I'm not understanding why a dog so young would have to have all their teeth pulled. I guess I was lucky my Newman passed away at age 10 years old and only lost one tooth and that was due to breaking it on a bone. We did have his teeth cleaned yearly though. Now, I also have a five year old Yorkie who I've had since 5 weeks and she has had no issues with her teeth. We also have her teeth cleaned yearly. I think that especially with small dogs this is very important to do to prevent things like this happening. I have a total of six Yorkies, five of which are at least three years old and NONE have had issues with their teeth. I hope your baby is alright.
