Scruffs has a loose tooth, and I think it needs to be pulled. It is on the bottom, and is very small (very small compared to the one on the opposite side). It is right behind the "fang" on the bottom. I don't know teeth terms, my apologies.

I suppose they need anesthesia for this, and is it a must do right away? It doesn't seem to be causing him pain, and it just wiggles. It isn't decayed and doesn't have plaque on the outside. Should I schedule an appointment tomorrow, then?
