If it's not too far gone, it may resolidify if you don't mess with it. I.E., don't brush it. Take a Q-tip dipped in peroxide and clean around the area without pushing ... the peroxide will kill any bacteria in the area. |
Yeah it is an adult tooth. She is 7 years old and only has 2 or 3 missing, from previous to when I adopted her. She just had a dental cleaning when they had her down for her spay surgery about a month ago now. Her teeth are still very white and clean, they would have extracted any that were bad at that time but there were none that needed it.
She doesn't seem in pain or like she's playing with it. She does have a bit of bad breath but not sure if that is tooth related or not. Breath seems ok after brushing for the most part. The tooth isn't horribly loose but it wiggles a bit.
Can anyone else confirm that peroxide is ok to use around the area? I just want to make sure. I'll keep brushing the rest of the teeth but not the loose one.
