Retained baby teeth, are when the adult tooth has already came in and the baby one in that same place hasnt fallen out. ANd so they have to remove them. I hope i explained that okay, lol. But at 6 months it could have still been a baby tooth. At the clinic where i work, there are lots of puppies who get spayed and neutered who still have baby teeth. But we dont pull them cause when the adult one comes in it will normally push out the baby tooth. Unless its like i said in the beginning where it is retained and the adult one is already in in which case it has to be pulled, cause it obviously isnt coming out on its own. I hope that made a little bit of sense, lol. I am terrible at explaining things in writing.
