Shaving teeth down, hmm, that's a new one on me! Looks like they do do it, but some of the pulp is removed. Might end up referring you to a doggie dentist. |
I'm pretty positive it's just the fact that his bottom teeth are poking into the top. It doesn't seem extremely painful, just like he can never fully get his mouth in a comfortable spot. All of his teeth look good to me, but of course I'm no professional, LOL, so maybe there is something I'm not seeing. He's eating hard kibble just fine and willingly, etc, so I'm not sure.
Yup, I know, I did some reading about how they shaved teeth down for things like that. I saw a few other things where people had to do it in the same type of over-bite situation. We do have a doggy dentist in the area but I am almost sure they'll recommend some kind of braces or something (I read about this happening too), and well, I can't even afford my own braces so my dog isn't getting them before mine are finished.
I'll let you guys know what the vet says!
