Teddy is just going to be 2. His teeth look sparkling to me (at least what I can see). The triangulated teeth show as the roots touching on the permanent teeth. At t his point, he has no teeth problems that we notice. He chews his food, has not digestive issues, has no rotten breath. The trangulated tooth roots are on permanent teeth and the vet says he WILL have problems ... so they should just come out. The front bottom teeth is because he says there is gum disease at 50%. Again, they look great to us and he sure doesn't have any problem pulling on toys, eating, etc. I guess my thought is that he should keep his teeth as long as he can and we should just be on the lookout for problems. The real issue is that the vet didn't take out the baby teeth as we requested, since he was waiting for approval to take out an additional 15. So, he got the neuter and a tooth cleaning ... and came out still having his one lower incisor baby tooth just where it was when he went in. I am getting a second opinion and I'll post what that vet has to say. Thanks for your comments. I just have a concern about ANYONE (dog or human) having 15 teeth removed and then trying to eat and do what they did before without teeth.
