Would like some links to research and also of course opinions.
Retained baby teeth seem to be so common with Yorkies. Given that there is only one or two teeth and easily accessible, are there specialists that will pull these teeth without putting a Yorkie under? I know Razzle had two teeth in the front row, that didn't "drop out". My breeder and I went to a Russian vet, and in 5 minutes - those two teeth were pulled. No blood at all - they were ready to come out. It seems the European Union does things a tad differently.
Luckily so far at 4 yrs old Razzle does not need a dental. We clean his teeth daily, plus use the water additive which I highly recommend. And now he is not showing he gets his real bone once a week like Magic.
He has no tartar at all even on his back molars
But things can change so I was wondering if there are specialists that can do a dental without putting a Yorkie under. Especially a well behaved YOrkie. Oh yes my breeder does a de-scaling twice a year on him.
