Default Questions on teeth

When I got Piper she had horrible breath and teeth. Her canines were almost black they were so bad. After her first vet appointment the vet said that she had a retained baby canine and it would need to be pulled out. About a month later that baby canine fell out on its own. Is it normal to for them to lose a baby tooth at 1 year? I was a little shocked beings the vet said that it needed to be pulled.

I started feeding Piper a raw diet the end of August and today as I was doing her grooming I decided to make her let me look at her teeth. She seriously has no plaque on her teeth at all. Before you could see the plaque buildup on her teeth. Her canines have a little bit of a brown color to them at the gums but no longer black and she no longer has horrible breath. Is this from feeding her raw food or ???

I'm extremely happy with the leaps and bounds that she has made since we got her.
