Oh my-eyes open!!! YAY!!! And little teeth-vampire or not-she is ADORABLE!!!!!!

stovesj · 08-17-2008, 09:56 AM

Awwwww......look at those little eyes!!!! Do you suppose she might be getting her teeth early because of the cleft palate? I wonder if her teeth may have been closer to the surface....hope this makes sense...because of the cleft.

Glad to see all the progress...congrats Dena!!!!

Hellooooo Baby Emma!!!!! You are so beautiful!!! Everyone here loves you!! (I'm crying as I'm writing this...what a sap I am - LOL)

Mom2BabyNatalie · 08-17-2008, 10:26 AM

Email just received from the DVM at the new hospital where Emma may be receiving care...... I emailed her the photos of Emma's teeth this morning. (On a SUNDAY.... with a almost IMMEDIATE REPLY... ON A SUNDAY!!! lol, I love these people already!!)

<<<<<I am shocked by the teeth coming in -- I have e mailed all of this to the surgeon I told you about -- she is on her way to Houston to work with a dental specialist - so maybe they will have some ideas. I will let you know when I hear.>>>>>

So, we wait....

Oh I think I like them as well, they replied back right away, that's ALWAYS good! Hopefully the surgeon can speak with the dentist and hopefully this is something normal with pups that have cleft pallets or cleft lips.

Okay, on another note... I have a question for you guys that have cleft babies......

Teeth................. OMG, Emma has TEETH!!! And not in a very good place either, considering.... one lil' razor sharp toofie on either side of the cleft...

Good gosh, she's 13 days old!! She shouldn't have TEETH!!

I started seein' lil' white "spots" in her mouth day before yesterday... then they looked like little pimples and I thought she was starting to get a lil' oral infection.... then over last night and this morning... BOOM... TEETH!!!

She looks like a lil' vampire bat!!

Should I be crazy over this??

Hmmm, Teeth already! I don't think Zacchie got his teeth that soon, but I wouldn't worry about it.

It might be possible, due to the severity of the cleft. Zaccheus' cleft is just his palate, not his lip. So I don't know what difference that would make.

Teeth:

The reason she has teeth all over everywhere is because the cleft probably split many of the tooth-buds in half, creating an extra tooth for every one that is affected. This would mean that they could have been displaced to other areas of the palate as well as the gums.

I was told that no teeth would grow in the cleft area but that was wrong. We had a few teeth in very wrong places that simply had to be removed.

lulababy · 08-17-2008, 10:50 AM

I'm not surprised she has the "tooth slivers" in wierd places... just that she has them so early..... 13 days is pretty early for any pup - but as long as it's not bothering her, I guess I won't dwell on it....

ace611 · 08-17-2008, 11:07 AM

OMG!!! She is Beautiful with her eyes open! I have been waiting for them to open! Its awesome that your found a vet to work with her! What a good day for the two of you!

DvlshAngel985 · 08-17-2008, 11:34 AM

The moment we had been waiting for!!!! This is so great that her eyes are finally open. CONGRATS DENA AND EMMA!!!!

Oh shoot! Why am I now getting behind on all the good news!!!!

Teeth already???? That's interesting. Please keep us updated on those wonderful new vets and what they say about the teeth. I really hope they are able to help. Glad that so far they're at least quick to respond, here's hoping that's a good sign....
