| Dangers of tooth extraction? Are there dangers in extracting the Canine teeth? I have to take Bandit in tomorrow as his are not coming out at the bottom, and the top ones are showing that they are coming but at the top of his gum under the lip. I feel so sorry for the poor little darling he is already a picky and scanty eater, now what will happen to him . i wonder if there are dangers in pulling teeth that are so solid in the jaw bones?

| Yes, there can be problems but not normally. When Lacy had her teeth pulled by a vet I used to work for, I watched. He told me that you had to be careful in pulling teeth because you can break the jaw if it's not done right. I think most vets know what they're doing though...never personally heard of anything going wrong.

| When did your dog's teeth start falling out? The vet said they should start coming out during the 4th month, but Riley is already 6 months and hes only lost 2 teeth so far. |
