Ok first of all yes he will be going to the vet. But I would like some insight from others first to see if perhaps I am just being paranoid about the whole thing. I got him from a friend not sure how old he was or is but he is around 4-5 months approx from what I can tell of his development. Now I check out his mouth as much as I can and I noticed one of his front canine teeth looked funny, it looked funny like smaller or more blunt than the other one. I kept an eye on it and noticed it was also loose.. none of his other teeth looked like this or were as loose as that one. Then a few days later it had fallen out, but I see no sign of his permanent tooth erupting yet in that space. It is not bleeding or bothering him as far as I can tell but in all the other dogs I have had when the baby teeth fell out you could already see the new one coming through.. my pup just has a small opening where the tooth was. Is this normal or should I be more concerned than I already am?
Can anyone give me advice about my pup's teeth?
Good for you that he's going to the vet. I'm glad to see that you're concerned. I wouldn't worry about it though. Sounds very normal. Have the vet take a look. Puppies lose teeth in spurts and the adult ones come in at various times.
Reply:Sometimes the adult tooth is following right in behind the puppy tooth, sometimes it takes a day or two to show up.. I wouldn't get all bent out of shape about it yet...
Reply:Its normal. Puppies lose their teeth. My puppy is 6 months old. I haven't found any of her teeth yet. Don't worry.
Reply:Adult teeth start to erupt within a few days of losing a tooth, and you'll notice your puppy has started a reign of terror, mouthing everything, chewing like there's no tomorrow.
Reply:Try brushing and flossing his teeth like you would do yours then if that doesnt work take it to a vet.
