loose tooth

[AtomicSkies]

last night we noticed one of fayes front teeth is super loose as in i wont be shocked if it has fallen out within the next couple of days...it dosent seem to bother her at all and when she was last at the vet he said her teeth were fine...she will be going in to the vet within the next couple of weeks for other things and ill ask him then but its not really a big deal right? i mean i know it could be if her teeth were bad but they arnt...oh and yes we have already started calling her snaggletooth...silly girl

I'm not sure - she could get an infection in there if it's really lose & gets food stuck under it etc. I'd just give the vet a call to see what they recommend. In the meantime I'd keep an eye on it and keep it clean around there.

Maybe there's something they can do to make sure she doesn't lose it????

thats true about the food i didnt even think about it...hrm...i dont think theres any saving it ya know when a kid has a tooth that is so loose they can literally make it go almost horizontal with their mouth thats how it is on her...the vet was doing surgeries today so maybe ill try and call him tomorrow...but i will keep an eye on it

OK - I wasn't sure how far gone it was. In that case I'd just keep an eye on it and make sure she doesn't get any food stuck in there. How old is she?
