Did you know we also do some interventional dentistry?
Some pups, like Butter Bean pictured here with our RVT intern Madi, have an abnormal bite pattern. His lower canines and incisors are digging into the hard palate (the roof of his mouth), keeping his jaw from growing as it should. He's young enough that removing these baby teeth could allow his mouth to grow normally so he will have a normal, healthy bite as an adult! It doesn't always fix all of the issues, as some genetic factors are involved, but he will be more comfortable until we can assess his adult teeth later.
