I posted a few weeks ago when one of my bunnies - Sammy - had suspected pasturella. However, when I finally got to see my 'rabbit' vet, he said that he had a back left molar growing into the roof of his mouth - it had caused a horrible ulcer and obviously put Sammy off his food. Last week he had a sedation and vet filed down back molars and said his upper teeth had stopped growing (he will be 8 this month). He is now back to normal thank goodness, running round, eating and happy. However, vet is worried that same problem will come back and we will be having to sedate him regularly, which obviously at his age is a bit of a worry.
Does anybody have experience of this - can back molars be completely taken out - how risky is it.
Any advice gratefully received.
