Toothless bunny question

The newest bunny member of our family is the amazing Baloo that we adopted from rescue. He has had his incisors removed and I was wondering if having his mouth open was a by product of the surgery. It seems like he rarely closes his mouth all the way. It's cute though. He is soooo special. I'm going to attempt to download a picture. First time for me so we will see how it goes.

Sorry for the blurry pic...I'm not as talented as the lot of you are!:lol:

Hmm not sure either but he is gorgeous and so darn cute.
If vet thinks hes ok wouldnt worry. My girl has no front teeth but her mouths shut maybe its just his way! As long as his mouth seems ok when eating etc then your fine.

Our Jess has no incisors and looks just the same, and she's fine, so I assumed it was just because she had no teeth.

When were his teeth removed.

Thanks! He is one laid back guy and he eats really well. I luv him

I do wonder how often teeth grow back in after being removed, has anyone had that happen?

Jess has one peg tooth that comes back, but it is easily nipped off.

I believe it was July 2008.

Thanks for your responses, I feel much better.
