My wee stray Felix has yet again got teeth problems.
He has a baby incisor that should have come out but hasn't and will not stop growing. It interferes with his eating by growing slightly sideways. He has had the tooth removed twice. The first time the vet said that they couldn't get the root bud and the second time, they managed to get a bit of it and hoped it had been killed.
Yesterday, I noticed him taking a little more care than usual and the tooth is growing again. I have no problem with taking him to have it removed, but I think it is such a shame for him - and a risk - to be having GAs so often.
Is there anything that my vets could try that a specialist would recommend? I am sure they would be happy to take advice if it were offered.
I don't know how old Felix is but suspect he is 3 or 4. He doesn't eat hay and not much grass and has a leaky eye. He has had his back teeth checked and they are fine. It is just his rogue incisor that is the problem.
