Dental check up?

Peter is going for a dental check up later. He had his last dental two weeks tomorrow.

I am so nervous. He has been going three weeks between dentals and the vet doesn't think it is a good idea to keep doing them. :( I am hoping his mouth is clear, but after three weeks he stops eating and starts dribbling. I am worried that after two weeks the vet will see signs. :(

Lots of good teeth vibes for Peter please. xx

Sending vibes for Peter xx

Sometimes the time between dentals can be lengthened by burring the offending tooth/teeth right back to the gum. It doesn't always work, but it's certainly worth a go :wave:
 
Poor little guy :( I went through this with my dental bun Archie when he was having dentals a few weeks apart, the time between his dentals eventually did increase to 6 weeks. Fingers crossed for Peter and lots of vibes xx
 
The vet said Peter HASN'T got any spurs yet. His mouth is sore but not ulcerated. He may have an infected mouth - that is why the vet thinks he has gone off his food this evening. :?

He is back on pain killers and antibiotics for ten days.

Fingers crossed for atleast another two weeks of a spur free mouth. ;)
