I took my bun bella to the vets last week to have her molars filed down,the vet filed them right down to her gum line but shes still drooling.The only other thing is she doesnt close her mouth im wondering if this is causeing it,She had her incisors removed a year and a half ago.
Shes eating and seems back to her normal self,surely it cant be her teeth again?
 
i cant see that it will still be her teeth causing problems if she only had them done last week. perhaps her mouth is sore from the treatment and this is causing it. i would be tempted to take her back to the vets to put my mind at rest if she were mine to rule out a gum infection.

Yeah i think im going to take her on tuesday as my cats booked in then. Apart from that she seems fine she still doesnt want to eat much fruit or veg but shes eating her usual food ok.
As he filed her teeth right down they maybe are still a bit sore.
Thanks for replying.
 
I took her yesterday and the vet thinks she has bitten her gum and got a slight infection.He let me have a look and you could see on her gum a little red dot where it looks like shes caught it. He gave her a painkilling injection and shes on baytrill and already she doesnt seem to be drooling as much.
