Hi, not posted for a while.
Miffy my eldest bun of 2 1/2yrs has dental disease. She's had numerous dentals to burr down her molars since August 2007. In Feb 2008 she had 1 molar removed and recovered very well and didn't need another dental until Aug 2008 and managed until Jan 09 without needing any more dentals. Teeth were burred again on 2/1/09 and then again yesterday after we noticed increased teariness in her eye. Our lovely vets have informed us her roots are now growing backwards, they've removed another molar but i'm just wondering does anyone know what the prognosis for her is likely to be?
She won't eat hay and has gone into GI stasis in the past when we've slowly removed all other food options so we can't do that again.
I'm just wondering how many teeth can they remove? And is it gonna be in the near future that we have to decide to let her go
Does anyone have any advice or any expertise in this area??
Thanks xx
