I don't know I you would call Betty a dental bunny but she has elongated tooth roots. We are managing the symptons rather than the cause due to her tiny flat faced head!
Betty has drops for her eye infections (par for the cause) but we have been very lucky so far. Betty had hardly any pellets and treats now and we feed her so much hay which is helping. We tried so many drops and flushing for the eye infections before finding maxi troll. But this isn't a long term option because of the steroids. She is about 2-3 and developed symptons at 1 year (just a few months after she came to us) so is prob genetic.
Having Walter to help with cleaning her eyes is amazing. At present she gets fur clouds from moulting and blocked tear ducts so we are grooming her so much and helping out with cloud removal with boiled water and a cotton bud to the corner of her eye. The clouds must annoy her though because she tolerates their removal!
There are loads of baby lops advertised locally at the moment and I always think they should come with a little 'May get bad teeth and cost you an arm and a leg'. If there was anything we could do I would pay anything I could to help her though.
I would be really interested in knowing how other people manage though and what to expect for the future for Betty? :wave:
