Hey everyone, I'll try to keep this short
I'm after a bit of advice. I've finally convinced my OH that Pip needs to have her incisors removed. They first went wonky in Feb and shes had many burrs since then and they sadly haven't straightened.
Most of her dentals have been conscious, but she's had to have 2 anathestics due to us leaving it too long during lockdown and she got a spur on a molar. [emoji24] our vets would only see emergency appointments until Sept!
We are having to get her teeth burred between 2-6 weeks depending on the vet she sees and how short they are trimmed. Although she copes really well with the procedure and starts munching straight away. I dont want to keep taking her for the rest of her life which could be another 5-7 years.
Now there is no rwaf recommended vet near me, my current vet was a silver and I've noticed they have been removed. I believe this is due to a particular vet leaving.
This vet has opened a new practice and I've booked Pip in for a second opinion at this practice.
I have no idea what I need to ask in terms of the operation? Has anyone had this done? It sounds like a horrid procedure and I'm so scared of it going wrong. I know it's in her best interests though. Is there anything I need to consider in terms of Pros and Cons of having it done?
She's had no xrays done. Her teeth are only out by about 3mm, which makes it more difficult to see because they grow under her top lip. She's so teeny which such a tiny mouth, it doesn't take long for them to get too long!
Our current vet has been really good with her and I can't decide where is best to go. I'm in serious worry mode.
