Does your puppy or kitten have more teeth than they should? Have you noticed their baby teeth sticking around? If so they can end up causing serious problems. This is what you need to know!For most dogs and cats, the deciduous baby teeth are all present by 2 months of age, and then become replaced by the adult teeth by 6 months. In some breeds it is more likely that some baby teeth fail to fall out.Retained teeth can push the adult teeth out of normal alignment, causing problems. they can also result in food becoming trapped, something that can quickly lead to advanced dental disease.At the standard spay/neuter age of 5-6 months, one of the pre-op checks should be for retained teeth. These can then be removed at the same time without the need for a second anesthetic.Head over to the full show notes and download my free guide to keeping your pet as healthy as possible
