How do I know if my dog’s teeth need to be pulled?

If your dog has a tooth that’s infected or the pulp is exposed, your dog is in pain and likely needs a tooth extraction….This means your dog:

  • Is losing gum tissue, bone tissue and/or roots.
  • Has one or more loose teeth.
  • Is likely in a lot of pain.
  • Is at higher risk for organ damage and a shortened lifespan.
  • At what age do puppies get their permanent teeth?

    When should I worry about my puppies teeth?

    If you notice a persistent deciduous tooth in your puppy’s mouth, schedule an appointment as soon as possible with your veterinarian.
