I am just curious if anyone has had any real success treating malocclusion by filing down spurs monthly and trimming front teeth. Also I would like opinions if you even consider this humane or not.
Right now we are waiting to hear back from the specialist to see what he wants to do and or suggests. This poor girl has the whitest teeth ( possibly not able to adsorb calcium?) They are in very bad shape, bottom obviously too long and broken off, Top looking crackly, Her entire jaw sits wrong and is hard to the touch almost like locked in place ( possible break? she was house with a rabbit and an extremely obnoxious kid), she keeps her mouth open even though the teeth aren't hitting the top of her jaw line. We haven't even been able to get to look at the back yet or get her in for x rays ( which we are waiting to hear back from the vet to see if he even wants to since there are such obvious problems or if he suggests euthanasia)
She has 2 obvious bumps about the size of half tic tacs on her left jaw protruding out the side when you feel it, nothing on the right side. I don't even want to know if I want to see what x rays will show. Her eyes are extremely watery and tear stained everywhere. She has a drool beard and she also as a URI. The URI and the pain combined is making it near impossible feeding her CC even on pain meds. Her poos are way too small. Like granules of sea salt now.
We do not want to force it cause of the pain but not want her gut to shut down either. We just got her in last night, The vet was out of office and we are waiting for a call back. He is supposed to be in today. We are considering just putting her down to end her suffering if we don't hear back from him with in a few hours. She is just a mess and miserable.
