I noticed yesterday that Tseng's teeth seem to be different. At least I'm pretty sure it's different, I don't see his teeth a lot because he won't be handled so the only time I can look at them is when he's chewing, which is tough. Anyway the bottom teeth don't line up. At first I thought he'd lost one because I could only see one, but it looks like the other one is in there, just back farther. I really can't see any details though. Is this something I should worry about? Is a vet visit in order? On a side note, how do you guys with unhandleable chins check things like that?
 
Chin needs to be tamed to be able to handle. The incisor malocclusion can easily lead to molar malocclusion, it should be evaluated by a vet as to the degree.
