The teeth of rabbits are constantly growing, that is why they need to keep on chewing hay and other fibrous materials to help keep their teeth at the proper height and size. However, malocclusion in rabbits is quite common. The condition is characterized by misalignment of teeth, resulting in their failure to be worn down properly without any restriction to their growth. If your pet’s teeth are misaligned or maloccluded, he will benefit from regular teeth clipping or trimming so he will be able to eat without any pain or discomfort. In cases of extreme malocclusion, there may be a need to remove the rabbit’s front teeth. A rabbit can still thrive even without his front teeth as long as his food is but into smaller pieces. While it’s easier to see misalignment of the front teeth, the back teeth need to be checked regularly by your veterinarians Salisbury, NC during your pet’s dental checks.
