Finding teeth in your dog’s toys or in the bowl of food is common when it comes to puppies, as these are the ways in which puppies are more likely to eventually lose a baby tooth that has been loosening.
However, when an adult dog loses its teeth, these are the teeth that must be kept for life, and lost adult teeth will not be replaced, but they do indicate that something is happening with your dog’s teeth.
In this video, we will answer the question “what does it mean if an adult dog loses teeth?” And we will cover some of the most common causes of this happening. Keep reading to get more information.
1. Retained milk teeth.
First of all, if you find a tooth that your dog has lost, it is important to hang it to show it to your veterinarian, that it is not just a curiosity, because some adult dogs can retain one or more of their milk teeth, which can be lost later in life, or not!
If for some reason the adult teeth of your dog do not push the baby’s teeth, perhaps because there are no adult teeth, or the teeth are full in the gums and can not descend properly, your dog will probably hold the baby’s teeth in place .
2. For bumps and injuries.
An injury or impact can cause the fracture of the teeth that will then fall, or damage one or more teeth completely. However, an impact has to be quite acute for this to happen, such as being hit in the face by a hard toy, crashing into something or being hit by a car.
3. Poor dental health.
Few dog owners are as attentive as they should be to cleaning and caring for their dog’s teeth, which means that the vast majority of adult dogs will show signs of plaque, tartar and the onset of tooth decay once they are a few years old. .
4. An adult dog loses teeth due to malnutrition.
Dogs do not have to be underweight to be malnourished, since feeding the dog with the wrong types of food can lead to overweight and, at the same time, lack the essential nutrients they need to thrive and maintain healthy teeth.
5. Other health conditions.
Certain diseases and health conditions can lead to poor dentition, weak and loose teeth and tooth loss in dogs as well, particularly if they are not diagnosed, and therefore, without treatment for a long period of time.
6. Side effects of medications.
An adult dog loses teeth also because of this. The use of certain types of medications and veterinary treatments can also potentially compromise and weaken your dog’s teeth, which in turn can lead to tooth loss.
