发帖数: 450 | 1 i have a small chihuahua, when i adopted him, the shelter already pulled out
most of his teeth. the only teeth left were his big molar teeth in the
back and the canine teeth in front.
i dropped him off for a dental cleaning today. and got a call from the vet
office saying some of his teeth were loose and infected and they recommend
to be extracted
I asked exactly which teeth. the vet seems to be really vague. first, he
said the small teeth behind the molar teeth. I asked which position? the
lower left? lower right? upper left? then he said, no, he suggested pulling
out the lower left molar teeth and the one behind it, and upper right ones.
then i got really uncomfortable. i told him, no extractions today. Did i
do the right thing? i definitely would feel more comfortable after getting a
second opinion. but can a vet tell if a teeth need to be pulled or not
without anesthesia? | r*****a

不过一般情况下如果这个vet说该拔，你再问另一个，很可能也会建议拔的，不管诊断
用不用麻醉，拔的时候肯定要再次麻醉
换个地方看看到底是不是严重到一定得拔吧，bless
out
