The main harms of double-row teeth in pet dogs:
First, those breast teeth that have not fallen off will affect the normal development of the permanent teeth, which will lead to severe deformity in the permanent teeth, causing deformity in the dog's bite, affecting the dog's daily diet.
Secondly, there is another danger in double rows of teeth that it is more likely to remain dirt, and food residue is more likely to be left between the two juxtaposed teeth, and it will be more difficult to clean, which will greatly increase the chance of bad breath and oral diseases in pet dogs.
Third, double rows of teeth can easily cause bacteria to grow in the mouth. In severe cases, it will cause gastrointestinal discomfort in the dog, and over time it will form periodontal disease, which may eventually lead to difficulty in eating, which will affect the lifespan of 1-2 years.
Solution to pet dogs having double rows of teeth:
First, during the process of dogs growing teeth and changing teeth (starting from 2 months of age), do not give them those soft foods, but let them eat some drier dog food. And ensure the dog's intake of calcium nutrition. Of course, it’s enough to have a moderate amount of calcium nutrition, too much or too little will have an impact on the health of the dog.
Secondly, during the process of a pet dog's teething and changing teeth, you must pay close attention to whether it can replace all its teeth normally. If you find a problem, you must solve it in time to prevent the occurrence of double-row teeth.
Third, during the process of dogs growing teeth and changing teeth, you can prepare some bone biting and glue for the dog to bite, use ropes to play tug-of-war games with them, and often use your hands to move your dog's baby teeth to loosen it.
PS: If your baby dog still has double rows of teeth after 1 year old, then don’t be depressed. Take it to the dentist quickly. If necessary, remove the dog’s baby teeth.
