Retained deciduous teeth, commonly seen in young pets, occur when the permanent teeth fail to displace the temporary teeth. The permanent tooth and deciduous teeth occupy the same location, causing crowding and damage to the permanent tooth. Dental crowding can also lead to rapid plaque accumulation. Retained deciduous teeth should be removed.

Missing permanent teeth is also a common problem. Missing teeth should be x-rayed to rule out the possibility of a retained or trapped tooth. A trapped tooth below the gumline can lead to a destructive, dentigerous cyst. Trapped teeth should be surgically removed.

If my pet is missing teeth or has retained baby teeth, I authorize the veterinarian to take necessary dental x-rays and/or remove the baby teeth to protect my pet's oral health. I understand that this will be an additional charge.*

Yes, I consent to this dental intervention if oral exam reveals retained or missing teeth, and I understand that this has additional costs.No, I do not consent and understand that I will need to speak to a veterinarian at the time of patient drop off.

If your pet is due for any vaccines, do you want us to provide them at the time of the procedure?
