And a rabbit can not eat without its back teeth to grind the food...

Re: Rabbit Teeth Porblems

It is common to have dental problem in rabbits because they have lot of hard food and stuffs in their diet. A diet full of food items that require chewing is essential. A healthy diet is necessary in the treatment of dental disease to minimize further damage and to attempt to prevent reoccurrence.

Re: Rabbit Teeth Porblems

Un fortunately, bad teeth can just be down to poor breeding, and no matter what you do some bunnys need regular checks and dentals.
I know as i had to make the decision in the end to put my bunny to sleep

Re: Rabbit Teeth Porblems

Incisor malocclusions (where the occlusal, or biting surfaces, do not match) typically are seen in rabbits in two different instances. First, in young rabbits born with facial abnormalities or suffering early facial trauma, and second, in older rabbits suffering with molar malocclusion. All rabbits have two upper and two lower incisors, as well as two small peg teeth that grow in behind the upper incisors. As all teeth in the rabbit's mouth are open rooted, they grow continuously throughout life, requiring proper contact with the opposing teeth for normal wear. Consequently, any rabbit suffering from malocclusionis affected with a life-long problem.

Re: Rabbit Teeth Porblems

All rabbit teeth are growing continuously and are known as hypsodonta or open rooted teeth. Although there is a set of deciduous teeth, they are non functional and shed perinatal. The permanent teeth are completely erupted by three to five weeks of age.
