Hi all,
My Leia had 3 teeth removed 12 days ago. All went well but now I'm noticing that the bottom canine is digging into her top lip creating a small wound. This has never happened before. The photo shows how the tooth digs into the skin and the little wound. Her mouth would close normally before the tooth removal.Any ideas?

They seem to do this on the holidays, don't they? However, this one is not life-threatening, so that's to the good. I'd hesitate to try home remedies on mouth wounds. I'd wait until tomorrow, and give your vet a call.

I KNOW this has been discussed on here before, probably more than once, but I cannot get the search engine to bring anything up...then again, I am notoriously poor at searches. I never get the right key words. "Tooth cutting mouth" does NOT work!
