If you find your dog's teeth fall off, don't panic. First observe the dog's condition and see if there are bleeding, infection, swelling or pain. If you do have the above symptoms, please take the dog to the veterinarian immediately for advice from a professional doctor.

If you do not find obvious adverse reactions, you can handle them yourself. Take the dog to a quiet, bright and dry place so that it can avoid disorder and unnecessary stress. Then check his mouth and find the falling teeth. Once the teeth are found, an airtight container should be found as soon as possible and placed in it.

If possible, add a small amount of water or saline to the container to prevent the teeth from getting infected during use. Take your teeth to the veterinarian as much as possible and have a professional examine it to determine if your dog's teeth need more treatment.

In addition, if the dog's teeth fall off naturally, appropriate care should be taken. Since its initial habit is used, if it loses its teeth, it needs to change its eating habits to adapt it to new physiological conditions.

This usually includes softer foods, such as dog food, regular food mud, or specially made liquid food to meet their nutritional needs. After gradually adapting to new eating habits, consider some additional care measures to ensure their oral health. This includes regular brushing, giving teeth grinding, food supplements, menu adjustments, and more. In addition, the dog should be taken to the veterinarian for oral examinations regularly and cared for and treated according to the guidance of a professional doctor.
