tooth care

Question
my 5 month old black lab mix has a busted canine tooth and i was wondering if it will grow back.

Answer
Hi, it depends on whether it is a puppy tooth or an adult tooth.  He is currently going through teething, so it is a good possiblity it was a puppy tooth, in which case it will fall out and the adult tooth will come through.  If for some reason the tooth doesn't get pushed out by an adult tooth then you will need it to be pulled so that there will be room for the adult tooth to come in.  If it is an adult tooth, you would need to have a vet check it out to make sure the nevre isn't exposed.  Hope this helps,
