dental care

Question
hello there,
My guinea pig is a 3yr old female, I dont know what breed she is. I recently just noticed that one of her teeth is hanging out of her mouth, as if it was too long, but its really wobbly. I dont have this prob with my other three Guinea Pigs...I was just wondering if they lose teeth and grow new ones, like humans do...
thanks, Leah
xx

Answer
Hello Leah,
guineapigs should not lose their teeth. While their teeth continue to grow they need to eat hay and other treats to keep their teeth healthy and trimmed down. I really suggest that you take her to see a vet as soon as possible because her tooth being loose could cause her to stop eating.
