21 Oct 2017. A rare discovery of a likely early stage carnassial tooth abscess. The dog is not happy with further examination. See image taken. 
Carnassial tooth abscess starts from the infection of the roots of the carnassial tooth, also known as the 4th premolar tooth. The gums swell and later, a non-healing wound appears on the facial area below the right eye.

In this early stage, there is no facial wound. The video is educational to show an early stage of carnassial tooth abscess. Dental examination yearly is advised for dog owners during yearly vaccination.
