Dental problems are very common in rabbits fed a bad diet with low hay content.
This is due to rabbit's teeth continuously growing and so wearing down as they chew the hay. When not enugh hay is fed the teeth will overgrow and can make eating very difficult.
Severe dental problems can even be fatal if not picked up early.
Clinical signs your rabbit may have a dental problems and needs pet dental care include:
A reduction in appetite
A discharge from one or both eyes
Smaller and fewer faecal pellets
Drooling
A dirty back end
