Timeline of puppy teething
Absztrakt
The changes in dentition throughout the early months of a puppy’s life appear to be
characteristic, so it seems likely that the state of individual teeth and their relationship to each
other can be related to age. Examining the dentition by inspection is also a quick method that
does not require any equipment, and it can also be objectively documented, which could be
extremely useful during official actions against the illegal puppy trade. If the method proves to
be reliable, it is expected to be an important pillar of future legal proceedings. In this study, we
analyzed the teething of puppies from different breeds or mixed breeds throughout the age range
of 1 week up to 4 months of age.
