just tip that one lower to the same length as the other.
as the uppers grow, you will have to continue to trim lowers until they get where they all maintain themselves...
keep an eye on them...they otherwise seem normal as far as I can see..

I think the first photo is not clear enough :dono ... I see the problem because I see it with my eyes.. the upper teeth are not straight :shakehead .. the left tooth goes to the right dirrection.

I have too many sick squirrels!... and now Lou... :Cry

I see it iwonka... it's because the lower is longer and wearing the upper funny..
I think it may look like an over bite due to the way they are wearing..
I would not clip the uppers...
it won't hurt to make sure there are no sharp edges....
how did Lou break his teeth?

Lou is quite a good sport!!!:grouphug :Love_Icon :grouphug

Iwonka says he's not such a good sport. In fact he's the wildest one she's ever had... she still has to cover his eyes just to feed him. It was only because her daughter was there that she managed the pics and to cut his teeth.

It's because he's that wild that she had not noticed his tooth was broken; she's full of scratches and he will NOT be with any other squirrel, he hates them all and attacks them all... he even attacked Columbo and Kojak. ::shakehead

:Love_Icon Maybe he will feel better (be less wild) once his teeth are good! :Love_Icon
