Hi all,293959 my name is Nikki and i saved a baby squirrel which my dog brought home in his mouth nearly 6 years ago. She is part of our family now. I think we lover her to much because she never wanted to leave us... I was playing with her a few days ago and i noticed that she has growing a set of teeth behind her front upper teeth. Thy are growing kind of curved may go towards the roof of her mouth. I live in Louisiana and a vet is out of the question. I looked through posts and noticed that Florida allows them as pets. Pensacola is closest to me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Not to doubt what you are seeing but suspect it may be her (orignal) incisors have "just" grown too long.
Whatever the problem she does need to be seen by a vet. I will adjust your tittle and move to emergency as
whatever has caused this condition it is life threatening.

Thank you! I see the front teeth and they are fine, brownish in color. Behind them however there are two more teeth, thinner and pearly white! They are not very long now. Bur i am sure they will need to be taken care of soon. We would really like to see a vet that knows about this stuff and maybe take them out completely. She is playful as ever and eats well for now. Thank you for all your help!294021294022

Dr Emerson in Orange County Florida is the best when it comes to teeth

Thank you! could you give me an address for him of the name of his office. I cannot seem to find it on google. Do you know of anyone else more to the west of Florida. It will be about a 12 hour drive for us.
Thanks!
