The vet probably couldn't get a great look at her mouth with her being conscious but if her teeth are causing soft tissue lacerations or ulcers she certainly isn't going to feel much like munching due to the pain.

You can do an idiot check and feel under her jaw. if it feels bumpy it will be the molar roots growing down into the bone as there is nowhere else to go. I was shocked at how easily this could be felt on Jack.

Obviously not foolproof but still a quick way to check

I can't feel any bumps under her jaw, so thats a good thing!

Hi Joanne Wave

Meg is home now and eating like a horse!! Her teeth were very sharp and have left ulcers on her tongue, poor baby Crying or Very sad

I feel guilty for not realising before but she had never shown any signs before.

Thanks for asking about her Very Happy

I'm glad to hear Meg's doing better - you mustn't feel guilty hon, bunnies are designed to hide pain from us and it's so easy to miss. At least you caught it eventually, and she's got the help she needed; that's the main thing.

The terrible twosome send bunny cuddles.
