Are my dog’s teeth healthy?
There are many signs that can indicate your dog may have periodontal disease.

Content: Permanent teeth usually start erupting around 4 to 5 months of age. All permanent teeth should be present by the time the dog is 7 months of age. The deciduous incisors, canine teeth, and premolars are replaced by permanent adult teeth along with molars. Signs your Dog will Lose a Tooth Soon
All puppies will go through a teething stage. It is important during this period of time as your puppy’s teeth are transitioning to provide your puppy with soft, flexible and bendable chews. If the chews are too hard to bend easily in your hand then they are too hard to give to your dog. Veterinarians recommend allowing these baby teeth to fall out on their own, do not try to pull them as these teeth have long roots and pulling them can lead to secondary infection. Is it Normal for Dogs to Lose their Teeth? It is normal for dogs to lose their baby or deciduous teeth starting around four to five months of age. It is not normal for dogs to lose their adult teeth unless affected by periodontal disease.
