Is it normal for my 4-month-old kitten's fang teeth to be falling out?

That appears to be a deciduous (baby) tooth. You can see the adult tooth near it and next to the other canine on the right side. If she will allow and you can do it safely, wipe the tooth with a piece of gauze. It should come away. Have her examined by your veterinarian tomorrow. She may need a dental x-ray to rule out retained roots.kittens will begin to lose teeth between 3-4 months of age. By 7 months, the adult teeth should be fully erupted.

Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! Yes, puppies and kittens have baby teeth just like people. They usually are done shedding their baby teeth by 3-4 months of age. The adults should all be fully erupted by 6 months. If Willow is losing teeth at 11 months it could be her adult teeth and I would have her looked at by your Vet to see if she has dental disease. Also sometimes the baby teeth become retained and do not shed on time. Sometimes we remove these retained baby teeth at the spay or neuter. She could be losing retained baby teeth. https://www.petcoach.co/article/oral-and-dental-anatomy-of-dogs-cats-and-ferrets/ (mid article refers to baby teeth). I wish you and Willow the best!

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Taco. Most kittens will begin the teething process around 4 months of age. It can last for several months. So this is likely still normal. I hope this information helps!

Hi, what you are seeing is his adult teeth coming in and his baby teeth haven't fallen out yet. this does not cause pain and is not a medical issue unless he gets to be over 1.5 years and they have not fallen out. The retained baby teeth can get food stuck in them and cause dental disease. I would not worry about it until his is older. Good luck, I hope this helps!

Typically the baby premolars will fall out between 16-20 weeks of age, so it could be possible that Chid has pulled out his adult teeth, but from the picture, these do not look like adult teeth. I suspect that his premolars are later coming out, and that's what he pulled out. I would have him seen by a vet just to be safe, and show the vet the teeth. I hope this helps!

Congrats on your new kitten! Usually all baby teeth are replaced by adult teeth by 6 months of age. So if Luci does not have an adult canine tooth by 6 months it could indicate an issue with her dentition. Perhaps at the time of her spay dental x-rays could be taken if her adult tooth does not emerge. Sometimes after the loss of a tooth part of the tooth root is retained. X-rays can ensure that the root is not still present. Retained roots can cause health issues later in life.

I am sorry to hear about your concerns!!! It sounds like your kitten is of the age when it is getting its final adult teeth (usually 6-7 months) so it is possible your kitty is just losing her baby teeth. When kittens are teething sometimes they do have a bad breath/odor while they are teething. When the teeth fall out we can have some bleeding at the gums as well. If the bleeding was prolonged, your kitty is having trouble eating or is lethargic or pawing at her mouth, I would recommend an exam by the vet to look at the oral cavity to ensure there aren't any signs of infection, a foreign body stuck in the gums, or ulceration. Best of luck to you and Nala!
