I’d appreciate some insight on this because I’ve never heard of this before. My Maltese puppy went to the vet for a check up and she told us that she recommends getting his baby tooth removed, the one that’s behind his adult canine tooth. She said it’s a standard and common procedure done because keeping it in increases the risk of dental cavities because it’s so close to his other tooth. Is this really a necessary procedure to do?
