Hello, I am interested in a few questions about transplanting your own teeth. 1. If a wisdom tooth was removed a year ago, is it possible to transplant it now instead of another tooth? 2. If the donor tooth has caries, is it possible to transplant it?
Answer 1
January, 2021It is very difficult to remove tartar on your own. At home, this is usually done mechanically (scraped off with tweezers), but this is a bad way because the enamel of the teeth is so badly damaged. And if the enamel is damaged, other problems begin.
In addition, tartar is not only on the outer surface, but also goes under the gum. It is from under the gums that it is very difficult to remove it. Not only is it difficult, it is also painful. That is why such a procedure is carried out under anesthesia and local anesthesia.
As for anesthesia, you should not be afraid if inhalation anesthesia is used. Today it is the most manageable anesthesia that exists (it is used in human medicine). You can read more about gas anesthesia here: https://alisavet.ru/ingalyacionnaya-anesteziya-dlya-koshki-i-sobaki/
By the way, about dog sticks - yes, there is something to talk about, Therefore, we wrote a whole article about them (analysis of the composition and real reviews): https://zen.yandex.ru/media/id/5df36cfa34808200af963ad9/vsia-pravda-o-sobachih-palochkah-5ed7a8ec6637221c93c2fa25

January, 2021Thank you very much for your answer! The dog is 1.5 years old, a week ago on two canines, at the base, a yellow bloom began to appear. Natural food: in the morning - cottage cheese, in the evening - meat + vegetables. They began to give huge raw beef bones, which she cannot gnaw and gnaws all day. But it didn't get better. Smeared with dog-a-dent gel for 2 days, but it also does not help. The dog does not want to undergo anesthesia to remove the stone with ultrasound!

January, 2021If this is already tartar, then you will have to go to the veterinarian. If so far we are talking about a dense plaque, then you can try to do with grandmother's methods - a cotton swab with lemon juice or soda.
Just do not be tempted by the newfangled "cleaning bones"! The abrasive, due to which they brush their teeth, gets into the stomach and causes all kinds of complications! You wouldn't swallow emery or GOI paste, would you? Don't give this to your favorite!
