Answer

Yes, overgrown teeth in rabbits are a common and serious concern. Rabbits' teeth grow continuously throughout their lives, and proper wear is essential. If their teeth become too long, it can lead to malocclusion, making it difficult or impossible for them to eat, causing pain, abscesses, and weight loss. This is often due to an improper diet lacking sufficient abrasive hay. It's important to have a vet examine your rabbit's teeth to determine if a trim or other dental procedure is necessary. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
