Overgrown teeth in rabbits are a common issue and can lead to serious health problems if not addressed. Unlike humans, rabbit teeth grow continuously throughout their lives. Proper diet, rich in fibrous hay, is crucial for natural wear. If teeth become too long, they can cause pain, difficulty eating, abscesses, and GI stasis, which is life-threatening. Observe if your rabbit is drooling, refusing food, or has wet fur around the chin. A vet visit is necessary for proper diagnosis and trimming by an experienced exotics vet.
