Fractured Tooth
Taffy had to go visit her friend the vet today, so I was lucky enough to go visit my ex-work. About a week ago, Taffy fractured her upper left premolar. I'm guessing it happened while chewing on a bone, but I'm not sure. Either way, she freaked out when I was brushing her teeth this past Friday, so we got an appointment. Because the fracture was caught early, the tooth is able to save. There is pulp exposure, which is why it's so painful. She goes back in Monday morning for a dental procedure consisting of a pulp cap on the tooth and a full dental cleaning. Might as well get the rest of the cleaned up while she's under. I'm sure everything will go just fine, but I will still be worrying on Monday. That's just how it goes.
