Vet just called, said she had cavities in that tooth that caused it to break off. It’s just being held in by a little bit of whatever right now. Her upper canine on the same side has a similar problem, the gum is very inflamed and that tooth needs to come out (it’s loose).
But the rest of her teeth and gums look good. He said it was probably from some sort of viral thing she had as a kitten. Having both canines on the same side removed will make her lip a little odd on that side, he said it would make her “look stupid”, but stupid is better than dead.
She can come home after three this afternoon.
