dental spurs in rabbits

[patches2593]

so all of a sudden my rabbit is acting really weird. on his mouth, it looks like one sides poofy (not sure if it rlly is) and hes been really skittish. his eyes are wide open and he seems scared. he's been breathing heavily too. when i saw his mouth when he stood up it literally looked like he had no teeth. i picked him up and his teeth looked fine and the usual. what should i do. even when i gave him a treat he was chewing with his mouth wide open like a cow does

what are dental spurs? could these be it?

what should i do? :? :shock:

I'd get him to a vet. He could have a tooth abscess or something else going on that you can't see. But if his mouth hurts, then he'll slow down/stop eating, and that is never good.

I would take him to the vet. Breathing heavily could be a pain response for something. If its his teeth, the vet will file them down.
