A friend's horse had it's teeth done about 6months ago and the vet found a loose tooth, he told her it was ok to leave until the next time they are checked (in 6mths) but he would take it out at that point.
She had the teeth looked at again today by the same vet and when she booked the appointment she told them it was for a tooth extraction aswell as rasping.
The vet came and sedated the horse ready to take out the tooth but when he looked he said it was no longer loose so no need to remove it.
Has anyone heard of this before, a tooth that was loose, but 6 months later wasn't? If so how does this occur (the vet just said 'sometimes this happens')?
Thanks in advance!
