Noticed this on my 3 and a half yo today.The top gum looks like it has a hole and you can see the tooth coming through or something and also the bottom one.Is it normal or does he need the dentist,vet or to have his tooth removed ?

No its not normal. l would get a Vet who also does dentistry to have a look at him. If you say what area you are in someone might be able to suggest a suitable Vet.

Can't edit my other post now, you could send a photo to your vet and ask what they think. Ive got a photo of one of my horses teeth and its not quite the same but some similarities and hers are okay now, I will put the photo on later, can't do it on my phone.
 
These were taken when she was three and a half.

So did yours have them taken out? I sent pictures to my vet who has told me just to keep an eye on him.It is more the hole on his top gum i am worried about and wondering what needs done with that.But i did send the pics to his dentist as well,he asked me to text him so i will text him back tomorrow and see what he says as well.
