I think it's worth the risk - and I think everyone at SaveABunny will agree. And there are other, much better alternatives to putting her down. If you don't have the funds, you might be able to get them donated if you ask around, or she might have a better chance adopted to someone else. If the vet told you the only other option was to put her down, I would suggest looking for a new vet. Best of luck and I hope everything works out. Karen -

Unfotunality she has very bad Maloclusion and needs to have her teeth extracted . I have talked to my Vet he has said the procedure is costly and there is a chance that they may grow back . I am nervous about putting her throught the surgery she had already had then filed down twice in three weeks. Can you please tell me the percentage of rabbits that have them grow back ? It is so stressful on her and myself. I just want to be sure she can live a fun filled life with me knowing I did the best thing for her . Because the only other alternitve is to put her down which I do not want to loose my sweet cookie. Sincerly Karen I have the sweetest bunny her name is Oreo Cookie .

It would be great to see what malocclusion looks like, for comparison. Great article! So glad that you guys were able to help sweet little Brazil! Any chance you have photos of her teeth?
