My hamster fell and broke both his front upper teeth, will they grow back?

Yes


their upper front teeth grow quickly


thats part of the reason why they gnaw on objects


such as pieces of wood


to keep them short


dont worry


your hamster should be fine


if you want to be sure go to the vet and ask

My hamster fell and broke both his front upper teeth, will they grow back?
Yeah, I think so anyway.
Reply:yes but i would still take him to the vet to make sure they were a clean break. other wise nerve damage could be done and or dead teeth. just as a precaution:)
Reply:ouch i hope it feels better but yes they should grow back but it depends how badly broken they are is it really serious? if it is really serious then no its teeth might not grow back all the way
Reply:yes they will
Reply:While the teeth will grow back due to the fact that a hamsters teeth are constantly growing you may want to take her to the vet. If the roots of the teeth were damaged in the fall the teeth will grow out and in at the same time. The teeth can actually grow the wrong way and into the skull. Also while she has no top teeth her bottom teeth will continue to grow and you may wind up with a maloclusion due to the overgrowth of the bottom teeth.





Take her to the vet and see what they think is my advice.
