I got back from holiday and noticed Domino's tooth was had a crack down one side and it goes all the way to the top. Its also yellow. It doesn't seem to bother her, but as we all know they hide things. She's still a good weight and is being her usual self. She has never liked me looking at her mouth or doing anything she doesn't like.
Should i let it grow out or does it need a vet visit?
 
If her weight is stable and she’s eating ok I’d leave it for now.

Do keep an eye on it though. Are her incisors straight?
 
Yeah they're fine. The tooth is a bit splintered with the crack up the side, but straight
 
Do you have a photo?

This was Percy’s tooth

The vet told me he had damaged his enamel. It cleared up by itself once it had grown out.
 
I cant really get a photo of it as she won't let me. Shes not the most cooperative at times
 
I went to the vets for peace of mind and she's absolutely fine. No infection, nothing else going on either. The vet gave me a few things to look out for, but other than that it'll just grow out normally. She also cut her nails and Dom gave her the same treatment she gives to me, which I felt a bit bad about.
