Speedy has dental problems, hes starving. I went to the vet, and she trimmed his molars, but, the xray is disturbing. I'm not a doctor, but do not really like how it seems that X ray, sometimes, i think he dislocated his jaw, other he has broke his jaw, or simply is a genetic problem. Any advice, suggestion, opinion are welcome. Ty in advance.

This is the Xray, i caught it with my phone, not the best cuality, but i see a lot of conclusion problems.

I deal with a lot of guinea pigs with dental issues, and I have never found one to have a dislocated or broken jaw, despite lots of vets diagnosing that. Where about are you based? Are you in the UK?

Desesperation, and the low level of the first molar tooth, he cant chew even with closed jaw with that tooth, but I'm not doctor.
I'm in Spain, I'm looking only for opinions and wisdom ... waiting for a miracle.
I was feeding him and sometimes the only way was opening his mouth, so, i was afraid of having injured speedy ...

TY for replys, currently i dont think in disclocation, just lack of vitamin C and genetic bad form of the teeth ...
 
I think if you could get the teeth sorted properly, the jaw issue would resolve.
TY, I entered in panic mode, i think your advice its the best aproach. Yesterday the pet doctor trimmered and tried to sort all the mess. How can i make my pet to eat something solid ?.
