I am talking about the small teeth between the canine (fangs) teeth. The
very front top 2 teeth and the bottem front 3 teeth.

...........these teeth don't do too much unless your dog eats raw meaty
bones - then they come in handy. I don't know how common it is for them to
get worn down and fall out, but I bet it's not unheard of. I don't think
I'd worry about getting dental work done on them to save them. I guess more
important is why they're falling out to begin with. There are doggy
dentists out there who might give you a better idea of what's going on.
Maybe you're brushing too hard. I had a dentist tell me once that I was
brutalizing my gums!
