nothing but the tooth
The cub has some dark spots/lines on his teeth, and I've been fretting over them. (I'm a mom, it comes with the territory.) I did two things about it, starting on the same day. I started brushing his teeth with baking soda, and instead of Cheerios for breakfast, he gets toast with ghee (from milk from pasture fed cows) on it. The ghee is to up his intake of vitamin K2, since he can't just take a pill like I do.
One or both of them is working. The spots are smaller and less distinct. I'm hoping it's just the iron in his liquid vitamins and that I've been fretting over nothing.
In other news, while brushing his teeth this evening, I noticed the first canine tooth breaking through. Poor cub. I had hoped we'd have a rest for a few weeks between the last incisor and getting his fangs, but here they come. No wonder he hasn't been napping well.
