Differences for “ Teeth Trimming ”

Sugar**Sugar glider teeth DO <nowiki>DO NOT GROW.  Sugar gliders are
marsupials and not rodents.  Their teeth DO NOT GROW and DO NOT NEED TO BE
TRIMMED. TRIMMED.</nowiki>**
  
If you were to file, grind or trim the front two teeth, your animal would 
suffer endless pain probably for the rest of its life and it may even soon die 
from infection.  Trim your own teeth first please before trying it on your 
little sugar glider.
  
Please do not subject your little animal to such a procedure.  Any vet that 
would suggest this is obviously not an exotics vet and should be avoided at all 
costs and probably reported, at least to the community.
  
  Be aware that vets often refer to trimming as floating.  A "float"
is another name for a file, so floating is filing.  Always ask question of your
vet.  If you do not understand something, ask about it.  You are paying them to
get exactly what you want and not necessarily always what they think you want.
  
Healthy teeth should be long and pointy and should look like this.
