How long does it take for a Bichon Frize to lose its teeth? Bichons usually lose their teeth between 4 and 12 months after birth. Most baby Bichons will have all their permanent teeth when they are about 8 months old. Some Bichons lose their teeth earlier or later. This is related to the dog's own physique, the food he eats and the environment in which he grew up. Generally, a time difference of 1-2 months is normal.

Generally, Bichon Frize puppies begin to grow their deciduous teeth 20-30 days after birth. The front teeth will all grow about 4-6 weeks after birth, and all the deciduous teeth will grow around 2 months old.

After all the deciduous teeth have grown in, the Bichon Frize will enter the tooth replacement stage. Generally speaking, the period from 4 months to one year old is the tooth replacement stage for Bichon Frize dogs. The only difference is that some Bichon Frize dogs develop slowly and change their teeth later. Generally speaking, there is no problem if there is a time difference of 1-2 months, and parents do not need to worry too much.

During the teething period, Bichon Frize dogs will like to chew things due to gum pain and itchiness. Therefore, it is best for parents to collect and hide things that cannot be chewed at home, and things such as wires should be hidden or wrapped to prevent dogs from damaging furniture or even hurting themselves. You can prepare dog chews or large bone sticks for your dog to grind his teeth and relieve the itching and pain of teething.

And calcium is very needed during the tooth replacement period. You can use dietary supplements to supplement calcium for Bichons. For example, eat foods with high calcium content such as tofu, fish, dried shrimps, etc. to supplement calcium. If parents don’t have that much time to prepare complementary food for their dogs, they can also buy pet-specific calcium tablets or calcium powder to supplement their dogs’ calcium.
