What are "Wolf Teeth" in rabbits?

Wolf teeth refer to the protruding or elongated teeth that can occasionally develop in rabbits, particularly in some breeds. These teeth are usually the first premolars and are referred to as "wolf teeth" because of their sharp and sometimes elongated appearance. When these teeth become prominent, they can interfere with a rabbit's ability to eat properly, causing discomfort or even pain. This makes it essential for rabbit owners and caretakers to monitor their dental health closely.

While other options may touch on aspects of rabbit teeth and dental health, they do not precisely define what "wolf teeth" represents in this context. For instance, while teeth used for gnawing or oversized teeth might be involved in discussions about general dental anatomy, they do not accurately encapsulate the specific issue of protruding teeth that can affect a rabbit's health and eating habits. Similarly, a general dental health issue isn't specific enough to address the particular implications of wolf teeth on a rabbit's well-being.
