The fish enjoys a new, perfect smile after visiting the dentist

Here's Goldie – a friendly puffer who always seems to be in a happy and optimistic mood. And to loving fish owner Mark Byatt, her joyful spirit is contagious!

She has such a wonderful personality! Overall, she is a very happy fish. Mark Byatt admitted

Fish with too long teeth

A puffer like Goldie has teeth that stick together like a single large tooth. This tooth never stops growing to compensate for the heavy wear and tear caused by the shellfish diet.

Mark was concerned that this would make it difficult for her to eat eventually, so he took her to the experts at the Sandhole Veterinary Center for professional help.

We used a fish-safe anesthetic and Nurse Debbie kept her in a towel, repeatedly placing her back in the water. – wrote the clinic.

The operation was a success – and Goldie gained a much healthier smile

Treatment by a vet makes Goldie much easier to eat. However, this is not the end of the reasons why the fish are happy.
