Reply To: Is This Mouth Rot? How to Clean Eyelash Crested Gecko's Teeth?

[ryan]

Thank you for your replies! We ended up taking Kronos to the veterinarian and he did have mouth rot. He was prescribed a medication and oral cleansing gel, we took all substrate out of his tank, and now he is doing much better. There’s no more mouth rot and he is still happy and active.

For some reason, Kronos loves to eat dirt which gets stuck in his teeth – we think it could be from a lack of calcium. But we took all dirt out and haven’t had a problem since. Thank you all for your help!
