Well i took my piggy rolo to the vets after noticing him tilting hishead. The vet said he has ear mites and crooked teeth at the back of his mouth. She gave me some drops for his ears but said thatwith regards to his teeth he is fine for now because they arent long at all and not causing him any bother but when they do eventually grow then they will have to be trimmed regularly so all went well and rolo is fine i have been treating twix too with the ear drops just in čaÅ¡e he has the mites too. Glad that my boy was ok in the end thank you everyone for all your advice and help ! (:
 
Glad that it is not an ear infection!

You may like to contact Debbie at her dental sanctuary/hospital sometime about care for dental piggies - the care side is as important as the dental treatment. Make sure that you weigh your boys weekly; dental problems often manifest first as weight loss due to not being able to chew well.
