Background: Dental disease is painful and highly prevalent in companion rabbits, but current veterinary management techniques and clinical welfare implications are little described.
Methods: Anonymised VetCompass clinical records were manually revi... Read More about Dental disease in rabbits under UK primary veterinary care: Clinical management and associated welfare impacts.

Rabbit dental abnormalities: Investigation of conformational risk factors in a pedigree rabbit population (2025)
Journal Article

Lop-eared and brachycephalic conformations have inconsistently been associated with dental abnormalities in pet and rescue rabbit populations. We investigated conformational risk factors for dental abnormalities in a pedigree population where conform...

Dental disease in companion rabbits under UK primary veterinary care: frequency and risk factors (2024)
Journal Article
Jackson, M., Burn, C., Hedley, J., Brodbelt, D., & O'Neill, D. (2024). Dental disease in companion rabbits under UK primary veterinary care: frequency and risk factors. Veterinary Record, https://doi.org/10.1002/vetr.3993

Background-
Some prior evidence has suggested rabbits with lop ear and brachycephalic skull conformations have higher dental disease risk. This retrospective cohort study reports the frequency and conformational risk factors for primary-care veterin...
