Fish Is Excited With Her Perfect New Smile After A Dentist Visit

This is Goldie, a pleasant pet pufferfish that always seems to be positive and happy. And that joyous enthusiasm spreads to Mark Byatt, Goldie’s devoted owner.

“What a wonderful personality she has!” Byatt told The Dodo. “She’s a pretty content fish overall,”

Goldie’s smile is contagious. However, it has been showing a little bit too much until recently.

Pufferfish like Goldie actually have teeth which fuse together to resemble one large tooth. This tooth is always growing, too, to make up for the wear caused by their diet of shellfish.

Goldie always munches on these hard-shelled snacks. But for some reason, in recent months, her chompers grew faster than they were being ground down, leaving her teeth longer than they should be.

Byatt was worried it would eventually hinder her ability to eat, so he brought her to the experts at the Sandhole Veterinary Centre for help.

Goldie was sedated so dental work could be performed with little stress to her.

Her overgrown tooth was then carefully trimmed down.

The hospital stated, “We use fish-safe anesthesia and [nurse] Debbie held her with a towel, often placing her back into the water.

The procedure was successful, and Goldie’s smile has never looked better.

She’s thrilled with her new smile, I can tell. said Byatt.

There is no question after seeing Goldie right now.

Goldie is much better able to enjoy her meals now that she has dental treatment done.

She is content for other reasons as well, though.

Her owner just adores Goldie and makes sure she is aware of it.

Byatt declared, “She is well worth all the effort and money I invest in making sure she is living in the best surroundings and leading a happy, healthy life. “Goldie is certainly a much-loved family member.”
