Default Teeth injury

Hello.

I adopted Willow about 11 days ago and I cleaned out her cage today. When I put her back in, she was chewing the bars and I must’ve startled her because she pulled away and her mouth was stuck. She was squealing and her mouth was bleeding but she freed herself. It was terrifying.

I rushed her to the emergency vet, who has given her a 24hr painkiller injection and she’s now back home in her cage. I can hear her making little noises but she won’t touch any food or drink.

The vet said he thinks she has broken her tooth which seems likely but he couldn’t get to see in her mouth very well.

Does anyone have any experience with anything similar happening, or is there anything I can do for her? I’ve left all the normal things in her cage and she’s now in her bed up the corner.

More importantly, is there a chance she can recover from this? I’m devastated that this has happened so soon after having her.

Thank you. X
