I see. Interesting! Loss of calcium definitely makes sense considering she's old and appears to have kidney issues. But I don't think she's in any pain since she seems to have so much fun chewing on her hide, her bottom teeth seemed perfectly even, and her teeth were a nice orange color, so I will just keep a close eye on how the tooth is growing for now.

I did talk to the vet and since it's a new vet Bertha hasn't seen (we recently moved), they did want to see her rather than give advice over the phone. So she has an appointment in January to be seen. Until then, I'll be sure to watch her carefully to make sure she keeps eating and isn't in any pain. If anything changes, they said I could call back and try to get her in sooner.
