How do you stop guinea pigs from having itchy teeth?
Guinea pigs don't actually get itchy teeth. They are rodents, and this means their teeth never stop growing. To keep their teeth worn down, they will gnaw the wooden edges of their cage. Maybe this is what you interpret as having itchy teeth. If you don't give your guinea-pig pieces of untreated wood to gnaw on, it's possible for their teeth to grow so long that they can't eat.
If you trim your rabbit's teeth once do you have to continuously do it?
Yes, if you trim them because they are growing crooked then they will need to be trimmed every couple of weeks. Rabbits are mono-phidonts. This means that their teeth continually grow. If they are straight they meet and keep themselves worn down so there is no need to trim but if they are crooked they will not meet properly and will grow and grow until they are trimmed. If not trimmed they CAN grow thru the roof of the rabbits mouth and into the brain killing it. Rabbits with genetically crooked teeth (buck teeth) should not be bred as they will pass the trait on to the babies.

Why can't guinea pigs eat bananas?
Guinea pigs can eat bananas but it is not advised to feed guinea pigs very many bananas as they are high in natural sugar and can damage guinea pigs teeth. Of course they are highly nutritious and are good as a rare treat to keep a guinea pigs diet balanced. To help you with what kind of food a guinea pig can have to keep their diets balanced I have provided a list of good foods. Excellent foods include: Kale, Parsley, Sweet Red and Yellow Peppers, Broccoli and Guava. Very Good foods include: Green Peppers, Kiwi, Strawberry, Mustard Greens and Cauliflower. Fair foods include: Red Cabbage, Peas, Cantaloupe, Oranges, Snap Peas, Turnip Greens, Kohlrabi, Papaya. Poor foods include: Beet Greens, Collard Greens, Bak Choi, Aspargus, Lettuce and Carrots. All the foods above are good for your guinea pig but the poor and fair foods just need to be given less or need to be given a lot at one time of that food. So if you feed your guinea pig lots of carrot or lettuce don't fret they are good foods but the top foods are even better.
Do guinea pig's loose their teeth?
no they shouldn't lose there teeth they have one set of teeth and that's it. they grow for ever that's why you should have a chew toy in the hutch or a peice of wood so that they can keep their teeth to a healthy length. my guinea pig lost her top teeth so i had to mash her food and hand feed her it took a couple of days for her teeth to grow back but make sure to check that there is a bit of their teeth there where the gum is because if it is just gum you may need to take him for an xray to see if the teeth are going to grow again. hope this helps
