Can dog jaw fracture heal?
The recovery of dog jaw fracture depends on many factors, including the type, location and severity of the fracture, as well as the timeliness and effectiveness of treatment. Generally speaking, if dogs receive proper treatment and care, fractures can usually heal.

Treatment methods usually include the following: conservative treatment, surgery and fixation. Conservative treatment is mainly to limit the activities of dogs, give appropriate painkillers and antibiotics, and promote the natural healing of fractures. Surgery may require the use of steel plates, screws or steel wires to fix the fracture site to ensure the correct healing of the fracture. The fixation method usually adopts plaster or external bracket to fix the fracture site.

During the treatment, dogs need to have a full rest and avoid strenuous exercise and chewing hard objects. At the same time, regular review and X-ray examination can evaluate the fracture healing and adjust the treatment plan as needed.

It should be noted that the fracture healing time varies from person to person, and it usually takes several weeks to several months. During the treatment, observe the dog's symptoms and behaviors in time, and seek medical advice in time if there is any abnormality.
