My 8 year old rottie chipped a tooth a while back and it went gray. My vet (had him for about a year)recommended an $800 root canal telling me that Chaos was probably in pain etc. etc. I started calling her previous vets (we move a lot), and talked to our shelter vet. All of them recommended against a root canal, and recommended just watching for signs of pain or changed eating habits. The consensus was that there are a lot of dogs walking around with chipped canines, and that it is usually not a big deal. So far so good - no signs of pain. I got a new vet!
