Puppy Teething Tracker

Between about three and seven months, a puppy works through a mouthful of changes - baby teeth dropping out, adult teeth pushing in, sore gums and a sudden urge to chew everything. PetHealthLog lets you log each lost tooth with a date, note the chewing, drooling and grumpy days, and follow the timeline - so you have a clear record of how your puppy's mouth is developing and what to mention at the next checkup. Free, no account, works offline.

Some signs are not just teething - call the vet

Teething is normal, but a few signs go beyond sore gums. If your puppy has a badly swollen or bleeding mouth, will not eat or drink, seems in real pain, has very bad breath or a tooth that looks broken or out of place, paws at the mouth constantly or seems unwell, this is not something to simply log and wait on - contact your vet. And if you think your puppy has swallowed a piece of a chew toy or anything that could cause a blockage, treat it as urgent. This tracker is for keeping a record, not for delaying care when something looks wrong.

A messy few months that's easy to lose track of

Veterinary and breeder sources generally describe teething as starting around three to four months, when baby teeth loosen and fall out and the adult teeth push through, with most puppies having their full adult set - often 42 teeth - by roughly six to seven months. The most uncomfortable stretch is often between about twelve and sixteen weeks, when sore gums leave a puppy chewy and a little grumpy.

The trouble is how much of it slips by unnoticed. Tiny baby teeth often vanish into a toy or get swallowed, so you only realise one is gone when you spot a gap. Was that the third tooth or the fourth? Did that wobbly one ever come out? Is that baby canine still sitting there next to the new adult one? A vague "she's teething somewhere in there" is hard to act on, and a baby tooth that hangs on too long is exactly the kind of thing a vet likes to know about.

PetHealthLog is free, asks for no account and works offline, so each time you spot a lost tooth, a new one coming through or a rough day, you can note it. The timeline is right there, the picture is clear, and you have a real record for the next checkup instead of trying to remember.

What the teething tracker actually does

A log only helps if it is quick to fill in the moment you notice and turns scattered moments into something you can read. Here is how PetHealthLog handles both.

Signs that mean call the vet, not just keep chewing

General guidance from veterinary sources - when in doubt, call. The tracker helps you spot these, it does not decide them.

  • A swollen, bleeding or very smelly mouth, or gums that look sore beyond normal teething
  • A puppy that will not eat or drink, or seems in real pain
  • A tooth that looks broken, discoloured, or sits out of place
  • An adult tooth coming in while the baby tooth beside it stays firmly in place
  • Constant pawing at the mouth, or a puppy that seems generally unwell
  • Any worry that your puppy has swallowed a piece of a chew toy

Everyday extras for a teething puppy

To get through the chewy months, owners often keep a few basics on hand: a mix of puppy-safe rubber and soft chew toys, freezable or chillable teething toys to soothe sore gums, and a puppy toothbrush and pet-safe toothpaste to start a gentle dental routine. Choose toys sized and rated for a puppy and supervise chewing so nothing gets swallowed. None of these treat a dental problem or replace a vet's advice - they just help with everyday comfort and routine while the teething runs its course. Never use human toothpaste on a puppy, and never give a teething gel or remedy unless your vet recommends it.

Frequently asked questions

Is this puppy teething tracker really free?
Yes. Logging lost baby teeth and emerging adult teeth, noting sore gums, chewing, drooling and grumpy days, following the timeline by age, and the PDF report are all free to use. There is no sign-up and no account, and your puppy's records stay on your own device.
When do puppies start and stop teething?
Veterinary and breeder sources generally describe puppy teething as starting around three to four months of age, when the baby teeth begin to fall out and the adult teeth push through. Most puppies have their full set of adult teeth, often around 42, by roughly six to seven months, though some take a little longer. The most uncomfortable weeks are often between about twelve and sixteen weeks, when sore gums can make a puppy chewy and a little grumpy. A tracker that records lost teeth and emerging ones by date helps you follow where your own puppy is in that timeline rather than guessing.
How can I soothe my teething puppy's sore gums?
Sources commonly suggest plenty of appropriate chew toys, a mix of rubber and soft toys, and cold or frozen puppy-safe chews and treats to help soothe sore gums, along with a teething gel only if your vet recommends one. Chewing itself is a natural comfort, so redirecting your puppy onto safe toys rather than hands, shoes or furniture is part of getting through it. None of this is a substitute for a vet's advice, and a puppy that seems in real pain, goes off food, or has a swollen or bleeding mouth should be checked. A tracker is useful here for noting which days were rough and what helped, so you can see the pattern.
What is a retained baby tooth and why note it?
A retained baby tooth is a baby (deciduous) tooth that has not fallen out by the time the adult tooth next to it comes through, so two teeth sit in the same spot. Veterinary sources note this can crowd the mouth and sometimes needs attention, often around the time a puppy is spayed or neutered. It is not something to diagnose at home, but it is exactly the kind of thing worth noticing and mentioning at a checkup. Recording which baby teeth came out and which seem to be hanging on gives your vet a clear picture instead of a guess, so the tracker simply helps you keep that record.
Does it work without an internet connection?
Yes. PetHealthLog is a progressive web app that works offline. Once it has loaded you can log a lost tooth, add a note or check the timeline without a connection, so logging it the moment you spot a gap or a wobbly tooth never depends on having a signal.
Is this a substitute for veterinary advice?
No. PetHealthLog is a record-keeping tool, not veterinary advice. It does not diagnose dental problems, decide whether a baby tooth is retained, or tell you a chew or remedy is safe for your puppy. A puppy that seems in real pain, has a swollen, bleeding or smelly mouth, will not eat, or has a tooth that worries you should be seen, and whether your puppy needs a checkup, and how soon, is a decision for a licensed veterinarian - the tracker simply helps you keep an honest record of how the mouth is developing.
