Hello my name is Maggytyu898 Well, they dont have to get too long. If you put a cardboard chewing tube in the cage, it will bite that and they will be just fine (i think). or, you can put wooden blocks in their cage (my guinea pighates wood so beware.). I would say if you had no chewing materials, it would take about 2 weeks. because guinea pigs are rodents. and the definition of rodent is: an animal that has 1 pair of ever-growing teeth.well, thank you for asking:) Hello my name is LuvBug787, my advice is feed it lots of vitamin c (timothy hay) and that will help the teeth and keep it from growing too far.
Guinea pig teeth grow continuously throughout their lives and can become too long if not properly worn down through chewing on hay and tough vegetation. Signs of overgrown teeth include difficulty eating, weight loss, drooling, and eventually dental issues and potential pain. Regular monitoring and providing plenty of hay for chewing can help prevent overgrown teeth.
yes, they most certainly will. guinea pigs teeth are always growing so it is important to give them stuff to chew on like tree branches (check with a vet for appropriate types of tree to use) or untreated pine. if they over grow it can stop the pig from being able to eat/drink and it will get sick and die.
unless the roots of the teeth have been sergically removed and there are NO roots left they will grow back :)
not very fast if they have something to ground their teeth down on such as carrots
