When will my dog's teeth stop growing?

I have a 4 year old Alaskan malamute. Obviously, she has all her adult teeth, but some of them don't look like they have grown in completely. The teeth next to her bottom "fangs" are small and are not at the same level as her other teeth. Also, her teeth in the back just erupted a few weeks ago and she is starting to chew a lot on sticks, and rubbery toys. I heard that dogs don't get wisdom teeth, but what is going on?

at 4 years old your dogs teeth are all grown in take your dog to a vet to make sure she doesn't have an abcess or an infection in her mouth(teeth erupting?) she could be chewing on sticks because of the pain. also her bottom teeth could be slightly chipped.
Reply:ok those are retained baby teeth and need to be removed by your vet. im surprised that he didnt notice them when he does the yearly exam on your dog. They have a potential for causing dental issues. check with your vet for a price on this procedure.
