Poor Matilda! It's not unusual for dogs to be a bit depressed and sore for a few days after major dental work like this - just like people! She should feel a bit better each day, and should be back to normal by 7-10 days after the procedure. Make sure to feed her soft food in the meantime so that she can eat without hurting her mouth. If you have any concerns about how she's healing, you can always check with the vet who did her dental to make sure that everything is going as expected :)
