Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Paladin's teeth look fine. They are a bit longer than in most cats though if this is not causing him an issue like pain or irritation of the gums then it is not an issue that needs treatment. I do not think that you need to take him into your veterinarian. Good luck and have a good night!
