Coming up for 50 litters Never had a problem so far.  Proof of the pudding.  I think its up to the individual.  Personally would not do it.

Quite right it is up to the individual and whatever works for you and your system, we farrow 10 to 12 litters a week, and they all have the needle teeth clipped. Does not effect or hurt the performance of our pigs, there daily live weight gain is correct, and they go off farm at 16 to 18 weeks at 75 kilos l/w.
