    I don't know much about that sort of thing, but I'm glad you're taking him in to get looked at.

    It is really hard to tell from those pics... can you get anything better?
    Look, sometimes bad things happen, and there is nothing you can do about it, so why worry?

    Def take him to the vet - it IS hard to tell - coud be mouth rot, an infected tooth (or socket) or who knows what else. Wouln't let that one slide.

    Could it have been caused from "assist feeding"?

    From the looks of it it does look to be atleast the start of mouth rot which as Smulkin suggested can be caused from a broken/injured tooth best to let the vet handle the situation
    edit: and yes it very well could have been caused from assist feeding one of the reasons why assist feeding should only be used as a last resort

    I think it's very possible it was caused by assist feeding....maybe forced the food in and broke a tooth or something....let us know what the vet says.
