Regular brushing your cat’s teeth is an integral part of maintaining your pet’s oral health. Almost all cats suffer from dental issues. They, too, can develop gum disease, tartar and plaque buildup, bad breath, and abscesses, leading to infection and tooth loss.
If your attempts are useless due to your cat’s resistance, you may always arrange a yearly professional cleaning with your veterinarian. In reality, periodontal diseases develop slowly in the gums even when teeth seem white. Periodontal diseases can only be avoided and recognized via frequent dental cleanings, which veterinarians strongly advise.
Dental cleanings are conducted under general anesthesia, permitting your veterinarian to clean the teeth from plaque, polish the teeth, and perform a thorough oral exam that includes an inspection beneath the gums. Your veterinarian can also clean behind the gums to eradicate germs and do any further treatments, including x-rays, to identify a dental illness. It is best to remember that elderly cats may require more regular dental cleanings. Make an appointment at your local veterinary hospital San Antonio, TX for your pet’s health and dental checks.
