At Northwood Animal Hospital, we give important instruction on home dental care to help keep your cat’s teeth and gums healthy and to aid you in discovering dental problems early. Dental disease is a reality for most cats. By age four, many cats have significant gingivitis and many also have periodontal disease. It is a slow progressing but serious disease that causes pain and affects the overall health and wellbeing. That is why it is important that all cats see a veterinarian annually to assess their oral health.

Catching dental problems in the early stages can greatly help your pet in the long run. Contact us right away if your pet experiences any of the following:A

  • Chronic bad breath
  • Your pet shies away when you try to touch their mouth area
  • Excessive drool
  • Dropping food when eating
  • Bleeding in your pet’s mouth
  • Loss of appetite or weight loss
  • Yellowish brown crust of tartar around the gum line
  • Missing, loose or broken teeth
