The Importance of Dental Care for Cats
Dental disease is among the most common health problems in cats, with most showing signs by age three. Issues like plaque buildup and gum disease can cause pain and, if untreated, allow bacteria to spread to the heart, liver, and kidneys. Regular dental care prevents discomfort, tooth loss, and serious complications—helping your cat stay healthy and happy at every stage of life.
When Your Cat Might Need Dental Attention
Cats are experts at hiding pain, which means dental issues can progress before you notice any signs. Schedule a dental exam if you observe any of the following:
- Bad breath or an unusual odor from the mouth
- Red, swollen gums or visible tartar buildup
- Difficulty eating or dropping food while eating
- Loose, discolored, or broken teeth
- Drooling or pawing at the mouth
Detecting these signs early allows us to treat dental problems before they cause lasting pain or damage.
