Senior Cats and Tooth Loss

 

 Have you noticed that your senior cat has trouble chewing her food? If so, you may need to have your vet look at your cat’s teeth. Senior cats have been known to lose their teeth, but it is not a natural occurrence. It actually could indicate something else going on in your cat’s mouth. Some experts tend to believe the tooth loss is because of poor dental health and not because the cat is aging. Senior cats may also lose their teeth due to injury or trauma. Talk to your vet about placing your senior cat on a regular dental program to help maintain his teeth. Routine dental care can prevent a variety of periodontal diseases even in older cats. The best way to help care for your cat’s teeth all through it’s life is to brush them on a routine basis at home. Click to learn more or work with your vet Rochester, NY.
