HOW DO YOU CLEAN YOUR CATS TEETH? | DENTAL PROBLEMS | TIPS TO KEEP TEETH CLEAN |

Today we are going to be talking about dental care for cats. Many people ask whether kittens also lose their milk/baby teeth. Yes, they do, and the teeth are replaced in 6 to 7 months. 

Some people complain about problems like tartar, yellowness and lousy scent. These usually start when your cat is 3 to 5 years old but can also start earlier, and that’s normal. The main reason behind these problems is food. If you feed your cat jelly food or if your cat goes to dirty places & eats dirt & if it eats something toxic, it will suffer from these problems. Also, if you don’t take any precautions, it will be dangerous for your cat.

Now, if we talk about treatment, you should start caring for your cat from a very young age. The first precaution you must make is to give a significantly less amount of jelly/wet food. If your cat is eating dirt/insects or drinking dirty water, prevent it from doing so.

You can use a herbal dental spray (handy), bio dent hexedine, dental catnips, toothbrush & toothpaste to keep your kitty’s teeth nice and clean. You can buy all these products online via this link (click here) or on Amazon.

If your cat’s teeth are turning yellow, have a terrible scent and are starting to shed, your cat will probably stop eating. It might be reaching the end of its life. You must take it to the vet. 

Make sure your groom your cat daily. It can be excruciating when a cat’s teeth are shed due to not being taken care of. Buy a special cat toothbrush and use it daily! Grooming includes all kinds of things. Click here to read an article all about grooming.

Method To Clean Your Cats Teeth:

If your cat is under 3 years, then you must use this method weekly, 3 to 4 times. Whereas if your cat is aged (has a dental problem), then you must use it twice a day after it has finished eating.

Method: Lift the skin on top of the sides of the mouth and spray some of your herbal dental sprays. This will ensure your cat swallows the squirt. It’s a herbal spray, so it won’t be damaging. Any smell or problem will be prevented when you use this method.

Another product you can use is biodent hexedine. This also prevents bad breath and any dental problems from occurring. Mixing it into your cat’s water is the way to use this. If you have 1 litre of water, add about 5 to 7 ml of this product. Only add a few drops if you have a small amount of water.

Finally, you should brush your cat’s teeth at least 3 times a week. This can be very difficult! Also, don’t brush on the gums, and make sure you clean the teeth at the back.
