hi this is dr. greg mcdonald and i am herewith expert village.com and i want to show you a live example of some gum disease incats. this is a cat that has had dental disease and unfortunately this poor cat is unableto have an anesthetic because he has a heart problem so we have been managing this medicallyand it is really difficult to get good control on that in this cat but it also serves asan excellent model so you can see the problems they might have if we don’t take care oftheir teeth. stripe show me your mouth here? you can see that he has a lot of gum diseaseup here and that also there is a lot of tartar built up on this tooth and he actually hasa hole in his tooth over here because the tartar has chewed a hole in tooth on thatside. if we look over on the other side, you
can actually see he is missing a lot of teethon the upper side because they have actually fallen out. if he will let me, i will openhis mouth up and you can look inside. you can see he has a lot of gum disease and alot of disease going on in his teeth. so this cat would be an excellent category for a catthat should have his teeth cleaned. unfortunately, we have to put him under anesthesia and thiscat has a problem with his heart that precludes that. we have actually tried twice on thiscat to get his teeth cleaned and his heart stopped so it is unfortunate that he has tolive with a tough mouth but we are going to go into a lot of the details about how welook at the animal’s health prior to putting them under anesthesia so that they can makeit through without having a problem. thank
you stripe for showing us your teeth and wewill be back in a minute to talk a little more.
