Did you know that dental disease is the #1 condition affecting cats?Ā 70% of cats have developed some form of dental disease by the time they are 3 years old. I donāt want to scare you, but periodontal disease affects up to 80% of ALL adult cats. Gum disease affects 70% of all cats. Tooth resorption affects up to 60% of all cats, and over 70% of cats over the age of five. These statistics are appalling, made even worse by the fact that our cats canāt talk, and thus suffer until itās too late.
Tooth resorption ā also known as feline odontoclastic resorptive lesion (FORL) ā is a dental disease characterized by progressive erosion of dentin and tooth destruction. This is a common feline dental disease affecting between 20 and 60% of all cats.Ā Here is what you, as a cat parent, need to know about this commonly underdiagnosed dental health concern.
