Oral diseases are the dental conditions that affect the teeth as well as gums in dogs. A broken tooth, tooth abscesses, and teeth cavities or caries must not be ignored as they can lead to many other complicated health conditions. I am sure all of us would agree on how painful any dental problem can be for us. The same thing holds good for our pet dogs too. As per many veterinary science studies, oral disease is the number one health problem in dogs amounting to about 70% of the medical cases.

Causes Of Oral Diseases In Dogs

• Infection in the gums or any part of the mouth can lead to oral cancer, jaw fractures, and an abscess in the tooth root.
• Tooth decay due to sugary sticky foods.

Periodontal or gums diseases are another issue that needs to be taken care of. Plaque formation takes place over a period and bacteria reside in it.

In case of an attack by a foreign particle,  the immune system of the dog releases white blood cells. The bacteria in the plaque, in turn, cause the white blood cells to release enzymes that destroy the gum tissue. Vets warn against periodontal diseases as it is five times more prevalent in dogs.

The reason is that dogs have a more alkaline pH as compared to humans. Also, plaque formation takes place very easily in dogs as their teeth are not brushed every day. All these oral diseases can ultimately lead to tooth loss.

Symptoms To Be Noted For Oral Problems

The symptoms of oral diseases in dogs can get severe if not treated on time.

• Bleeding gums with lots of inflammation
• Constant drooling
• Wobbly teeth
• Bad breath
• Rubbing the mouth with the paw or on the floor
• Eating only on one side of the mouth
• Blood in saliva
• Difficulty in chewing or eating the food
• Yellowish-brown tartar on the surface of teeth

Foul smell and discolored teeth are always a clear indication that the oral health of your dogs is not at its best. The vet can check the plaque formation on the teeth for further diagnosis.
