My cat (3 years old) back in May of this year had to have two bottom teeth removed because of resorptive lesions. He did well with recovery and only got bad off when my old vet gave him a depo medrol injection without my say so and he was very ill for weeks and it absolutely terrified me to have him go back to any vet. But he snapped out of it and I got him to a new vet. I started brushing his teeth daily and his bad breath is almost completely gone. I can’t fully brush his teeth because he absolutely hates it but I do what I can.
I took him to the vet yesterday and he said that he doesn’t see any bad plaque but I said to schedule another dental because it comes with xrays and I want to make sure he didn’t get more lesions. My two questions are:
is it too soon to do another dental? His last one was in May.
how fast do resorptive lesions grow back? Is it possible that he will never have them again?
He is eating and drinking normally but does seem to be annoyed when I try and touch and pet under his chin. But I think he could just not like being pet there as he’s very finicky to begin with.
thanks!
