Unfortunately dental disease is common in cats. Studies show that up to 80% of all dogs and cats suffer from periodontal disease by the time they are only two years old (source: holisticvetcare.com) and up to 90% of cats that are aged 4 and older suffer from some form of dental disease (source: Cornell University, College of Veterinary Medicine). However, if an owner takes the necessary steps and ensures appropriate preventive dental health care, cleaning and regular dental check ups, then most dental diseases in cats are easily treatable.
