My 4-year-old Jillie just had 8 teeth removed yesterday. She had 3 removed at her only other dental, at 2-years. I've brushed her teeth almost daily since birth, so I'm quite disappointed.

I thought that since my 9-year-old has always done well with brushing that I wouldn't need to bring her in to annual dentals, but I'm obviously mistaken. My 9-year-old has lost no teeth and had his only dental at 6 years old.

Moving forward, I'm thinking of trying a sonicare on her. A YT friend does that and swears by it. She even got her vet to start recommending it. That and annual dentals. She's too young to be toothless.
