| Ellie had it too. She got some of her adult teeth pulled. The ones that are wiggly probably need to be pulled. I brush everyday and use OraVet once a week (first application has to be done under anesthesia). Is there a lot of tartar on them or not? Sorry this didn't get answered sooner. It got lost.

| Sadly, it sounds like her teeth are very diseased. If they are brown, then she most likely has infection in her mouth. Has she been to a vet lately? Warmly, Deborah

| How many of her teeth are wiggling? Did the vet mentioned pulling any? What have you been using to clean them and how often?

| Petzlife oral gel or spray is the way to go. When I started using it on my boys, they both had the beginnings of plaque on their teeth and bad breath. Now, their teeth are clean and white, and 95% of the plaque has disappeared. I highly recommend it.
