| HELP: Dental advice question A year ago I adopted a yorkie terrier from an older couple. She is now 4 years old and has horrible teeth. I have taken her in two times for cleanings and the first time they had to pull out around 6 teeth. The second time she went for her cleaning, back in May they suggested to pull a few more, but we could not afford it at that time (it had cost us around $800 the first time). She hates having her teeth brushed, I try to brush once a week and since we have had her she only eats dry hard food. I also use a tartar foam about 2 times a week. I recently noticed that one of her top front teeth are wiggly. What can/ should I do? How do I know when she is in pain? Thank you in advance! |

| Brushing 1-2 times daiy is by far the best thing to do at home. Honestly, regular dentals as needed with extractionss what needs to be done. There is no way around it. If the best feels several need to be pulled then the gums are probably very diseased. Your pup is likely in a lot of pain. How about CareCredi?
