The reasons for your cat being too aggressive when brushing them or your schedule is tight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though these methods don&#8217;t completely substitute teeth brushing, they reduce countless dental diseases due to tartar build-up and plaque.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"99adbf\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #99adbf;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"779\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/4-2.jpg\" alt=\"Cute cat brushing her teeth\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/4-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/4-2-300x234.webp 300w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/4-2-768x598.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\uff08Cute cat brushing her teeth\uff09<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dental-gel\">Dental gel<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Cats sometimes cooperate when brushing their teeth. Therefore, a dental gel can be a great option. An ingredient in the gels destroys the germs that cause tartar build-up, gum disease, and cavities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"948373\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #948373;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5-1.jpg\" alt=\"Silicone toothbrush with a veterinary dental gel for cats\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/5-1-768x513.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"> (Silicone toothbrush with a veterinary dental gel for cats)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might not need a brush for the procedure, but you&#8217;ll still need to put the gel in the cat&#8217;s teeth using a finger applicator.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cat-dental-diet\">Cat dental diet<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Dental diets are hands-down the quickest way to keep your cat&#8217;s teeth in good shape and stop the build-up of tartar and plaque. Usually, cat owners prefer wet food for their cats, but dry food can help clean their teeth in ideal ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scientists have proven that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cat_food#Dry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">dry food diets<\/a> are&nbsp;good for overall body health, with interest in the kibbles&#8217; make-up and size. Hence, when searching for dry supplementary cat food, consider a product with denser\/larger pellets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"947b68\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #947b68;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"999\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/6-1.jpg\" alt=\"A cat eating dry food with big pellets\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/6-1.jpg 999w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/6-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/6-1-768x513.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 999px) 100vw, 999px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">(A cat eating dry food with big pellets)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pellets ensure a firm cat grip which eventually can help brush away any plaque on your cat&#8217;s teeth. Also, ensure the food stays intact around the tooth to maximize the benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dental-chews\">Dental chews<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Rather than changing the diet, you can use your cat treats to clean their teeth periodically.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, some manufacturer specifically designs some treats to cater to dental hygiene. They come in different flavors like salmon, beef, chicken, etc., and they are also tasty. Almost always, the treats have different textures to help massage gums and clean cats&#8217; teeth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dental-chew-toys-for-cats\">Dental chew toys for cats<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>The surfaces on chew toys for felines are rough, like that of dental treats to help get rid of teeth plaque.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, other&nbsp;dental chew toys possess&nbsp;a sturdy mesh that scrapes plaque and&nbsp;tartar off the teeth like floss. Often, manufacturers fill up chew toys with catnips&nbsp;to make cats want to chew&nbsp;them.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bones-and-tendons\">Bones and tendons<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, your cat&nbsp;chewing&nbsp;on frozen food like dried turkey tendons or beef bones can help naturally&nbsp;clean its teeth as it removes plaque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"b99878\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #b99878;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/7-1.jpg\" alt=\"A cat chewing bone\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/7-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/7-1-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/7-1-768x576.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"> (A cat chewing bone)<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dental-wipes\">Dental wipes<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>To use a dental wipe, wrap it around one finger and then rub it against the feline&#8217;s teeth (same as using a toothbrush). Unfortunately, if&nbsp;your cat hates&nbsp;having your finger in its&nbsp;mouth, the method&nbsp;won&#8217;t work.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dental-supplements\">Dental supplements<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, you can put dental supplements in your cat&#8217;s water or food daily to enhance dental hygiene. Since only some cats are receptive to drinking flavored water (e.g., with mint), you can include another bowl of water with no supplements or mix the supplement with food.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dental-sprays\">Dental sprays<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Then, you&nbsp;can spritz dental sprays right into the cat&#8217;s mouth to remove plaque. Consequently, as&nbsp;the&nbsp;cat licks and swallows the spray, it&nbsp;mixes&nbsp;with saliva in the mouth and stays in circulation.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cat-oral-rinse\">Cat oral rinse<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>An oral cat rinse protects against periodontal disease, plaque, and tartar and gives a fresh breath. For its usage, squirt the alcohol-free formulation into the cat&#8217;s mouth. Additionally, you can pair it up with the options we&#8217;ve&nbsp;listed, particularly the dental diet.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"get-professional-cleaning\">Get professional cleaning<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Lastly, it&#8217;s ideal to have a professional clean your cat&#8217;s teeth once or twice yearly, based on the tartar and plaque build-up. The cost of the procedure will mostly depend on your cat&#8217;s weight, age, and area of residence; hence, prior research might help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"cdc8c7\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #cdc8c7;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/8.jpg\" alt=\"Veterinarian brushing cat\u2019s teeth\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/8.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/8-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/8-768x513.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">(Veterinarian brushing cat&#8217;s teeth)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Veterinary_anesthesia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">mo<\/a>dern anesthesia may not be completely risk-free, it&#8217;s safer than putting off treatment, especially with an identified dental disease.

A few signs of distress because of toothache or dental disease in your cat could be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>showing less affection than usual<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>not drinking or eating<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>eating more slowly than usual<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>preferring either dry or&nbsp;wet food<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>chewing solely on a single side<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>acting crankier than usual<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>hiding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"cdbfb4\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #cdbfb4;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/9.jpg\" alt=\"ecognizing dental problems in a cat\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/9.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/9-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/9-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">(recognizing dental problems in a cat)<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>All in all, a clean prevents tartar build-up on cats and subsequently keeps dental diseases at bay.
