We are trying to give our teeth, not only aesthetically important, but of course in our diet. Equally important is the integrity of the teeth of our dogs.
We do not keep the dentures of our dogs clean as ours. Although there is a dog brush that the master can rub his teeth by dragging his finger, but few do it. The plaque can sit on the teeth of the dogs in the same way. While tartar alone does not cause caries and gum disease, it can actually remain a hiding place for bacteria. If the gum is inflamed, the teeth may weaken, fall off, or the enamel may be damaged.
Gingivitis is caused by a bacterium that can occur in dogs as well as in humans.
It may be a sign of gingival disease if the dog bleeds while eating. It may also be a sign of inflammation of the gum. If this is a daily problem, you should seek veterinary help in dealing with the problem, as it may lead to loss of teeth.
A sign of gingivitis may be bad breath. Being a carnivorous dog has a basic sense of smell, but it may be worse if it is ill.
So the change in color and swelling of the color is a sign that our pet is suffering from oral disease, so it is necessary to consult a veterinarian. The same kind of veterinary assistance is needed even if the gum is barely covering the teeth, and almost the roots of those can be seen. Gingival retraction is not fun either.
