Dental disease can be in the form of inflammation, decay, traumatic injury and, for rabbits, tooth overgrowth. Disease can be seen in the mouths of up to 80% of cats and dogs, resulting in tooth loss, infection and pain. Rabbits, whose teeth grow throughout their lives, can have problems if their teeth overgrow and damage the mouth. Unfortunately pets with dental pain rarely show the signs of oral discomfort we might expect, as refusing food and pawing at the face are typically only seen in very severe cases.
