Do those gels work, the ones you smear on their gums?

Logic Gel can be wiped on a paw, i think they work but you need to start with a relatively clean mouth! Thick tartar wont be bothered by it.

the vet says it's just food stuck under his teeth nothing to worry about once tooth comes out it will be ok
he has lots of woobly teeth going to get him some breath freshners today and maybe a tooth brush lol
He is only 5.3 months old and is being DONE on monday
I don't think there is anything else wrong other than his loose teeth and smelly breath he is otherwise a normal healthy kitten

Are we talking 'yuk pooh' smelly breath or 'oh-god-that-could-kill-an-elephant-at-fifty-paces' smelly?
Spaying and neutering saves lives.
Nobody has a right to own a cat. It's a privilege.

Just a thought.
Did the vet do any bloods, for diabetes, for example. May be worth looking at things apart from teeth problems.
Cats were once gods; they have never forgotten this, nor have the people they own.

Plaque Off helps to keep the mouth cleaner & healthier.
If you buy it from VetUK and go through our links page we get a small donation http://www.colchestercatrescue.org.uk/id6.html  Its the cheapest place iv found it and has free p&p.

I dont believe that dry food helps dental health, the best thing for chewing is a raw chicken wing  :)

Just a thought, but have you tried him on dry food?
