Can dogs get tooth decay?

Dogs can get cavities. If your dog often eats soft food, often eats sweets, and neglects oral hygiene, your dog will be prone to tooth decay. The bones and tissues around the cavities are damaged, resulting in impaired chewing function, which will affect the dog's digestion and absorption over time. We need to brush our dogs’ teeth regularly to make their teeth healthy, and preventing tooth decay is only a small part of it.
Treatment methods for dog tooth decay:
1. It is best to extract it to avoid affecting the surrounding normal teeth.
2. Try to avoid feeding your dog food that is too sticky or soft to prevent excessive food crumbs remaining between the teeth in the dog’s mouth from growing bacteria.
3. For elderly dogs, we should carefully consider whether they can be removed. The main problem is that old dogs cannot tolerate anesthesia.
