Chronic Gingivostomatitis in Cats: Significant Improvement with Dental Extractions
Early Intervention is Crucial
Researchers have discovered that early intervention with partial or full-mouth extractions can significantly improve the condition of cats affected by chronic gingivostomatitis bucco-stomatitis faucitis (CGSBF), a severe oral condition.
Acute Caudal Stomatitis
Acute caudal stomatitis, also known as faucitis, is a common manifestation of CGSBF. This condition, which causes severe inflammation and pain in the back of the mouth, can be effectively treated with dental extractions.
Treatment Options
Treatment for CGSBF typically involves one or both of two options: either extractions of the affected teeth or anti-inflammatory medications such as corticosteroids or cyclosporine.
Importance of Early Extraction
The study's findings highlight the importance of early dental extractions in managing CGSBF. By intervening early, before the condition becomes chronic, veterinarians can significantly improve the cat's quality of life and prevent further complications.
