My sister's cat had stomatitis...partial extraction done....he did fine with
the missing teeth, but had occasional flareups that were treated....steroids
and I'm sorry I can't remember the antibiotic...clindamyacin?Debbie (COL)"I am
only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something.And
because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I
can do. What I can do, I should do. And what I should do, by the grace of God,
I will do" (Edward Everett Hale) > Date: Fri, 7 Nov 2008 09:04:32 -0800>

needed> > I am posting this on a few groups - so I apologize for those who see
this more than once. I just want to make sure I get as much advice as
possible.> > My FeLv+, Bea, has had recurring gingivitis since she adopted me a
year ago. Her gums get red and swollen. We've tried numerous treatments
(brushing,antibiotics,anti-virals,cleaning) but to no avail nothing is helping
her. The anti-biotics worked but have since stopped (which has me worried on a
whole other level).> Other than her gum issue she is a healthy 3 year old.> > I
took her to a dental specialist yesterday who said the best course of action at
this point would be partial, possibly full extraction. He said it was
stomatitis, but nothing like the pictures I've seen on it - beginning stages. I
was wondering if anyone else has had either full or partial extraction done and
could offer any suggestions/advice.> I know it's probably the right thing to do
but I'm just wondering how others have adjusted to life with no or few teeth.
And if anyone has experienced any complications I should be made aware of.> >
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. > Thanks> Dawn> > > >
