Hope you are sitting down, its a long one! I haven&#39;t seen such a young cat with this in practice beforeen-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/134738?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 18 Sep 2012 22:21:42 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:17bb9195-9483-45b8-bd4e-735f0c50061fBeholden<p>Oh I dunno, rotting for no reason seems pretty accurate! Right now after all his treatment, his mouth looks perfect... and yet, it seems he&#39;s going to loose this tooth :(</p> <p>Yes I was afraid of the breed associated issues, space for the molars was definitely tight. I had hoped he might escape them as he is not one distinct type, but some sort of mix. Affectionately known as the &#39;Burmese barsteward&#39;.</p> <p>Any oriental sucess stories out there? We see a handful in practice, mostly siamese, the occasional burmese, no serious dental cases in the time I&#39;ve been there.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/134700?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 18 Sep 2012 08:07:02 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:2b845de7-b1a9-4221-bd36-c73b1e8bd055Charmaloo88<p>I haven&#39;t seen exactly what you&#39;re describing...but I think the breed has a lot to do with it. All orientals I see are just predisposed to awful teeth! We&#39;ve recently had an oriental in about 3 times over 2 months as we had to remove all his teeth as they just started rotting for no reason whatsoever (no signs of FCV I must add). Was one of those classic cases of &#39;errm......it&#39;s idiopathic&#39; as we could find NO cause at all. All teeth removed, cat is happy as larry. He&#39;s 5 years old!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
