毛孩挑食還是牙痛?獸醫教你分辨3個徵兆

當毛孩食量下降,該如何分辨牠是挑食、任性還是牙痛?哪些牙齒問題會導致牙痛?由獸醫為你逐一解答。

飲食是寵物健康的重要一環,當發現毛孩食慾不振,主人難免會開始擔心。貓狗和人一樣,都有脾氣和喜好,尤其在飲食方面;但是影響毛孩食量的因素很多,小如挑食和鬧脾氣,但有時候背後原因是更嚴重的牙齒問題

貓狗牙痛的3個徵兆

牙痛會導致毛孩的食慾下降。如果毛孩進食時有以下表現,牠很可能正受牙痛困擾!

  • 單側咀嚼,進食緩慢,食物邊吃邊掉
  • 「食軟唔食硬」,拒吃硬糧,只吃軟食
  • 口臭、流口水、怕碰嘴,如果口水帶血或有異味,可能是口腔感染的徵兆

你可以嘗試檢查毛孩的口腔,看看牙齦是不是健康的粉紅色,有沒有紅腫流血。如果毛孩牙痛,牠可能不會讓你觸踫嘴巴,平時亦可能會用爪子抓臉或磨嘴,試圖舒緩不適。

提提你:當受牙痛困擾,毛孩可能會開始揀飲擇食、吃一半就放棄,或出現奇怪的咀嚼方式。此外,貓貓非常擅長掩飾痛楚。記得細心觀察,留意毛孩有否出現反常行為,並在有需要時到獸醫診所檢查!

牙痛難耐,食慾下降

當牙齒出現牙周病牙齒吸收牙齦炎等問題,咬硬糧的時候會痛,毛孩就會開始出現挑食的表現。

如何分辨正常挑食 vs 疼痛型挑食?

  • 正常挑食:純粹口味偏好;咀嚼正常
  • 疼痛型挑食:咀嚼困難,咬硬糧卡住,邊吃邊掉;流口水、口臭、怕碰嘴;體重減輕 🆘請即見獸醫!

常見誤區,切勿輕視

  • 「看起來還吃得下,就代表牙齒沒事!」❌
  • 「換罐頭就好!」❌

挑食的表現不一定是口味或性格驅使。不要忽視隱藏的健康風險,及時到獸醫診所進行診斷。假如輕視毛孩的進食問題,很可能會延誤治療,令牙齒問題惡化! 

毛孩牙痛,如何是好? 

寵物的牙齒狀態會影響進食,從而影響牠的整體健康。如果懷疑毛孩有牙痛問題,一定要尋求獸醫診斷,盡快找出問題根源並進行治療。

一定要照X光嗎?

事實上,有50%以上的牙科問題都藏在牙根,更有研究指出42%的貓貓牙齒問題只能透過X光發現!     

由於肉眼無法看到牙根,有些主人到了牙根已經化膿的時候,才發現毛孩一直都在默默受苦。

牙科X光能有效發現以下問題:

  • 牙齒吸收(tooth resorption):牙齒被身體的破牙質細胞(odontoclast)分解並吸收,最終整顆牙齒會消失不見,只剩下微微突起的牙齦
  • 牙齒斷裂(tooth fractures):因外力撞擊、咬硬物或蛀牙而導致牙齒表面或內部出現裂痕或斷裂,視乎裂痕深度,會伴隨不同程度的不適或痛楚
  • 殘留牙根(retained tooth roots):牙齒斷裂後殘留於牙齦內的牙根
  • 牙根膿腫(tooth root abscess):牙根組織因發炎而積聚膿液並長出膿瘡
