How do I know if my pet is in pain?

Signs of oral pain in pets are very subtle; a dog or cat will almost never stop eating as a result of dental pain. The most common signs of pain are sleeping more and playing less. Other things that might indicate oral pain: 

Dropping food

Pawing at the face

Drooling

Preference for soft food when they used to enjoy crunchy foods

If your pet is showing any of these signs, seek veterinary attention.

 

To determine when your pet needs help, use these Quality of Life scales:
