5 month old MC has bad breath.

My 5 month old Maine Coon(Gritty) has bad breath. I feed him dry food everyday and 3 small cans of wet food a week. Can brushing his teeth cure this? Any comments would be helpful. Thanks

Check your kitten's teeth - if his gums seem inflamed he may have an infection

Brushing his teeth on a regular basis is very important, but you should also get your kitten's teeth checked by a Vet. He may have an infection that could cause health problems throughout his body.
