What Is Tooth Root Resorption? (Zoey’s Condition Explained)

Tooth root resorption is a painful dental condition that affects many cats, often without showing clear symptoms until the damage becomes severe. In this condition, a cat’s body begins breaking down and absorbing the structure of their own tooth—starting at the root and sometimes progressing all the way to the crown.

Common signs include:
• Drooling
• Decreased appetite
• Bad breath
• Dropping food or chewing on one side
• Sudden irritability or hiding

Because the process happens beneath the gumline, it usually requires dental X-rays to detect. Treatment often involves extraction of the affected teeth to relieve pain and prevent further complications.

Zoey is currently undergoing treatment for this condition and is scheduled for surgery, along with evaluation for possible diabetes. Your support—through purchases, donations, or even sharing her story—helps us cover the ongoing medical care she needs.

Thank you for helping us keep Zoey comfortable, safe, and cared for.
