What does a healthy mouth look like in a cat? - Animal Hospital of Statesville
We see some healthy mouths in young cats. We’ll see a nice, white, happy crown, the white part of the tooth with no tartar and no calculus. And more importantly, we see gums that are a happy, healthy pink—not that red, angry, inflamed tissue called Gingivitis. We usually see these very healthy mouths in cats that are two years or less.
