    Cats have a very high pain tolerance, unfortunately. Ours had a canine just fall out during weekly teeth brushing, and we never ever knew anything was wrong.

        You don’t “have to”. It can help reduce inflamation in the gums if your cat already has dental problems, but it won’t fix dental resorption though.
