Yes…teeth removal helps with about 80 percent of the cases (not so with my cat…he fell in the 20 percent…but he is on cyclosporine and that medicine on top of the extractions has helped him…in another 6 months he may be able to stop it)….I am surprised that the first vet was just giving your cat antibiotics…not really that helpful. In any case, teeth extraction helps with most cats…so you are doing the right thing….often you will need to take out the canines as well…because they also can be problematic. One thing…if the teeth extraction doesn't work…ask your vet about cyclosporine. Also, make sure that they take x rays AFTER the extraction to make sure that no roots have been left in. Good luck. I hope your cat well.
