Good article, Shuaib! (But you didn't give credit for the excellent photos - could you add that info in please?)
One cannot be too careful about animal dental health.
All of our cats had had to have tooth extractions (they were all rescues) due to bad teeth issues.
Some of the older cats resisted mightily to us cleaning, even with two people plus the towel wrap so we have sometimes had the vet do it. so far they have manged to do this without putting them under
I actually created a video of a dental procedure being done on one of our cats, at the request of our vet.
