Can a diet too high in meat hurt the teeth?

0

Yes. Meat contains a high concentration of phosphorus. In order to balance a high intake of phosphorus, the body pulls calcium from the teeth and tooth roots, weakening the teeth. To prevent this, don’t feed strictly organ or muscle meat to your pet. Instead, feed oxtails or large knucklebones, which provide calcium with the meat.
