There are numerous theories as to the cause of feline stomatitis, but none proven and none that even give us a useful working hypothesis. Removing the teeth often helps, but, as you have discovered, not in all cases. You didn't mention what you had been feeding her, nor what vaccinations and other veterinary treatments she had gotten before the onset of symptoms, and when she got those vaccinations and treatments. She was already 2 plus years old before this started, so something must have brought it on; she wasn't born with this problem. I would like this information, if possible. In any case, 1 tsp of cod liver oil in her food daily, along with 30mg CoQ10 twice a day should help. As to a diet, raw ground meat with 1/4 tsp bonemeal per day and 1 tsp plain yogurt per meal will satisfy her nutritional needs.
