Has your vet checked Sokara's teeth? She could have an infected tooth that is causing this issue. I suggest you get her to your vet for an examination. If a tooth is not the issue the other options are diet related. Not the products you are using in the photos but her main staple diet. You may want to consider switching brands of food. What are you feeding now? Can you post again with more information so we can help you better? Thank you.
