SPREAD AND ETIOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF DENTAL DISEASES IN DOGS AND CATS
Abstract
Dental pathology in small domestic animals is characterized by multifactorial etiology and high clinical significance. In large dogs (German shepherds, Labradors, Cane Corso), traumatic injuries come to the fore: fractures of tooth crowns (mainly canines and premolars) with pulp exposure leading to the development of pulpitis and periapical abscesses. Pathological dental abrasion due to chewing hard objects is also often observed.
