| Summary: | Many feline dental problems are unique to the species. Over fifty percent of cats older than five years old suffer from dental and oral diseases, which no not all have a canine counterpart. Feline Dentistry: Oral Assessment, Treatment, and preventative Care brings together feline specific treatment and prevention plans that take into account the particular needs of cars in maintaining good oral health. This book is the only current reference devoted to feline dentistry. It compiles information on anatomy, pathology, radiology, equipment, materials, anesthesia, treatment, medical and surgical dental care of the cat. This text serves as a guide to the diagnosis and management of both general dental problems, including periodontal, endodontic, orthodontic diseases, and oral masses; as well as problems unique to cats, such as tooth resorption, oropharangyeal inflammation, and maxillofacial cancer. Separated into three sections--assessment, treatment, and prevention--coverage includes diagnostic and anesthetic considerations, creating a treatment plan, and plaque control methods. Fully illustrated with over 700 color images, this is an essential reference for any veterinarian treating feline patients. |
