Treatment Brought to you by Dr. Doug Knueven Beaver Animal Clinic Design Pet Sitters International Content Copyright Presenter Do Not Distribute Tooth/Mouth Anatomy The Tooth Crown - the visible part of a tooth Root - the anchor of a tooth that extends into the jawbone. Enamel - the tough, shiny, white outer surface of the tooth. Dentin - the hard but porous tissue located under both the enamel and cementum of the tooth. Dentin is harder than bone. The Tooth cont d The Tooth cont d Pulp - the soft center of the tooth. The pulp contains blood vessels and nerves; it nourishes the dentin. Nerves - nerves transmit signals (conveying messages like hot, cold, or pain) to and from the brain. Gums - the soft tissue that surrounds the base of the teeth. Cementum - a layer of tough, yellowish, bone-like tissue that covers the root of a tooth. It helps hold the tooth in the socket. The cementum contains the periodontal membrane. Periodontal membrane/ligament - the fleshy tissue between tooth and the tooth socket; it holds the tooth in place. The fibers of the periodontal membrane are embedded within the cementum. 1

4 Prevalence Far Reaching Effects Oral disease is the #1 health problem diagnosed in dogs & cats 85% of all adult dogs & cats have some degree of periodontal disease Only 25% of dogs and cats get treatment All pets are at risk for developing dental problems Bacteria from plaque and tartar can enter the blood stream and go to the Heart Liver Kidneys Flip-A-Lip Dental Diseases (General) Plaque/Tartar The Root of the Problem Plaque Soft, sticky material that accumulates on teeth from food debris and bacteria - brush Tartar (Calculus) Calcified plaque Plaque Tartar Gingivitis Binds to calcium in saliva Reversible! Periodontitis Irreversible! 4
5 Gingivitis Periodontitis Inflamed/infected gums 75% of cats show signs of gum disease by the age of 3 Gingivitis can interfere with diabetes treatment Inflammation of the tissues that surround and support the teeth leading to loss of alveolar bone. Periodontitis Tooth Root Infections Bacterial infection deep, under the root Broken/Worn Teeth Dental Disease (Canine) Carnassial abscess 5
6 Gingival Hyperplasia Overgrowth of gum tissue Non-painful swellings Boxer, Great Dane, Collie, Doberman Pinscher, Dalmation Dental Disease (Feline) Resorptive lesions - the most common dental disease of domestic cats, and the most common cause of tooth loss. The lesions often begin below the gumline, so they may develop undetected. 60% of cats over 6 have at least one Cause unknown Stomatitis Inflammation of the gums and surrounding tissue Very painful Cause unknown Autoimmune? Hypersensitivity to plaque? Conventional Treatment full mouth extractions! Holistic Treatment laser, EFA supplement, homeopathy Stomatitis Squamous Cell Carcinoma 6
