Feline Dentistry: Oral Assessment, Treatment, and Preventative Care

Feline Dentistry: Oral Assessment, Treatment, and Preventative Care is the only current reference devoted to feline dentistry. It brings together information on anatomy, pathology, radiology, dental equipment, anesthesia, treatment, and medical and surgical dental care of the cat. This text serves as a complete guide to the diagnosis and management of both general dental problems, including periodontal diseases, endodontic diseases, orthodontic disease, 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 anesthetic and diagnostic considerations, creating a treatment plan, and plaque control methods. Fully illustrated with over 700 color images throughout, Feline Dentistry: Oral Assessment, Treatment, and Preventative Care is an essential reference for any veterinarian treating feline patients.
