Equine Dental Pathology

چکیده
Equine dental pathology frequently goes undiagnosed. The reasons for this range from a lack of knowledge and appropriate instrumentation to the common dislike many practitioners have for equine dentistry. Dental pathology, however, is very common as shown in multiple cadaver head studies. Pathologic findings include 60% with periodontal disease and 79% with infindibular caries over age 15; 12.9% with developmental or eruption abnormalities; 29.3% with caries and 6.5% with pulp exposure. 1 These numbers do not include common malocculsions which are frequently the initiating factor in more serious pathology.
