da Silva LA, da Silva RA, Branco LG, et al.
Quantitative radiographic evaluation of periapical bone
resorption in dog’s teeth contaminated with bacterial
endotoxin (LPS) associated or not with calcium hydroxide.
Braz Dent J 2008; 19(4): 296-300.

A

It may be
concluded that calcium hydroxide was effective in inactivating
LPS, as demonstrated by the absence of apical periodontitis in
the roots that were filled with bacterial endotoxin plus calcium
hydroxide.

Evaluation of the risk of endocarditis and other
cardiovascular events on the basis of the severity of
periodontal disease in dogs.
J Am Vet Med Assoc 2009; 234(4): 486-494.

A

The strongest association in the current study was between stage 3 periodontal disease and an increased risk of endocarditis. The risk of endocarditis was 6 x higher for dogs in peril stage 3 group cf the non periodontal group
The study reported here revealed a significant relation- ship between periodontal disease and an increased risk of endocarditis and cardiomyopathy in pet dogs.

Fatal venous air embolism in a cat undergoing dental
extractions.
J Small Anim Pract 2008; 49(11): 601-604.

A

The cause of death was massive air embolism In this case, we believe that the air jet from the cooling system provided an enormous pressure gradient allowing air entry through an alveolar bone fracture or the inflamed gingival tissues

Expression of osteocalcin during surgically assisted rapid
orthodontic tooth movement in beagle dogs.
J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2008; 66(12): 2467-2475.

A

The average total movement of the first premolars in 4 weeks on the experimental side (1.868 􏰁 0.022 mm) was approximately double that on the sham side (1.008 􏰁 0.057 mm). As regards the average total anchorage loss, no significant difference (P 􏰂 .05) was revealed. Dynamic osteocalcin concentrations presented at 4 time periods (P 􏰃 .05). The staining intensity of osteocalcin on the experimental sides was higher than the corresponding sham sides, and that on the compression sites higher than the corresponding tension sites (P 􏰃 .05).
The results suggested that alveolar surgery might serve as an effective and safe way to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement, and promote the rate of bone remodeling as revealed by the expression of osteocalcin.

Enhancement of healing kinetics of periapical lesions in
dogs by the Apexum procedure.
J Endod. 2009; 35(1): 40-45.

A

The Apexum protocol was designed to carry the debridement concept one step further into the apical foramen proper and beyond it into the periapical lesion itself
The present study was aimed to initially assess the safety and efficacy of the new Apexum procedure in the treatment of induced periapical lesions in dogs.
In the current study, the healing of periapical lesions in the Apexum-treated group was significantly faster than in the conventional treatment group

Nackaerts O, Jacobs R, Quirynen M, et al.
Replacement therapy for periodontitis: pilot radiographic
evaluation in a dog model.
J Clin Periodontol 2008; 35(12): 1048-1052.

A

The bone density within periodontal pockets treated with beneficial bacteria improved significantly after 12 weeks, while this was non‐significant for the control pockets, receiving a single root planing at baseline. There was a significant increase in the bone level at the end of the study for the pockets receiving beneficial bacteria. Again, no significance was noted for the control pockets.
This pilot study indicates the potential effect of a subgingival application of beneficial species in periodontal pockets, and illustrates the strength of standardized follow‐up radiography to evaluate the effects of different treatment strategies on bone re‐modelling.

Peddle GD, Drobatz KJ, Harvey CE, et al.
Association of periodontal disease, oral procedures, and
other clinical findings with bacterial endocarditis in dogs.
J Am Vet Med Assoc 2009; 234(1): 100-107.

A

Results did not provide any evidence of an association between bacterial endocarditis in dogs and either dental or oral surgical procedures or oral infection. Findings suggested that the routine use of prophylactic antimicrobial administration in dogs undergoing oral procedures needs to be reevaluated. (J Am Vet Med Assoc 2009;234:100–107)

Biomechanical evaluation of the equine masticatory action:
Calculation of the masticatory forces occurring on the
cheek tooth battery.
J Biomech 2009; 42(1): 67-70. Epub 2008 Dec 3.

A

The masticatory forces increased from rostral to caudal. This increase was due to distinct anatomical features of the equine dentition, i.e. the Curve of Spee, the position of the teeth, and the length of the mandible. (2) The masticatory forces decreased with age. This decrease was due to the reduced height of the Curve of Spee in older horses

A feasibility study evaluating an in situ formed synthetic
biodegradable membrane for guided bone regeneration in
dogs.
Clin Oral Implants Res 2009; 20(2): 151-161

A

The in situ forming synthetic membrane made of PEG was safely used in the present study, revealing no biologically significant abnormal soft-tissue reaction and demonstrated similar amounts of newly formed bone for defects treated with the PEG membrane compared with defects treated with a standard collagen membrane.

Locking compression plate osteosynthesis of complicated
mandibular fractures in six horses.
Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol 2009; 22(1): 54-58.

A

control.Two 3.5 mm LCP were used in the foal.
Plate fixation was supported by application of a cerclage wire
construct between the incisor and premolar teeth in most
patients. Complete fracture healing, with an excellent functional
and cosmetic outcome, was achieved in all of the patients.
Complications encountered included seroma formation, screw
and wire breakage, as well as implant and apical tooth root
infections.

A
The rate of equine CT regular secondary dentine deposition varies between 0.5 and 10 lm/ day
Maxillary dentine (both primary and secondary) found to be much thicker (72% in primary and 43% in regular secondary den- tine) on the medial, compared to the lateral aspects of pulp horns
Mandibular CT (15% increased thickness in primary and 14% increase in regular secondary dentine on medial as compared to lateral aspects)
Secondary dentine was significantly thicker in sub-occlusal than in mid-tooth sections.

A

The most common cheek teeth
abnormalities detected were sharp enamel edges (present in
96.3 % of horses), focal overgrowths (64.3 %), fissure fractures
(54.3 %), diastemata (24.3 %) and infundibular hypoplasia/caries
(48.3 %).
