98
According to "Scanning electron microscopic study of dentinal tubules in dog canine teeth" Robb, Boy, et al, how does acid etching work?

109
According to "Step by Step: TMJ Luxation in the Cat" by Klima, what is one reason a caudoventral condyle luxation occurs? (less common)

can perform condylectomy
112
According to "A Retrospective Evaluation of 204 Diagonal Incisor Malocclusion Corrections in the Horse" by DeLorey, what is DIM? What is the etiology?
DIM (diagonal incisor malocclusion) diagonally opposite incisors are excessively long creating a tilted or slanted incisor occlusal table. Unknown, many ideas: skeletal deviation, asynchronous eruption of incisors, missing or damaged incisors, severe cheek tooth (CT) malocclusion.... but really nobody knows.
113
According to "A Retrospective Evaluation of 204 Diagonal Incisor Malocclusion Corrections in the Horse" by DeLorey, at rest, where are the incisors and CT (cheek teeth) supposed to be?
incisors are in occlusion lined up, CT are not touching. Only other stability/contact is TMJ besides incisors.
114
According to "A Retrospective Evaluation of 204 Diagonal Incisor Malocclusion Corrections in the Horse" by DeLorey, how do you correct DIM?
Very carefully. Reducing overlong incisor teeth (often staged) by no more than 4mm per incisor to avoid pulp injury (possibly less)
115
According to "A Retrospective Evaluation of 204 Diagonal Incisor Malocclusion Corrections in the Horse" by DeLorey, what is one big downside to fully correcting DIM at once?
It will change EMC (excursion to molar contact) and can affect mastication negatively
116
According to "A Retrospective Evaluation of 204 Diagonal Incisor Malocclusion Corrections in the Horse" by DeLorey, was there a correlation between short side EMC based on direction of DIM?
nope...
117
According to "Malocclusion in a Cave Lion Panthera spelaea", by Barycka, what was the point?
They found some cave lion maxilla and mandible pieces, tried to reconstruct them, and claim due to the wear on some of the shearing teeth there was a malocclusion of one of the premolars. Likely not secondary to disease but genetic/inherited. -_-

190
According to "Histological Evaluation of the Pulp in Teeth from Dogs with Naturally Occurring Periodontal disease" by Nemec (A), Crossley et al, is it controversial to perform perio tx?
No evidence that root planing damages lateral canals or removes cementum enough to induce pulpal trauma (thermal injury is real though)
191
According to "Histological Evaluation of the Pulp in Teeth from Dogs with Naturally Occurring Periodontal disease" by Nemec (A), Crossley et al, what do the authors hypothesize is the most likely the link btwn periodontal disease and pulp?
condition of pulp depends more on duration of advanced PD dz not severity. Pulp necrosis requires PD dz extending to the apex allow bacterial invasion (perio-endo lesion)
