26
Q

Thermoplastic Inclined Plane Aligner for Correction of Bilateral Mandibular Canine Tooth Distoclusion in a Cat

What is Class 2 malocclusion?

A

Mandibular distocclusion (EITHER mandibular brachygnathism or maxillary prognathism)

27
Q

Thermoplastic Inclined Plane Aligner for Correction of Bilateral Mandibular Canine Tooth Distoclusion in a Cat

What are the three things orthodontic movement requires?

A

35-60 grams

36
Q

Thermoplastic Inclined Plane Aligner for Correction of Bilateral Mandibular Canine Tooth Distoclusion in a Cat

How long are retainers recommended for?

A

2-6 weeks for simple movements; 4-12 weeks for complex movements — or, about half the time it took to complete the movement

37
Q

Rostral mandibles

38
Q

Odontoameloblastoma in a Calf

Did the mass have any mitotic figures? If so, how many per high powered field?

A

No

39
Q

Odontoameloblastoma in a Calf

What are the stages of tooth development?

A

Bud -> cap -> bell -> appositional -> maturation

40
Q

Odontoameloblastoma in a Calf

What is the most common type of odontogenic tumor in cattle?

A

Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO)

41
Q

Odontoameloblastoma in a Calf

Should Odontoameloblastoma be treated as a benign or aggressive tumor?

A

Aggressive - it expands by infiltrating bony trabeculae and has a high rate of recurrence

42
Q

Odontoameloblastoma in a Calf

Histologically, what is the difference between Odontoameloblastoma and Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma?

A

The odontogenic epithelium is well differentiated in Odontoameloblastoma (OA) and composed of peripheral palisading ameloblasts with “reverse polarity” surrounding large areas of stellate reticulum-like tissue (enamel). The odontogenic epithelium is less differentiated for Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) and composed of epithelial cords with peripheral palisading but scant to absent stellate reticulum-like tissue. Also, stroma is well differentiated, mature, and dense in OA and AFO stroma is highly cellular and immature.
