JVD Vet Dentist at Work Flashcards
Why was RCT chosen over VPT for the crown height reduction of the mandibular canine?
2011, issue 2

2011, issue 2
0.2%

What obturation method was used in the adult female polar bear canine tooth RCT?
JVD 2012, issue 1
heated vertical and lateral condensation techniques
The following image depicts what obturation technique?
JVD 2012, Issue 1. Endodontic therapy in a polar bear. Legendre
File coated with heated gutta percha introduced to apex and turned counterclockwise to back out of gutta percha. Repeated to pack homogenous mass of gutta percha into apical 5mm of canal
In Menzies’s 2012 Vet Dentist at Work article “Developmental Tooth Anomaly in a Cat,” what was the development tooth anomaly?
Double crowned left maxillary third premolar tooth with three well formed roots
fusion vs gemination
What is the difference between concresence and fusion?
JVD 2012, Issue 2 Developmental Tooth Anomaly in a Cat, Menzies
Concresence involves sharing of cementum between adjacent teeth.
Fusion involves sharing of both cementum and dentin and sometimes also enamel.
What is the difference between fusion/concresence with gemination and with twinning?
JVD 2012, Issue 2 Developmental Tooth Anomaly in a Cat, Menzies
Concresence and fusion involve the union of tooth buds, gemination involves partial cleavage of a tooth bud, twinning relates to the complete cleavage of tooth bud.
In the image below what do the short white arrows, black arrows heads, short black arrows, black double ended arrow, black dotted line, black dashed circle, white dotted circle, white dotted line represent?
Short white arrows: caudal border of maxillary/nasal recess
Black arrow heads: junction between the body of the maxilla and its palatine process
Short black arrows: ventral rim of orbit
Black double ended arrow: zygomatic arch
Black dotted line: infraorbital canal
Black dashed circle: sphenopalatine foramen
White dotted circle: caudal palatine foramen
White dotted line: laterocaudal notch of palatine bone

Salivary duct papilla
How many roots does the mandibular P4 in the minipig have?
JVD 2012, issue 2
3 roots
In Mulherin’s 2012 article “An alternative symphsyeal wiring technique,” what were the reasons the alternative technique was selected?
JVD 2012, Issue 3
The intraoral technique is a semi-rigid form of fixation which would permit accomodation to dog’s malocclusion.
Reduced anesthesia and surgical time for wire removal
Which nerve innervates the maxillary teeth
JVD 2012, Issue 4, Maxillary Molar Tooth Extraction in the Dog, Vall.
Caudal superior alveolar nerve

What are the advantages of overimpression methods for temporary crown fabrication vs the direct application method?
JVD 2013, Issue 1. “Temporary Crowns,” Carle, Shope
Smoother surface
Better marginal fit
thinner crown less likely to interfere with occlusion
What dental anomaly was discovered in Eubanks’ 2013 article “Dental Anatomy, Radiography, and extraction of mandibular premolar teeth in Yucatan Minipigs,” and what was the most commonly encountered extraction complication?
JVD 2013, Issue 2
Unilateral supernumerary peg-like single rooted teeth between mandibular fourth premolar and first molar teeth
Root fracture secondary to slender, curved roots
How did the practitioner bond the inclined plane to the teeth after shaping the appliance outside the mouth?
JVD 2013, issue 3
Applied bonding agent to the teeth, placed the shaped acrylic, then light cured through the acrylic
Why was a prosthetic applicance pursued in Edstrom’s 2014 article “Prosthetic Appliance for Oronasal Communication Obturation in a Dog,” and what appliance was used?
JVD 2014, Issue 2
