Q

Spearing (lancing) Canines

A

MAL1. AKA tusk teeth. Maxillary canines are tipped in a rostral position, trapped by the mandibular canines. Genetic and more prevalent in Shelties and Persians.

24
Q

Base-Narrowed Canines

A

MAL1. Caused by structural narrowing of the mandible or by the eruption of the canines in an overly upright position.

25
Q

Rostral (Anterior) Crossbite

A

MAL1. One or more of the mandibular incisor is labial to the opposing maxillary incisor

26
Q

Caudal (Posterior) Crossbite

A

MAL1. One or more of the mandibular cheek teeth are buccal to the opposing maxillary cheek teeth.

27
Q

Class II Occlusion

A

MAL2. Mandible is shorter than normal.

28
Q

Class III Occlusion

A

MAL3. Either mandibular prognathism or maxillary brachygnathism

29
Q

Mandibular Prognathism

A

MAL3. Mandible is too long.

30
Q

Excess Freeway Space

A

MAL3. Mandibular prognathism, if mandible is “bowed” is can cause excess space between the premolars.

31
Q

Maxillary Brachygnathism

A

MAL3. Shortened maxilla.

32
Q

Asymmetric Skeletal Malocclusion

A

MAL4. Wry bite.

33
Q

Wry Bite

A

MAL4. Uneven mandibular lengths or failure of the maxilla to develop evenly.

34
Q

Gingivitis

A

Inflammation of gingiva that is most often caused by bacterial plaque. Reversible.

35
Q

Periodontitis

A

Inflammation of nongingival periodontal issues (periodontal ligament, alveolar bone). Most common oral disease among dogs and cats.

36
Q

Alveolar Mucositis

A

Inflammation of alveola mucosa.

37
Q

Sublingual Mucositis

A

Inflammation of mucosa on the floor of the mouth.

38
Q

Labial/Buccal Mucositis

A

Inflammation of lip/cheek mucosa.

39
Q

Caudal Mucositis

A

Inflammation of mucosa of caudal oral cavity, bordered medially by the palatoglossal folds nd lateral palatine fold, dorsally by the hard and soft palate, and rostrally by the alveolar and buccal mucosa.

40
Q

Contact Mucositis/Contact Mucosal Ulceration

A

Secondary to mucosal contact with a tooth surface bearing the responsible irritant, allergen, or antigen. AKA contact ulcers and kissing ulcers.

41
Q

Palatitis

A

Inflammation if mucosa covering the hard/soft palate.

42
Q

Glossitis

A

Inflammation of mucosa of the dorsal/ventral tongue surface.

43
Q

Cheilitis

A

Inflammation of the lips, mucocutaneous junction area and skin of the lip.

44
Q

Osteomyelitis

A

Inflammation of the bone and bone marrow.

45
Q

Stomatitis

A

Inflammation of the mucous lining of any of the structures in the mouth.

46
Q

Tonsillitis

A

Inflammation of the palatine tonsil.

47
Q

Pharyngitis

A

Inflammation of the pharynx.

48
Q

Juvenile Periodontitis

A

Young cats (<3y/o). Minimal plaque/calculus but severe gingival inflammation. May progress to chronic ulcerative gingivostomatitis.

49
Q

Stains

A

Results from occlusal wear and exposure of dentine. Not necessarily pathologic.

50
Q

Abraisions

A

Results from repeated friction of the teeth against an external object.

51
Q

Attrition

A

Results from the friction of teeth against teeth.

52
Q

Amelogenesis Imperfecta

A

Genetic/developmental enamel formation and maturation abnormalities.

53
Q

Enamel Hypoplasia

A

Inadequate deposition of enamel matrix. Can affect one or several teeth. May be focal or multifocal.

54
Q

Enamel Hypomineralization

A

Inadequate mineralization of enamel matrix. Often affects several or all teeth.
