What was the most common injury?
Facial soft tissue injury was the most common finding and was noted in 51.8 % (43/83) of all cats

There were two groups: Cats seeing the dental service and the cats seeing emergency service. In group A (seeing dental service), what was the most common injury?
In group A cats, the most common injury was a fracture in the midline of the hard palate with or without torn palatal soft tissue 78.6 % (11/14)
Torn soft tissue along the midline palate was invariably full-thickness at some point along its length, although the actual length and width of the defect, as well as bony involvement, varied

In Group A (dental service seen cats) fter palatal injury, what was the next most common injury seen? Incidence?
How did this differ from the findigns of all cats?
In group A - Facial soft tissue injury and dental trauma were the second most common injuries, both seen in 71.4 % (10/14) of group A cats (Table 4).
In all cats – facial soft tissue was the most common finding noted at 51.8% and slightly lower for those seen by just emergency (48%)

Of all cats in this study, what was the occurrence of tongue injury?
Other oral soft tissue injury?
Of all cats in the present study, tongue injury and other oral soft tissue injury occurred in 10.8 % and 8.4 %, respectively
In group A, 37.7 % of cats exhibited tongue injury. Other oral soft tissue injuries consisting of lacerations and abrasions were seen in 14.3 % of group A cats and 7.3 % of group B cats.

Luxated teeth were only found in which teeth?
Abrasion was found only of one type of tooth, what was it?
What were the most commonly fractured teeth? Incidence in group A? Incidnece of ALL cats?
What was the second most commonly fractured TEETH in group A? Incidence?
Only incisors were found to be luxated
Abrasions were only found in lower canine teeth
Canine teeth with an incidenc of 35.7% in group A; 12.4% of ALL cats
The second most commonly fractured teeth were the maxillary or mandibular fourth premolar teeth, which were fractured in 14.3 % of cats in group A
In Orofacial Manifestations of High-Rise Syndrome in Cats: A Retrospective Study of 84 Cases. Sarah E. Bonner, DVM; Alexander M. Reiter
In group A (dental service) canine teeth were noted to be fractured in 35.7% og cats. Were the maxillary or mandibular canine teeth more likely to be fractured?
The mandibular canine teeth are more likely to be fractured than maxillary:
In group A, canine tooth fractures were noted in 35.7 % of cats, with 14.2 % of cats having one or both maxillary canine teeth fractured, and 21.4 % of cats having one or both mandibular canine teeth fractured.
In general, what is the frequency of cats with TR?
The frequency of cats with TR varies according to the study protocol and has been reported between 28.5 % in a randomly selected cat population and 67 % in cats that were presented for dental problems
Define the three types of TR.
Type I - crown affected by TR
Type II - root resorption
Type III - both crown and root affected by TR.
Define the five stages of TR
Stage 1 (TR1): Mild dental hard tissue loss (cementum or cementum and enamel)
Stage 2 (TR2): Moderate dental hard tissue loss (cementum or cementum and enamel with loss of dentin that does not extend to the pulp cavity)
Stage 3 (TR3): Deep dental hard tissue loss (cementum or cementum and enamel with loss of dentin that extends to the pulp cavity); most of the tooth retains its integrity
Stage 4 (TR4): Extensive dental hard tissue loss (cementum or cementum and enamel with loss of dentin that extends to the pulp cavity); most of the tooth has lost its integrity (TR 4a) crown and root are equally affected (TR 4b) the crown is more severely affected than the root (TR 4c) the root is more severely affected than the crown
Stage 5 (TR5): remnants of hard dental tissue are visible only as irregular radiopacities and gingival covering is complete
IN Radiographic Changes Associated with Tooth Resorption Type 2 in Cats Susann-Yvonne Mihaljevic, et al.
Of 56 cats that had intentional root retention, what percentage showed continued resorption of that tooth without evidence of inflammation?
What percentage of cats showed continued signs of TR with a completly resorbeed root?
What percentage showed a progression of ankylosis without inflammation?
What percentage showed unchanged TR WITH inflammation?
- 67.8 % were diagnosed with continued resorption that showed a partially visible root remnant(s) WITHOUT inflammation
- 14.3 % also showed continued signs of TR type 2 (group a) with a completely resorbed root(s)
- Additionally, 14.3 % of cats showed a non-resorbed root remnant(s) (group c) with possible progression of ankylosis WITHOUT INFLAMMATION
- 3.6 % constituted those that showed signs of unchanged TR type 2 WITH evidence of an inflamed root remnant(s)
What is the general depth to enamel in dogs?
In the dog, the enamel layer depth is < 0.1 to 0.6 -mm
What are GV Black’s 7 principles of cavity preparation?
GV Black’s 7 principles of cavity preparation:
outline form,
resistance form,
retention form,
convenience form,
pathology removal form,
wall form,
and preparation cleansing form
How many enamel rods are ther per mm2 in dog enamel?
Etching penetration increases the bondable surface of enamel by _____times.
There are 30,000 to 40,000 enamel rods/mm² and the etch penetration increases the bondable surface area 10-20 fold
Etching enamel increases surface tension by ____. Thereby allowing resin tags to penetrate _____um into enamel. Etching increases the bondable surface area ____fold.
More than two times.
10-20um
10-20
List the five types of restoratives available.
composites, compomers, hybrid ionomers, and glass ionomers.
What are the categories of filler sizes in composites?
all purpose, microfilled, nanofilled, microhybrids, nanohybrids, packable, flowable, and laboratory composites.
Is a high or low modulus of elasticity desirable in a composite?
Having a low modulus of elasticity is important. Modulus of elasticity is the STIFFNESS of a material. The lower it is, the better it is to protect the bonding interface. It allows the restoration to bend/flex with the tooth. Microfill composites have a low modulus of elasticity.
Typically conventional composites contain:
________% inorganic filler
Inorganic fillers such as __________________________
With particle sizes ranging from ___________um
75-80% inorganic filler by weight
such as ground quartz, strontium or heavy metal glasses containing barium
particles ranging from 1 to 10um in size
Conventional composites are rougher or smoother than microfill composites?
Rougher
