ABSTRACT :
The present investigation deals with comprehensive study on various dental problems in canines. Out of three hundred and fifty five animals that were screened one hundred and seventy three dogs (48.73%) showed various dental problems. These dental problems were divided into four major categories, such as developmental abnormalities, irregular wear and tear, diseases in tooth substance and diseases of alveoli and gums.
Out of the total dental problems 6 (3.46%) had developmental abnormalities, 28 (16.18%) had irregular wear and tear, 92 (53.17%) showed diseases of tooth substance and 47 (27.16%) showed diseases of alveoli and gums.
Among a total of 173 canines that had different dental problems males constiuted 92 (53.17%) and females 81 (46.82%). 10 alsatian (5.78%), 5 daschund (2.89%), 7 dobermann (4.404%), 53 pomeranian (30.63%) and 98 mongels (56.64%) showed various dental problems. Mongrels showed highest incidence followed by pomeranians.Incidence was more in 4-8 yrs age group animals (6.3%). Dogs fed on soft diet showed symptoms like dental calculus and caries and dogs fed an hard diet showed gingivitis. Halitosis was the most commonly observed symptom in 50% of the cases, followed by excessive salivation, receding of gums, periodontitis and bleeding from gums.
The various types of organisms isolated in 25 random samples of periodontitis were Escherishia coli (88%) Streptococcus (84%), Proteus (84%) Salmonella (64%) Staphylococcus (44%), Bacteroides (28%) and Pseudomonas (20%). ABST results showed that majority of cases were sensitive to Amikacin (62%) followed by Ciprofloxacin (51%).
Diagnosis of alveolar periostitis and periodontitis required radiological intervention.
Three oral tumors were diagnosed as odontoma, oral papilloma and Basal cell carcinoma on histopathological examination.
Appropriate therapeutic methods like scaling,extraction of tooth and excision of tumor etc., were adopted in different dental problems.
