General dental practice has never been more interesting, and the field of tooth wear satisfies so many aspects of the skills we are trained to use. It requires detective work and lateral thinking, empathy, and listening. Most of all, it’s about offering confidence and reassurance to patients who are often discovering for the first time that chemical and physical forces are damaging their teeth.
But not all tooth wear needs treatment. How then, does a clinician make the distinction, and what drives us to intervene?

This volume of the Pet Owner Educational Atlas series covers the most frequent oral and dental pathologies seen in small animal practice. Pets with dental pathologies usually do not lose their appetite and owners often do not detect if their pet is suffering from oral discomfort or pain. Therefore, early diagnosis of dental pathologies is of vital importance. This book allows veterinarians to explain the importance of early diagnosis to owners, as well as details of their pet’s condition, its possible consequences, and the different treatment options available, among other relevant issues.
