20.500.12556/RUL-132090 Follow up on simple (closed) extraction of fractured maxillary canine teeth in domestic ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) Fractured canine teeth (especially maxillary canine teeth) are common in domestic ferrets (Mustela putorius furo). We evaluated (detailed oral/dental and radiographic examination under general anesthesia) 18 domestic ferrets affected by 23 complicated crown fractures of periodontally healthy permanent maxillary canine teeth over a 2-year period. Average age of the ferrets at the time of diagnosis was 2.6 years. Only three teeth were discolored on clinical examination. Out of 23 teeth, 22 were radiographically evaluated. No radiographic evidence of endodontic disease was observed in 11/22 canine teeth. Inflammatory root resorption was observed in 5/22, periapical lucency in 5/22 teeth, apical widening of periodontal ligament space in 6/22 teeth, and failure of the pulp cavity to narrow in 3/22 teeth. All animals were treated by simple (closed) extraction of the affected teeth. Histological examination of eight teeth was performed. Pulp appeared histologically vital in five (3/5 showed no radiographic evidence of endodontic disease), pulpitis was diagnosed in two (both without radiographic evidence of endodontic disease) and pulp necrosis in one case (dental radiographs revealed apical widening of periodontal ligament space and failure of the pulp cavity to narrow). All extraction sites healed uneventfully by the 2-week recheck examination. Long-term follow-up revealed development of post-extraction upper lip entrapment with mandibular canine tooth in eight out of 18 ferrets, which appeared clinically irrelevant. According to clients seven out of 18 ferrets showed an improved quality of life. Simple tooth extractions are warranted in ferrets affected by complicated crown fracture of the periodontally healthy permanent maxillary canine teeth. canine tooth dental fracture dental extraction ferret wildlife tooth fractures tooth extraction true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Članek v reviji 2021-10-12 11:06:06 2021-10-12 11:06:07 2023-03-24 03:37:00 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 6 str. art. 677680 Vol. 8 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 636.09:616.31 2297-1769 10.3389/fvets.2021.677680 63081475 RAZ_Primozic_Pia_Kristina_2021.pdf RAZ_Primozic_Pia_Kristina_2021.pdf 1 EE44D110A1FDA0090C49D909DBD6323A a40b5dceafe61528e9e9b6e90dd31b50c4d1d90590a99a3fb556bf8c9cfebc8f 7adff21e-2b3c-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=149609 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fvets.2021.677680/full 1 a41826a0-2b3b-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=149608 Veterinarska fakulteta 0 0 0
