The objective of the study was the standardization of clinical operative restoration dentistry in dogs. The different orodental affections diagnosed and managed during the study were periodontal disease (54.34%), dental attrition and tooth fracture (10.14%), jaw fracture (8.69%), oral neoplasia (5.07%), mis-aligned and over-crowded tooth (5.07%), gingival hyperplasia (5.07%), pulpitis (4.34%), enamel loss (2.17%), dental caries (2.17%), osteodystrophy fibrosa (1.44%), and oral warts (1.44%). Dental scaling with polishing was found very efficacious to remove every bit of plaque and tartar deposited over the tooth surfaces. Oral tumour cases were managed advantageously by incorporating various methods including CO2 laser ablation, wide-margin excision and buccal or gingival flap technique. The jaw fractures were operated with the goal of maintaining normal occlusion and correct interdigitation of teeth which was obtained by a combination of various internal fixation and axillary stabilization with muzzle taping. Surgical extraction of teeth was carried out in the conditions of severe periodontal affections. The teeth with chronic periodontal disease were subjected to surgical extraction after the diagnosis of periodontal ligament breach with the aid of dental radiography. The multi-rooted teeth were sectioned through furcation into the single rooted tooth for unchallenging extraction. The conventional endodontic therapy which is root canal treatment, was carried out in the affections of tooth fractures. The procedure was performed in 4 steps: access preparation, canal debridement, canal obturation, and final obturation. The root canal treatment turned out to be a potential alternative to the extraction of the tooth and was a safer and aesthetically pleasing treatment that maintained the dentition of the dogs.EnglishOperative restoration dentistry in dogsThesis
