Abstract
Periodontal disease compromises pet health, longevity and welfare, but is not always clinically evident on oral examination. In one study, dental radiographs identified clinically significant pathology in 27.8% of clinically normal teeth in dogs and 41.7% in cats.. Consequently, the use of dental radiography results in improved identification and treatment of disease, resulting in better clinical outcomes for patients.
