Kedi ve Köpeklerde Periodontal Hastalığın Oluşma İnsidansı ve Tedavi Seçenekleri

Bu çalışmada kedi ve köpeklerde peridontal hastalığın insidansının ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada S.Ü. Veteriner Fakültesi Cerrahi Anabilim Dalı, Konya ve Petcode Hayvan Hastanesine, Ankara, getirilen 150’şer adet farklı cins, ırk, ağırlık ve yaşta köpek ve kedi kullanıldı. Olgular periodontal hastalık, gingivitis, diş çürüğü, aşınma, süt dişi, mine defekti, kırık, gingival hiperplazi ve çekilme, stomatit, diş rezorpsiyonu gibi parametreler göz önünde bulundurularak değerlendirildi. Klinik ve radyolojik muayeneler yapıldı. Kedilerin 89'u dişi ve 61 tanesi erkek, köpeklerde ise bu oran 72 dişi, 78 erkekdir. Kedilerde periodontal hastalığa yatkınlık melez ırklarda ve Scottish fold’larda %75 civarında gözlenirken; küçük cins köpeklerde hastalığa yatkınlık %80 olarak kaydedilmiştir. İki yaşındaki hastaların %80’ninin en az 1 dişinde periodontal hastalık gözlendi. Kedilerde ilk olarak maksillar 108. ve 208. dişlerinde problem görülürken, bunu takiben 107. ve 207. dişlerinin de etkilendiği görülmüştür. Küçük parça (cips) kırığı (108. ve 208. dişler) sebebiyle 5 yaşını aşmış köpeklerin %60'ında periodontal hastalık mevcuttur.150 kediden 33'ünde feline mukozit (gingivostomatit) görülürken 14'ünde total diş çekimi yapılmıştır. Yapılan anketler sonunda kedi sahiplerinin 38 tanesinin dişlerini fırçalaması gerektiğini bilirken,11 tanesinin düzenli diş fırçaladığı ve 9 tanesinin ağzının patolojik olmadığı not edilmiştir. Köpek sahiplerinin ise 87 tanesi diş fırçalaması gerektiğini bildiği halde, 42 tanesi diş fırçalamaktadır. Sonuç olarak, ilk altı aylık sürede yavru kedi ve köpeklere diş fırçalama alışkanlığı kazandırmak ağız ve diş sağlığının korunması için esas şart olduğu görülmüştür. Veteriner hekimler tarafından hasta sahipleri ağız ve diş sağlığı yönünden bilgilendirilmeli ve periodontal hastalığa yatkınlığın yaş ve evde bakım ile doğru orantılı olduğu gösterilmelidir.

Incidence of Periodontal Disease and Treatment Optionsin Cat and Dogs

The aim of this study is to reveal the incidence of peridontal disease in dogs and cats. In this study, 150 dogs andcats of different breeds, weights and ages, which were brought to S.U. The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, SurgeryDepartment, Konya and Petcode Animal Hospital, Ankara, were used. The cases were evaluated according toparameters such as periodontal disease, gingivitis, tooth decay, abrasion, milktooth, enamel defect, fracture, gingivalhyperplasia and recession, stomatitis, and tooth resorption. Clinical and radiological examinations were performed.While 89 of the cats are female, 61 of the male and in dogs this ratio is 72 females and 78 males. The susceptibilityto periodontal disease in cats was observed around 75% in cross breeds and Scottishfolds; The susceptibility todisease was recorded as 80% in small breed dogs. Periodontal disease was observed in at least 1 tooth of 80% ofthe patients aged two years. In cats, it was observed that the maxillary 108th and 208th teeth had problems whilethe 107th and 207th teeth were also affected. 60% of dogs over 5 years old have periodontal disease due to chipsfracture (108th and 208th teeth). 33 of 150 cats had gingivostomatitis, 14 had total tooth extraction. As a result ofthe surveys, it was noted that 38 of the cat owners knew that they should brush their teeth, 11 of them brush theirteeth regularly and 9 of them were not pathological. It is emphasized that 87 of the dog owners knows brushing,but 42 of them brush teeth. As a result, it has been observed that giving puppies and dogs the habit of brushingteeth during the first six months is essential for the protection of oral and dental health. Clients should be informedabout oral and dental health by veterinarians and it should be shown that the susceptibility to periodontal diseaseis directly proportional to age and home care.
