Chapter 7 Anatomy and Physiology . 24 Chapter 7: Anatomy and PhysiologyA thorough understanding of dental and oral Anatomy and Physiology is essential for all members of the veterinary dental team. You must know what is normal and be able to quickly recognize the abnormal. Often, an unsedated animal will allow you only a brief look in the mouth and so you must be able to take a mental snap-shot and notice subtle indicators of disease. Much of this ability will come with practice, but it starts here, by studying comparative dental Anatomy and becoming familiar with the language of dentistry. This is but a brief introduction. I had wanted to write this as two separate chapters, but the two subjects are so intimately intertwined that I could not discuss one without discussing the other.
