Introduction

Equine dentistry is a recent discipline that addresses the need to understand and know precisely the anatomy and normal wear of teeth, in order to guide the actions of the veterinarian. This specialization, developed by the European College of Veterinary Dentistry (ECVD) for veterinarians or equine dentistry training, uses medical imaging to complete the clinical examination of teeth (x-rays, CT scans). Image interpretation requires a good understanding of normal anatomical structures.
This vet-Anatomy module contains illustrations dedicated to the anatomy of the teeth, the wear of the incisors depending on the age of the horse, the dental pulp and the gums. These labeled anatomical illustrations are presented in the form of an illustrated atlas of the dental region. The aim of this atlas is to help students, practicing veterinarians, and veterinary dentists understand the anatomy of structures in the oral area.
 

Material and methods


52 original medical illustrations have been created, describing the incisors, canines, premolars and molars, their orientations and numbering, the maxillary sinuses, the dental pulp, the gums, the wear of the incisors according to age, the vascularization and the innervation in the horse.

These anatomical illustrations were done by Estelle Demange, Scientific illustrator (IMAIOS - Montpellier, France), under the anatomical and scientific supervision of Stephan Mahler, DVM (IMAIOS - Montpellier, France) and Antoine Micheau, MD (Radiologist, IMAIOS - Montpellier, France).

The anatomical structures were labeled, following the Nomina Anatomica Veterinaria (sixth edition - 2017 by I.C.V.G.A.N.), and grouped by topics:

  • General anatomy
  • Bones
  • Dental pulp
  • Teeth
    • Incisor teeth
    • Canine teeth
    • Molar and premolar teeth
    • Dental nomenclature
    • Face and orientation of teeth
    • Universal numbering system
  • Gum
  • Arteries
  • Veins 
  • Nerves
