[A clinico-histological study for the diagnosis and classification of spontaneous periodontal diseases in the dog].

Using standardized investigation methods periodontal parameters were proved for diagnostic application of spontaneous periodontal diseases in dogs. The diseases are classified in gingivitis simplex, g. granulomatosa, g. ulcerosa, g. hyperplastica, g. desquamativa, juvenile periodontitis, rapidly progressive p. and chronic p. This proposal can be used for further investigations in experimental dentistry and for therapeutic purposes in veterinary dentistry.
