摘要
为了确定牙龈指数(GI)及其变化的特征,我们对墨西哥亚热带地区的 218 只家猫进行了研究。用牙周探针检查了每只猫的所有牙齿,以确定牙龈指数;此外,还记录了缺牙情况。六个月后,再次对 38 只猫的牙齿进行检查,以评估 GI 和牙齿脱落的进展情况。在 218 只猫中,33.0% 的猫出现了某种程度的牙龈炎症,其中 61.5% 的猫被归类为 GI 1。 年龄、性别和绝育状况与牙齿受影响有关。35%的猫会出现缺牙现象,尤其是109和209号臼齿。六个月后,出现 GI 1 的牙齿数量下降到 20%。对于猫的牙龈问题,尤其是其发展速度以及如何影响牙齿脱落的问题,还没有进行过很好的研究;在这项研究中,即使在猫幼年时期,牙龈炎症的发生率也很高,而且牙齿脱落的速度也很快。虽然幼年雄猫更容易患牙龈炎,但雌猫的牙齿脱落更多。未绝育的猫患牙病的比例更高。
Prevalence and Progression of Gingivitis in Domestic Cats in Subtropical Mexico
With the objective to characterize the gingival index (GI) and its progression, 218 domestic cats in a subtropical region of Mexico were studied. All teeth of each cat were examined with a periodontal probe to determine the GI; in addition, the absence of teeth was recorded. Six months later, the teeth of the 38 cats were again examined to assess any progression of the GI and loss of teeth. From the 218 cats, 33.0% of them develop some degree of gingival inflammation; from those, 61.5% were classified as GI 1. Age, sex, and neutered status were associated with tooth affections. Missed teeth were observed in 35% of the cats, particularly for molars 109 and 209 in both sexes. After six months, the number of teeth with GI 1 decreased to 20%. The gingival problems in cats have not been well studied, particularly at the speed they progress and how this can affect the loss of teeth; under the conditions of this study, a high frequency of gingival inflammation even at early age was demonstrated, with a rapid tooth loss. Although young males were more prone to develop gingivitis, females tend to loss more teeth. Non-neutered cats tended to develop more dental affections.
