Sažetak
In this review article, feline odontoclastic resorptive lesion (FORL) was compared with human caries as the most commonly diagnosed disease in the oral cavity of both species. FORL is the most common disease of teeth in felines and causes pain, gingival inflammation, destruction of periodontal tissue and tooth loss. FORL is a progressive disease and the only treatment is tooth extraction. It is clinically manifested by hyperplastic or hyperemic gingivitis, and the lesions are usually located in the area of the neck of the tooth and are called cervical lesions. Specific changes that occur in feline odontoclastic resorptive lesion are hypercementosis, which causes bulb on the roots and super-eruption and thickening of the bone along the alveolar surface. Caries is the second most common human ailment and usually appears in places where food remains trapped and dental plaque is formed, i.e. in the tooth fissures, surfaces between teeth and the cervical parts of the tooth crown. Symptoms may include eating disorders and pain, while possible complications include inflammation of the gingiva, infection or abscess and loss of teeth. The initial carious lesion usually begins as a process of demineralization on smooth surfaces and appears as a white blur or white stain. Specific changes in caries are tubular sclerosis, pulp response at different stages of caries development in the form of tertiary dentine and gingival recession. Medical treatment of caries can be conservative or surgical. In conclusion, FORL and caries differ in their symptoms, etiology and therapy, while the most important difference is in their histopathology.
