| What mandibular teeth are most commonly affected by TR in cats? JVD Spring 2012 | '07s and '09s |
| What are the characteristics of TR type 2? JVD Spring 2012 | ankylosis and osteoid remodelling |
| What causes the characteristic changes seen in TR type 2? JVD Spring 2012 | degradation and modification of dentin and cementum into osteoid repair tissue |
| What is the radiographic appearance of teeth with TR type 2? JVD Spring 2012 | PDL space disappears and physiological height of the alveolar crest remains unchanged |
| What is the radiographic appearance of teeth with TR type 1? JVD Spring 2012 | horizontal and vertical bone loss are common with exposure of the furcation, PDL space and roots generally remain unchanged or show signs of periodontitis |
| What is the definition of Stage 3 TR? JVD Spring 2012 | deep dental hard tissue loss that extends to the pulp cavity, most of the tooth RETAINS its integrity |
| What is the definition of stage 4 TR? JVD Spring 2012 | deep dental hard tissue loss that extends to the pulp cavity, most of the tooth HAS LOST its integrity |
| Which portion of the tooth is more affected by TR 4a? 4b? 4c? JVD Spring 2012 | 4a=crown and root equally affected. 4b crown > root. 4c root > crown |
| What treatment is recommended for teeth with 'clearly diagnosed' teeth with TR type 2? JVD Spring 2012 | crown amputation and intentional root retention |

JVD Spring 2012 | epistaxis, hard palate fx +/- tear of palatal mucosa, palatal soft tissue bruiding, mandibular fx, mandibular symphyseal separation, tongue injury, facial soft tissue injury, tental trauma, other oral soft tissue injury, TMJ luxation and fx |
| What has been found regarding serum Vit D3 levels in cats with and without TR? JVD Fall 2010 | Mean serum 25-OH-D levels tend to be lower in cats with TR than in those w/o TR (which is the opposite of what researchers expected to find) |
| Which type of TR might one expect to see associated with high levels of vit D (based on findings of Vit D toxicity in rats)? JVD Fall 2010 | type II |
| What did the study of vitD serum levels in the Royal Canin cat colony find regarding relation to TR prevalence? JVD Fall 2010 | Vit D levels were lowest in cats with many TR lesions and highest in cats with no TR lesions (contradicts other studies and hypothesis) |
| What feline population was studied to use as a possible control set in TR research? JVD Winter 2010 | Swedish Eurasian lynx (wild) |
| What are 3 stimuli that can initiate pathologic TR? JVD Winter 2010 | trauma, orthodontic pressure, inflammation |
| What findings regarding general dental and systemic health may contribute to S.E. lynx population being free of TR? JVD Winter 2010 | good periodontal health and free from infectious dz (i.e. FIV, calicivirus, coronavirus, and herpesvirus) |
| What is the prevalence of TR in wild cats from Namibia compared to domestic cats? JVD Spring 2009 | lower in the wild cats (16%) |

| Where does alendronate accumulate in feline oral tissues? JVD Summer 2009 | subgingival tooth surfaces and adjacent alveolar bone |
| What degree of association was found between perio dz and TR type I in cats? JVD Fall 2009 | strong association |
| Why is Vit D thought to be involved in the process of TR? 2009 vet immunol immunopathol | Vitamin D involvement has been suggested because 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D) stimulates osteoclastogenesis |
