Cat Chart

Next>>

 

The cat chart is basically the same as the dog chart with less teeth (30 rather than 42) which have different shapes. Note the importance of the carnassial teeth in the modified Triadan numbering system (BASICS chapter).

One major difference is the addition of the classification for Feline Odontoclastic Resorptive Lesions (FORLs). These lesions are more common in felines than other species. With this exception, all other indices (e.g. CI, GI, PI) are the same.
