The primary objective of veterinary orthodontics is to provide a comfortable bite for companion animals. Cosmetics are often improved as well. Traumatic malocclusions can be painful for pets and painfully expensive for owners. The key to success in clinical veterinary orthodontics is case selection. There is no substitute for a thorough diagnosis and treatment planning. There are many cases of malocclusion where correction to a normal scissors bite is neither possible nor necessary. Always look for an underlying skeletal base problem when considering orthodontic correction or intervention.
