Dental caries (non-human)
Dental caries, also known as tooth decay, is uncommon among companion animals.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.avds-online.org/info/cavities.html )〕 The bacteria ''Streptococcus mutans'' and ''S.sanguis'' cause dental caries by metabolising sugars.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://en.wikivet.net/Dental_Caries )〕
The term ''feline cavities'' is commonly used to refer to feline odontoclastic resorptive lesions, however, sacchrolytic acid-producing bacteria (the same responsible for Dental plaque) are not involved in this condition.
== In dogs ==
Although rarely seen in cats, the incidence of caries in dogs has been estimated at approximately 5%.〔Hale FA. "Dental caries in the dog." ''J Vet Dent.'' 1998 Jun;15(2):79-83. PMID 10597155.〕 Dogs are less likely than humans to have tooth decay due to the very high pH of dog saliva, which prevents an acidic environment from forming and the subsequent demineralization of enamel which would occur.〔Chris C. Pinney, The Illustrated Veterinary Guide for Dogs, Cats, Birds, and Exotic Pets (Blue Ridge Summit, PA: TAB Books, 1992), p. 187.〕 In the event that tooth decay does occur (usually from trauma), dogs can receive dental fillings just as humans do.
