Periodontal disease occurs naturally in a wide range of species from rodents to humans. Clinical studies document the development of periodontal disease. Histopathology reveals the inflammatory response to plaque accumulation. This article presents a review of the clinical and histopathological features of periodontal disease in the dog.
