| Abstract | Recent clinical studies have documented a high prevalence of dental disorders in donkeys. However, there are few studies about the same topic in China. A cross-sectional study was performed to investigate the prevalence of clinicallydiagnosed dental disorders of donkeys in China. A total of 101 jennies which had never received any dental care were examined for the presence of dental disorders under small-holder farm conditions. The prevalence of dental disorders was analyzed by Chi?square test or Fisher's exact correlation test. The strength of association was evaluated using Cramer's V test. Jennies between 2 and 15 years of age were categorized into four age groups. The most common dental disorders were sharp enamel points (100%), incisor diastemata (90.1%) and focal overgrowths (72.3%). Age was moderately related to the presence of ventral convex curvatures, focal overgrowths, wave mouth and canine calculus accumulation ?P <0.05?0.3 |
