Dr. Roger exposes one of the most troubling and common acts of malpractice in veterinary medicine: engaging in oral surgery to extract diseased teeth without dental x-ray capability.  He explains why dental x-ray is not only an invaluable diagnostic tool for recognition of lesions below the gumline (40% of dental lesions in cats, 25% of dental lesions in dogs), but why it is a potential act of veterinary malpractice to perform tooth extractions without post extraction dental x-rays.
