In order to get insight in the prevalence of dental diseases in dogs and cats and dental treatments, a postal survey amongst veterinarians in the Netherlands was carried out. 70% of the veterinarians answered to practice routine oral examinations of dogs and cats. Of dental diseases observed in dogs and cats periodontal diseases were most often mentioned. Dental treatments as calculus removal and extractions were performed by nearly all veterinarians. 50% of the veterinarians asked for assistance of a dentist in case a dental treatment could not be performed by themselves.
