Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a stress-free, relatively safe method supporting the treatment of many different diseases. Although it is widely used in human medicine (including dentistry), in veterinary medicine, especially in the treatment of horses, there are not many scientifically described and documented cases of its use. Equine Odontoclastic Tooth Resorption and Hypercementosis syndrome is a disease that affects older horses and significantly reduces their quality of life. The only effective treatment for this condition is extraction of the incisors. The described case compares the recovery process of the alveolar area after extraction of incisors during the course of EOTRH syndrome without and with the use of a chamber, in horses with the same clinical picture of the disease, of the same age, and living in the same conditions. According to the authors' knowledge, the presented case describes the use of a chamber in equine dentistry for the first time.
高压氧疗法（HBOT）是一种无压力、相对安全的方法，可辅助治疗多种不同疾病。尽管它在人类医学（包括牙科）中广泛应用，但在兽医学领域，尤其是在马的治疗方面，其应用的科学描述和记录案例并不多。马牙质吸收和牙槽骨增生综合征是一种影响老龄马的疾病，会显著降低它们的生活质量。针对这种病症唯一有效的治疗方法是拔除门齿。所描述的案例比较了在患有相同临床症状、相同年龄且生活条件相同的马中，在马牙质吸收和牙槽骨增生综合征病程中，拔除门齿后不使用和使用高压氧舱时牙槽区域的恢复过程。据作者所知，该案例首次描述了高压氧舱在马牙科中的应用。
