Resumo
The dental plaque is the primary factor for gingivitis
formation, dental calculus, oral malodor and periodontal disease.
To evaluate the amount of dental plaque removed by the dental
brush and thumb-stall, 60 male and female dogs of different
races, age and weight were divided in two groups and studies.
The index of Logan & Boyce was used to quantify the dental
plaque before and after the toothbrush. Statistical difference was
observed (p <0.05) in the removal of the bacterial plate before
and after toothbrush. There was not statistical difference (p>0.05)
between the use of the dental brush and the thumb-stall.
