RACE-Approved for 6 CE Credits
Participants will receive a certificate of completion upon successful completion of the course.
Feline tooth resorption is one of the most common and painful oral diseases in cats, yet it is often underdiagnosed due to subtle clinical signs and reliance on visual examination alone. Accurate diagnosis requires a systematic approach, including anesthetized oral examination and full-mouth dental radiographs. This clinically focused, case-based course reviews disease classification, radiographic interpretation, and treatment decision-making for feline tooth resorption. Participants will develop a practical approach to differentiating lesion types and determining appropriate management, including extraction, crown amputation, or monitoring. The course integrates pathophysiology, dental radiograph interpretation, surgical principles, and case-based learning to improve diagnostic accuracy, client communication, and patient outcomes.

“This was one of the most clinically applicable feline dentistry courses I’ve taken. The detailed explanations of intraoral radiographs completely changed how I evaluate tooth resorption cases, especially learning how to systematically assess roots, periodontal ligament space, and surrounding alveolar bone before deciding on treatment. The clinical reasoning behind every resorptive lesion made the material incredibly practical and easy to apply in everyday practice.”
“The section on the maxillofacial and oral examination alone was worth the course. Dr. Congiusta explained not only what to look for, but why subtle oral findings matter in feline patients. I loved how each lesion was approached methodically with radiographic interpretation, probing findings, and surgical decision-making tied together in a way that finally made feline tooth resorption make sense.”
“What separates this course from others is the depth of explanation behind every clinical decision. Instead of simply saying ‘extract this tooth,’ the course walks through the radiographic reasoning, stages of tooth resorption, surrounding periodontal changes, and how to determine appropriate treatment options. The combination of detailed X-ray interpretation, oral examination techniques, and surgical thought process made this course incredibly valuable for improving my confidence with feline dentistry.”
“I’ve taken multiple dentistry CE courses over the years, but this feline tooth resorption course was on another level. The detailed breakdown of intraoral radiographs and the explanation behind each resorptive lesion dramatically improved how I approach diagnosis and treatment planning. The maxillofacial oral exam section was especially valuable because it emphasized subtle findings I previously overlooked in practice.”
“The clinical reasoning throughout this course was exceptional. Instead of memorizing extraction recommendations, I finally understood why certain lesions require different approaches based on radiographic appearance, periodontal involvement, and surrounding bone changes. The oral examination and X-ray interpretation portions were incredibly detailed yet easy to follow.”
“This course completely changed the way I evaluate feline dental radiographs. The explanations of tooth resorption patterns, root replacement, and treatment decision-making were extremely thorough and clinically relevant. I also loved the emphasis on performing a complete maxillofacial and oral exam rather than focusing only on the obvious diseased tooth.”
