Canine dental hypomineralization or Raine Syndrom is a genetic disorder affecting the Border Collies.
The disorder causes severe tooth wear resulting in pulpitis and requiring extraction of those teeth.
Dental hypomineralization is a canine model for human Raine Syndrome.
Dental examination of the affected dogs reveals a significant wear.
Lower incisor teeth can be worn close to the gingival margin.
The enamel shows a light brown discoloration and appears dull.
Some worn teeth can have a pulp exposure and pulpits as a result of the wear.
