131 Portable air-driven dental apparatus and methods US176005 1998-10-20 US6086368A 2000-07-11 Robert G. Randolph
A portable dental apparatus for treating patients or animals in remote locations comprises a dental drill driven by an air turbine; a pressurized air supply for driving the turbine and for pressurizing a water supply; and connections and valving for operating the drill and cooling it with a stream of water from the water supply and for squirting air or water from the air and water supplies with a squirt nozzle. Tile pressurized air supply derives its air from manual pumping, preferably with a double-action pump and a check valve to minimize fluctuations in the air flow rate. Such a pump either forms part of the air supply or is used to fill an inflatable container. The air supply may consist of the inflatable container alone, or of one or two double-action pumps, or of the container and one pump. The water supply comprises a can having a capped opening at or near its top for filling with water when needed, a tubule extending from its inside near its base to above its top, and a threaded opening in or near its base into which is screwed an adapter that can be either plugged or used to enlarge the capacity of the water supply. The apparatus also comprises quick disconnect and connect tubing between the air supply, valving, water supply, drill, and squirting nozzle to facilitate its assembly and disassembly.

138 Tartar remover and method of use US922372 1986-10-23 US4752220A 1988-06-21 Ursula B. Dietrich
A tartar remover, particularly useful for removing gross tartar deposits from the teeth of dogs and cats, includes first and second elongate members mounted to another at a central pivot. The elongate members include handles on one side of the pivot and jaws on the other side of the pivot. The first jaw tip has a transversely oriented cutting edge with sharp corners to engage the gross tartar deposits. The length of the second jaw, measured from the pivot to the tip of the jaw, is about 3 mm longer than the length of the first jaw. The tartar remover is used by first placing the inner surface of the second jaw against the tip of a tooth. The cutting edge of the first jaw is then positioned under the gross tartar deposit so that when the handles are squeezed, the tartar is cracked off the tooth.
139 Method for splinting animal teeth US304628 1981-09-22 US4412818A 1983-11-01 Adam R. Thomson
The economic value of an animal (e.g. a sheep) is enhanced by bonding the incisor teeth together in a group, when the teeth are fully matured, but before trauma of the teeth has occurred, with an apertured brace which is bonded to the group of teeth by means of a hardened bonding composition to leave the incisal edges of the group of teeth exposed. The invention also relates to a splint for stabilizing animal teeth to reduce the risk of trauma.
