Periodontal Disease in a Young Cat Canine Tooth

This is a 4 year old cat with extrusion, 3 mm pockets.  Radiographic changes show increased PDL space apical to the marginal bone, consistent with periodontal disease.  Other teeth show no changes.  Likely this cat traumatized the tooth predisposing it to periodontal changes.
