THE ANIMAL DENTIST

Nero, the handsome seven-year-old African lion, can obviously sense, early though it still is, that this is not
going to be just another day. (1)……….

The courtyard outside is bustling with people carrying bottles, syringes,drugs,drups,and bandages and in half an
hour a mini operating theatre is set up right on Nero’s doorstep(2………)

Nero’s broken canine(one of his four front teeth) was spotted by a keeper a few weeks before. “The nerve in the
tooth is now totally dead”, explains veterinary dentist Peter Kertesz, who has worked on animals’ teeth for 14
years.(3)……….

Peter and his assistant Samatha divide their time betweeb working with human (Mondays to Thursdays) and
treating animals(Fridays). Under the name Zoodent International, Peter,47, performs more dental work on
animals than any other practice in the word(4)……….

“Working with animals is much more difficult than with humans” he says, as Samatha lays out the rows of
dental instruments “You get feedback from people and can develop a relationship with them. With an animal , I
have to make an on-the-spot diagnosis and work very quickly”(5)……..

Peter now moves close to the bars of Nero’s cage and expectly direcrs atiny, plastic blowpipe dart, containing a
high dose of anaesthetic, into the lion’s thigh(6)………..

</div>
<span class='text_page_counter'>(3)</span><div class='page_container' data-page=3>

looks sadly undignified. But this is an ideal opportunity for Peter to inspect him for any other detal problems.(7)

………..

Peter discovers a tooth that needs filling and he sets about doing that first. “This is the same stuff as we use for
humen teeth” he says, packing the amalgam into the cavity. “There’s just more of it”(8)……….
The detal work now over, peter removes the tube from the lion’s mouth. Without the supply of gas, Nero will
start coming round fairly quickly, so the keepers move fast to drag him back to his cage. As peter packs up the
lion stirs. The great yellow eyes are beginning to lose their drugged look.”Don’t be fooled” says Peter. “He
might appear sleepy but he could react very quickly if he wanted to…”

A. Nero lets out a loud grol,before slumping to the floor of his cage. Peter waits for a few minutes before giving
the all-clear to unlock the heavy barred door.

B. “I often say I’ve worked on the A to Z of animals , but I actually haven’t done a zebra yet” he says, laghing
and strapping on rubber knee pads that will allow him to kneek comfortably on Nero’s jaws throughout the
operation

C. Once the filling is completed, Peter removes the rotten tooth from Nero’s upper jaw. He levers it away from
its neighbors and tugs it out, leaving a hole which he then stitches up

D.”It could becaome infected and result in an abscess. An infected tooth may eventually kill an animal once the
bacteria enter the bloodstream. A dental problem may also prevent an animal hunting successfully , so it may
not be able to feed itself”

E. Samantha checks that everything is in place and that they’ve got enough room to move among all the pipes
and tubes sorrounding them. Once everything’s ready, she signals to peter that they are all set for the patienr
F. He hs spent the night in his cage, as usual, but now when he should be prowling through the Safari Park ,
he’s still here. He paws irritably at the bars of his cage.

G. As he roars his disapproval, the lion reveals the badly chipped front tooth that is the reason for all the fuss.
Today , the dentist is visiting the king of the jungle.

H. “Most pets are fed a balanced diet with the right nutrients and vitamins, but they are not fed a natural diet”
says peter “The tinned food we feed them doesn’t contain the fibre, which is a self cleaning agent, that a wild
animal would eat. In stead, it leaves a sticky deposit that is bad for the teeth”
