Abstract
Dentistry naturally invokes images of procedures that can and often do produce at least some level of discomfort. Many procedures regularly performed in exotic companion mammals are by nature likely to be at least moderately painful. Modern anesthetic and analgesic agents provide a wide range of choices for protocols chosen to enhance exotic companion mammal patient safety and comfort, and include modalities such as injectable induction and anesthetic agents, and local anesthesia and analgesia.
