Abstract
Feline Stomatitis (FS) is a relatively rare yet debilitating inflammation of the oral cavity of cats. Despite the fact that the true etiology is unknown, a combination of surgical and medical management is the current mainstay of therapy. In this case review, a two-year-old male castrated domestic medium hair cat with mild FS was presented to the Dentistry and Oral Surgery Service at Cornell University's Hospital for Animals. After having full-mouth dental extractions performed, he required minimal medical intervention and is currently living symptom-free.
