- A rare case of congenital biliary tree malformation, specifically an umbilicobiliary fistula linked to gallbladder agenesis, was reported in a 1-year-old male French bulldog.

Reverse engineering and additive manufacturing allow the technician to create an easier, faster and more accurate restoration, with a natural design and adequate strength. Eighteen titanium alloy full crowns were produced for canine teeth of 7 working dogs using CAD/CAM technology (3D BioCare, Nobel Biocare).
