Of these, 227 (15.5%) had evidence of osteomyelitis. The lesional profile showed that the mandible was affected in a similar proportion on both sides (46.7% on the right side vs 50.7% on the left side), mainly in the middle region (55.3%) and with most of the lesions closed without fistulisation (89.4%). In addition, swelling was palpable, with an increase in thickness in the area of the affected body (2.65 ¬± 0.065 cm vs 1.74 ¬± 0.030 cm). In 78.6% of the animals, the regional lymph nodes were enlarged. Concerning the mandibular cheek teeth, more than half of the animals lacked at least one tooth (57.0%), with the first premolar being the most frequently missing tooth (34.8%) and the third molar the least (8.2%). The impaction of food around the teeth was very common with the posterior molars being more frequently affected. In the knowledge of the authors, this is the first study that analyses the prevalence of mandibular molar and premolar disorders in sheep, and these are revealed as an important condition affecting culled sheep. 000165508 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA-FSE/Construyendo Aragón 2016–2020 000165508 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess$$aAll rights reserved$$uhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 000165508 590__ $$a1.281$$b2020 000165508 591__ $$aVETERINARY SCIENCES$$b86 / 146 = 0.589$$c2020$$dQ3$$eT2 000165508 592__ $$a0.382$$b2020 000165508 593__ $$aVeterinary (miscellaneous)$$c2020$$dQ2 000165508 593__ $$aMedicine (miscellaneous)$$c2020$$dQ2 000165508 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000165508 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-0042-8800$$aFerrer, L.M.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000165508 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-7822-6646$$aLacasta, D.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000165508 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-4655-9171$$aGonzález, J.M.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000165508 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-3792-287X$$aDe las Heras, M.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000165508 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-4417-7919$$aBorobia, M. 000165508 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-0680-9957$$aBorobia Frías, Marta$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000165508 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-2724-2785$$aRamos, J.J.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000165508 7102_ $$11009$$2773$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
