N2 - Nineteen free-ranging maned wolves (Chrysocyon brachyurus) were captured in central Brazil from April through November 2003. Oral cavity examination revealed 34 teeth with crown trauma in twelve animals. Canine teeth were most commonly affected (44.2 %), followed by premolar (29.4 %) and incisor teeth (26.5%). Trauma to maxillary teeth (67.7 %) was more frequent compared with mandibular teeth (32.3 %). The majority of dental fractures were located at the cuspid portion of the crown (56.0 %). Slab fractures were the most frequent type (37.0 %), followed by horizontal (24.0 %), oblique (24.0 %) and longitudinal fractures (15.0 %). Complicated crown fracture (pulp exposure) was diagnosed in 13 (38.2%) of these teeth while pulpitis noted by tooth discoloration was diagnosed in 8 (23.5 %) teeth.
