The Buccal Cavity. We usually examine the buccal cavity by daylight and without the aid of instruments; artificial illumination with reflectors, lamps, or electric lights is sometimes useful but not necessary. Method of Examination. In the horse and ox the hand is passed into the mouth at the bars, the tongue firmly grasped, and the thumb pressed against the palate. This procedure will, as a rule, cause the animal to open its mouth wide. Another prac- tical method consists in grasping with the hands, on both sides, the upper lips at the commissures and resting the thumbs against the palate. In dogs and cats we grasp, with our hands, the upper and lower jaws, at the same time pressing the lips between the teeth; hereupon the animal opens its mouth wide enough to permit inspection. Restless animals must first be secured and then towels or cords are passed between the dental arches, and by means of these the jaws are forced apart..
