Dental clinic for
Pets and small animals
Health starts with the teeth, a wisdom that applies not only to humans but also to animals. Unfortunately, this rule is all too often disregarded. We are well equipped and can help the animals efficiently and expediently, even if they are a bit older.
Dental hygiene
We always start with dental hygiene (DH) in dogs and cats, in which dental plaque and tartar is removed using ultrasound technology. In order to be able to carry out this somewhat unpleasant treatment on dogs and cats and also reach the inside of the teeth, we require sedation, which can usually be carried out well and safely even in older animals. To minimize the risk, we naturally examine every patient beforehand, ideally supplemented with a blood analysis adapted to the patient.
Dental clinic for small pets like rabbits and guinea pigs
As the teeth of rabbits and pet rodents are constantly growing back, the teeth can very quickly become too long or malformed if they are in the wrong position or if they are not fed properly. However, this does not only apply to the clearly visible incisors, the molars must also be checked regularly. Action must be taken at the latest when you see that an animal is losing weight or is letting out poorly ground food. We can correct the position of the teeth under light anesthesia. If damaged or loose teeth are detected, we must remove them.
Dental survey
Once the tartar has been removed, we can examine the oral cavity in detail and check each individual tooth. Damaged or inflamed teeth are identified and, if possible, treated and preserved. Unfortunately, there are always teeth that are too damaged and painful to be left in the mouth.

Dental X-ray
In order to assess the roots of the teeth, we usually need X-ray images. We use a state-of-the-art, digital dental X-ray machine that can show even the finest structures.

Tooth extractions with ultrasound
The damaged and painful teeth are extracted under anesthesia, the root cavities are rinsed and sutured. New since 2025, we use a highly innovative technology to remove the teeth as gently as possible and greatly reduce the pain after the procedure: Ultrasonic surgery. This also allows the teeth to be removed more quickly, which can significantly shorten the anesthesia time. Multi-rooted teeth must be divided so that each root can be completely removed.
Polish
Finally, the plaque on the teeth is polished away to prevent tartar from forming again too quickly. A fluorine treatment can help to protect the enamel. This is followed by prophylaxis, for which we can offer a wide range of products that are well accepted by patients.
Beak corrections in turtles and birds
And not to forget: Patients without teeth, like turtles and birds, at least have a beak! It has to fit too! In many animals, the beak can become too long or crooked, even with a good range of 'nibbling and wetting opportunities'.
Correction of the beak is possible in most cases without sedation or anesthesia, as the procedure is painless.
