Veterinary Dentistry in Kiev
Tooth problems come in all kinds of ways:
- Genetic - mainly associated with irregular bite or intense growth of the incisors, as in rodents.
- Acquired as a result of injuries or inadequate oral care.
Symptoms of a tooth disease
A pet can’t complain about a toothache, but if you pay attention, you will notice the problem by the following signs:
- A nasty smell from the mouth.
- Plentiful Salivation.
- Having trouble eating.
- Swelling on the face.
- Stains on dental enamel.
If you find the first symptoms indicating the need for animal dental care, please contact the veterinarian as soon as possible for a thorough examination and diagnosis.
Animal clinic dental services
Dental care begins with a full oral examination. But the diagnosis does not end there - it is necessary to X-ray, because most of the tooth is hidden from examination. Dental X-rays give a detailed picture of possible lesions.
According to regulations established by the European Veterinary and Dental Society and the American Veterinary Dental College, procedures such as cerebral probing, oral X-rays, tooth cleaning and removal are performed only under anaesthesia. That is why a veterinarian anesthesiologist is always present during the diagnosis.
Once the anaesthetic plan has been drawn up in accordance with the age of the animal and the concomitant diseases, the pet will be placed under anaesthesia. Thus, the animal does not sink into a state of stress, does not feel pain, there is no need to fix it, and the veterinarian of our vet clinic in Kiev can perform its work calmly.
On the basis of the results of the examination, the veterinarian-dentist will make a diagnosis and propose treatments. If necessary, the following activities may be undertaken:
- Plaque removal with ultrasonic scaler UDS-L LED
- Removal of the Toothstone.
- Clearing the space under the gum.
- Toothpolish.
- Removal of affected teeth.
- Bite correction with braces.
- Teeth length correction in guinea pigs, degas, chinchillas and rabbits.
In the future, a specialist in dentistry can prescribe antibiotic therapy, surgical intervention, prophylactic or other dental measures that are relevant in the case of your pet.
Remember that caring for the teeth of the pet and regular visits to the vet center are the key to the health of the pet’s mouth!
