Answers to your questions

Why is the DCT cone beam a revolution in veterinary dentistry?

The dental cone beam offers high-definition 3D imaging, enabling :

Perfect visualisation of all dental roots and surrounding bone.
Faster, more accurate diagnosis, particularly of complex pathologies.
Ultra-precise surgical planning.
Significantly reduced examination time compared with traditional dental X-rays, resulting in shorter anaesthesia times.

Does my pet need to be anaesthetised for dental treatment?

Yes, dental treatment requires a general anaesthetic to guarantee the animal’s immobility and comfort. Our protocols are adapted to each individual to minimise the risks.

How can I prevent dental problems in my pet?

Brush your pet’s teeth twice a day with a suitable toothpaste.
Use food supplements designed to reduce plaque.
Plan at least annual dental check-ups for regular maintenance.

Testimonials

They’ve been to the Vétélys veterinary clinic

Cat dental extractions.
A pre-surgery visit elsewhere left me feeling completely insecure! I was very happy to have found this clinic where I felt the love of the animal as soon as I walked through the door; I was able to bring her in on the big day with confidence and without too much added stress! Everything was really perfect (welcome, taking care of the animal AND its human, clear explanations, etc.). Too far from my home to keep them as a regular vet and that’s a shame!
A big THANK YOU to this great team that I recommend with my eyes closed!

Evelyne O.

Absolutely extraordinary people work here: they really care about the animals and their keepers. They have state-of-the-art equipment, several specialists and they speak English. What I also really appreciated was that they provided us with all the information and called us when they promised. This really helps to minimise your worries. Thank you for saving our cat!

Agniesczka B.

I highly recommend the Vétélys clinic.

Maria-Isabel C.

I brought my dog here after being bitten by another dog. They took him in almost immediately and were extremely attentive when treating him. They also took care of filing the report with the SCAV against the dog that bit him. I highly recommend them.

Tips for good oral health:

Watch for signs: if your pet refuses to eat hard food, stops eating or has bad breath, consult a dental hygienist as soon as possible.
Adopt a hygiene routine: brushing is the best form of prevention.
Invest in specific foods and products: certain dental snacks help to reduce tartar, as do certain food supplements.
