Services

Anident is Finland’s only clinic specializing in dental treatments. Both our procedures and equipment are modern and efficient. We use the latest technology and provide state-of-the-art dental and oral care to meet your needs.

Our work consists primarily of referral patients in need of demanding dental care (root canal treatments, malocclusion corrections=”realignment”), oral/dental surgery (difficult extractions, jaw fractures, oral tumors).

Our general practitioners also provide your pet with other care and are glad to act as your primary care veterinarian.

A complete dental check-up and oral examination can only be performed when the animal is under anesthesia. Diagnosis always requires dental radiographs and when necessary we can obtain an accurate 3D CBCT image.

Out of oral diseases, periodontal disease (gum disease) is the leading cause of pets needing veterinary treatment, while tooth fractures is a close second. Active working dogs are especially prone to tooth fractures and other injuries that can cause pain and lead to a deterioration of the general health of the animal if left untreated.

Our oral surgery services help in situations where your pet is suffering from dental or jaw damage, for example periodontitis that has spread into surrounding jawbone, tooth or jaw fractures, or oral tumors.

Dental radiographs

Dental radiographs are an essential part of a full dental and oral examination.

Anident’s dental radiography machinery is super modern and efficient: the radiographs of two different patients can be simultaneously worked through at our two separate stations.

CBCT-imaging

In advanced cases we have an opportunity to utilize a new imaging style: 3D cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). CBCT gives us a three-dimensional view of the target area with minimal radiation exposure and a more accurate image than a traditional CT.

CBCT imaging is especially useful in jaw fractures and oral tumors, for example. It is also useful cases where we need an accurate image of the pathology in the mouth, such as visualizing cystic lesions caused by unerupted teeth, locations of foreign bodies, or lesions in teeth and the jaw caused by tooth root infections. CBCT imaging allows us to make a 3D printout of the area, which helps us in oral tumor removal for example.

CBCT imaging is utilized in not only our dental patients, but also to image other locations, such as ears, eyes, and limbs.

Full body radiographs

For regular, full body radiographs we use a modern digital radiography machine, which we use for thoracic imaging and official hip, knee, and spine radiographs for example.
