Rabbit Dentistry Services at TLC Animal Hospital
Comprehensive Dental Care for Rabbits
At TLC Animal Hospital, we understand that rabbits have unique dental needs. Their continuously growing teeth require specialized care and attention to prevent serious health problems. Our experienced team offers advanced rabbit dentistry services, including CT imaging, to provide accurate diagnoses and effective treatments.
Why Rabbit Dental Health Matters
Rabbits' teeth grow throughout their lives. When their teeth do not wear down properly—due to genetics, diet, or other issues—it can lead to malocclusions, sharp points, overgrowth, abscesses, and painful infections. Dental disease is one of the most common and serious problems seen in rabbits, often leading to difficulty eating, weight loss, drooling, and behavioral changes.
Advanced Diagnostics with CT Imaging
One of the challenges of treating rabbit dental disease is that much of the pathology occurs below the gum line, hidden from view. Our on-site CT scanner allows us to obtain high-resolution, 3D images of your rabbit’s skull, including tooth roots, jawbones, sinuses, and abscesses. This detailed imaging enables precise diagnosis and helps us create targeted treatment plans, reducing guesswork and improving outcomes.
