Dental Treatment with a Therapy Dog

A Relaxing and Unique Treatment Experience 

Exclusively at EuroDent!

At Euro-Dent Dental Clinic, we strive to provide our patients with the best service while maintaining a sense of calm and comfort. We are proud to be the only dental clinic in Belgium offering dental treatment with a therapy dog. Meet our poodle, Bella, who serves as a dedicated therapy dog helping patients relax during treatment.

Meet Bella – Our Therapy Dog

  • Specially trained to serve as a therapy dog: Bella has undergone professional and dedicated training to serve as a therapy dog and knows how to respond optimally to patients in various situations.
  • Full veterinary supervision: Bella is under the supervision of a certified veterinarian and receives all necessary treatments and vaccinations to ensure her health and the health of our patients.
    Hypoallergenic fur: Poodles have hypoallergenic fur, making Bella suitable even for patients with animal allergies.
  • Does not shed hair: Bella does not shed hair on the patients’ clothing, so there is no concern about unwanted hair residues.
  • Special diet: Bella receives a special diet that ensures her fur is soft and pleasant, enhancing patients’ enjoyment and comfort during treatment.

Advantages of Dental Treatment with a Therapy Dog

Calms the patient: Bella, our therapy dog, is present in the treatment room and sits on the patient, helping to reduce anxiety and provide a sense of security. The contact with Bella is calming and helps alleviate stress.

Reduces stress levels: Research shows that the presence of a therapy dog reduces stress levels among patients. Bella helps lower blood pressure and releases calming hormones like oxytocin.

Petting during treatment: Patients can pet Bella during treatment, which helps distract them from the medical procedure and enhances their sense of comfort and tranquility.
Absorbing stress: Bella absorbs the patient’s tension and stress, allowing the patient to experience a calm and stress-free treatment as much as possible.

Alleviates feelings of loneliness: Especially for children or patients who tend to feel lonely and frightened, Bella’s presence provides a sense of companionship and emotional support.

The Impact of Therapy Dogs on Mental Health

Therapy dogs are known for their ability to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and assist in psychological and medical treatments. The presence of a therapy dog, like Bella, can reduce dental treatment anxiety, help patients relax, and create a more positive treatment experience. These dogs help create a positive atmosphere, increase patients’ sense of calm and self-confidence, and reduce the need for additional medical procedures resulting from stress.
