Acteon Veterinary, the veterinary division of the renowned French MedTech Acteon Group, combines cutting-edge technologies with exceptional customer care to support veterinarians in providing top-quality equipment for dental care.
Dental health is a critical aspect of veterinary care, with studies showing that 80% of dogs and 70% of cats develop dental disease by the age of 3 (Verstraete, 1998). Approximately 75% of dogs and cats suffer from periodontal disease (Bell A.F., 1965; Verhaert, 2000), and 48% of dogs have periodontitis (Kyllar et al., 2005). These statistics highlight the importance of advanced dental care in veterinary practices.
Acteon Veterinary, a leading actor in the veterinary industry, is recognized for its innovative technologies and engagement in enhancing veterinary practices, especially in dental care. As a French company with a worldwide presence, Acteon leverages decades of expertise to deliver high-tech solutions that prioritize patients’ well-being and improve the daily work of veterinary professionals.
“Healthcare is first and foremost about quality of life;” this is the Acteon vision that drives the company to create a more human-centered healthcare industry that promotes proactive lifelong care.

“Acteon Veterinary offers a wide range of high-tech products for treating the most complex cases in veterinary dentistry, stomatology and maxillofacial surgeries.

Mihai Guzu, DMV, Dipl.EVDC, Head of the Dentistry & Oromaxillofacial Surgery Department at Centre Hospitalier Vétérinaire Fregis.
The Acteon ranges illustrate veterinary dental excellence. Studies have found that 27.8% of dogs and 41.7% of cats with apparently healthy teeth have some form of dental disease when x-rayed, underscoring the value of advanced imaging. The X-Mind Unity combined with Sopix Plug-In is the perfect example of how Acteon uses technology to benefit both veterinarians and their patients. This state-of-the-art X-ray system is designed to produce sharp, high-contrast images while minimizing radiation exposure, thanks to the patented ACE® (Automatic Exposure Control) technology. This ensures that animals receive the lowest possible dose of X-rays, preserving their health.
As a leader in the ultrasonics technology field thanks to a history of know-how, Acteon has developed the Piezotome Cube to provide precise bone surgery and exceptional soft tissue preservation. This advanced device adapts its power intuitively, ensuring optimal performance and safety in every procedure. With the Piezotome Cube, atraumatic extractions and bone surgery are made easier and more predictable.
