Some Indications of Dental Problems
|
WHAT is Equine
Dentistry? It is the
care of healthy teeth, as
well as the treatment of
unhealthy teeth. It
involves the use of floats
- either mechanical or
power rasps to file down
the teeth. Power
equipment offers
significant advantages
over hand floats. Among
these are: shorter
duration of procedure,
more precise floating,
less trauma to soft
tissues, less fatigue of
the veterinarian.

WHEN should a horse be
checked? A horse should be
checked by the time they are
two, earlier if they are getting
ready to be worked. Wolf
Teeth should be removed prior
to training. Caps (baby teeth)
may also need to be removed.
Dental problems affect the way
the horse takes a bit, and may
create bad habits that are
difficult to correct later.
Adult horses should have their
teeth checked every 6 to 12
months.
