One of our largest clients! We work on all sizes, from the big fellow in the picture, to minis and donkeys.
A thorough examination of the horse’s head and mouth is carried out in order to assess dental symmetry, balance and highlight any dental disease or abnormal wear.
With the use of dental instruments balancing of the mouth is achieved by filing and burring to reduce any protuberant, blocking or restricting teeth giving full lateral (sideways) excursion and rostral/caudal (forwards/backwards) movement, thus:
Relieving pain
Increasing tooth life
Enhancing performance
Improving overall balance and condition
The complete procedure will take around 40 minutes (on average). A full dental chart will be given as a record of the procedures that have taken place.
