Equine Dentistry
Horse teeth continue to grow throughout their lives, creating problem areas known as "points" and "waves." Years ago, these problems were corrected by smoothing the teeth with hand filing tools, an approach that is still practiced on horses with very minor issues.
We utilize both hand tools and motorized tools as is appropriate for the horse's dental needs. Both procedures are usually performed under sedation
Motorized dentistry is best performed at the office in our haul-in facility. Stocks and fans add efficiency, lower the stress on the horse, and lower the cost of the procedure.
