Equine Dentistry
Routine Dental Examinations
Equine dentistry has evolved rapidly from just rasping teeth and our team of experienced equine vets have all undertaken further training to ensure that we are providing a thorough and detailed examination as well as the necessary teeth rasping.
Our routine dental examination includes:
1. Thorough assessment of all teeth and oral soft tissue with the aid of dental mirrors and picks
2. Rasping - careful reduction of sharp points and balancing of arcades
3. Identification of abnormalities - for example cavities, fractured teeth and abnormal spaces between teeth

We advise every horse should have a dental examination every 6 -12 months. Many minor problems can be corrected immediately, or we may advise corrective or advanced treatments to prevent more serious problems developing.
