The first horse owner's equine dentistry handbook Do you know about the hidden pain in your horse's mouth? Discover how you can release your horse's full potential by solving his tooth problems! This is a true story… One fine spring morning Alannah found her Quarterhorse, Josh, with a swelling on the side of his jaw. She assumed that he had been kicked by one of the other horses. She got antibiotics from the vet, but the swelling got larger. Alannah's good friend Shannon suggested she should have Josh examined by an equine dentist. Alannah contacted me and made an appointment . When I examined her gelding the next morning I found what the trouble was. It lay in the very back of his mouth. Josh's lower back molar, on the off side, had come in crooked and didn't line up properly with the upper molar. As a result this tooth had continued to erupt, over the years, past the upper molar. Now it was pushing right up into the roof of his mouth! The soft tissue was sore and inflamed. The infection was spreading through his whole system. I had to cut nearly an inch off of this molar to get it back down to the level of the others. Then I cleaned up the rest of his teeth and balanced his mouth. Today Josh is doing fine and has his teeth maintained regularly. What was the mistake made here? Alannah assumed, because Josh was in good shape, that he didn't need any dental work. Have you ever heard comments like this? My horse doesn't need his teeth checked yet - he's still young. That horse is fat - there's nothing wrong with her teeth. No one checks wild horse's teeth and they do fine. You probably have. This kind of unawareness leads to stories like Alannah's that reveal a horse who has been dealing with serious trouble in his mouth for years. There's a good chance the reason you are reading this letter right now is because you wanted to find an answer to a question about your horse's mouth. Or maybe you have heard something about horse tooth care that has you wondering. Here are a few of the questions I often hear… My horse's teeth are falling out - what's happening? How do I figure out how old my horse is? How many teeth does a horse have? How often do my horse's teeth need floating? My horse constantly plays with his bit and pushes his head forward - is this tooth related? My young horse is suddenly reacting badly to the bit - can his teeth be hurting somehow? Equine dental abnormalities are among the top 5 most common medical problems encountered by equine veterinarians. Based on a study by Cornell University and Rutgers. The best person to recognize when your horse needs help with his teeth is you, but do you know what to watch for? Are you aware of what sort of difficulties your horse may be dealing with? A veterinarian and an equine dentist in the UK recently teamed up to do a survey of horse's mouths. They examined 100 horses of various ages. Here are some of their findings… All 100 of the horses had sharp points on their molars. 33 had restricted jaw movement. 37 had various forms of sharp hooks on their molars. 10 had one or more wolf teeth. 5 had loose teeth. 3 were missing molars That's quite a list! Notice the very first finding.All 100 horses had sharp points and edges on their molars. Every time these horses went to eat they had to deal with those sharp points. Let's try to put this into a human context. This would be something like you trying to eat an apple with thumbtacks in your mouth. Chew carefully!! Are you interested in being able to recognize when your horse needs help? It is now possible for you to quickly and easily become tooth savvy.
