Equine Dental Care

Why Equine Dental Care Matters

Just like humans, horses need regular dental care to maintain their health and performance. Dental issues can lead to discomfort, poor nutrition, and behavioural problems. Our equine dental services are designed to keep your horse’s teeth in top condition, contributing to a long and healthy life.

Our Comprehensive Dental Services

At Vet’s North, we offer a full range of equine dental services, including:

• Routine dental check-ups.
• Teeth floating and balancing.
• Treatment of dental diseases and abnormalities.
• Preventive care and maintenance.

Sedation

• Using sedation is very important to consider for many reasons. Sedation not only reduces stress to your horse, but it enables a more thorough examination, in particular for the back teeth. This ensures the examination and treatment can be thorough, and improves the safety for both the horse, the handler and the dentist.
• With sedation we can use both hand float tools as well as power tools ensuring you get a complete and thorough job done.
• We can also collaborate with your own regular equine dentist should you prefer. We can provide qualified professionals and purpose-built facilities to administer the sedation, while working alongside your dentist, ensuring the procedure runs as smoothly as possible.

Benefits of Regular Dental Care

• Improved nutrition and digestion.
• Enhanced comfort and performance.
