It is important to have regular dental checks for your horse to maximise the potential of their teeth. The optimal length of time between dental examinsation is approximately every 8 months to stay on top of any irregularities and every 6 months for performance horses or horses under 5 years of age.

I have a very calm, patient manner with horses which enables me to treat the majority of cases unsedated. Each examination will take around an hour allowing for a thorough external and internal assessment. I provide a dental chart for each horse with a record of treatment.
