Advanced Dentistry
We are seeing horses live well into their 30s nowadays, and a major reason for that is routine dental care. With today’s advanced dental techniques and equipment, B-Line reduces procedural time and minimizes or eliminates trauma to the horse, thus making it an easier experience for all. Horses are sedated for their safety and comfort, and a full mouth speculum is used in order to examine the entire mouth.
The goal of routine dental care is to identify small problems before they become big problems, and to keep the mouth in balance and pain free, so that the horse can chew efficiently and comfortably. Exams should be done every 6 months to a year, or if your horse is displaying signs that there might be a problem orally. For the average horse, yearly teeth floating is sufficient, however some may need theirs done more often.
