Dental services on offer include;

 

Health Floats

A basic health float is designed to help the horse who’s mouth has already been balanced and is regularly seen by a vet or dental technician. This is achieved by the removal of enamel points and also the maintenance of the correct table angles.

Performance Floats

A performance float is similar to the Health Float but has emphasis on achieving improved balance and can include creating bit-seats and the reduction and rounding of canines if required, with inspection of incisors.

A “bit-seat” is the rounding of the first cheek teeth. This procedure is aimed at improving the comfort of the bit in the horses mouth. In order to achieve a performance float horses may be required to be sedated.

Advanced dentistry

Advanced dentistry is performed to alleviate major problems which can occur, and usually involves power driven instruments and requires sedation with veterinary supervision.

 

Routine dental maintenance may help resolve the following conditions:

Lack of condition, poor performance, quid ding, change in performance, weight loss, excessive salivation or drooling, bumps or swellings of the jaw or face, the chewing of doors or fencing, rearing, bad breath from either the mouth or nostrils, head throwing/shaking, stiffness on one rein, head tilting while eating or being ridden, choking, abnormal carriage of the tongue, bad general attitude, discharge from the eyes or nostrils, fistulous discharge from the jaw or face
