Dr Barber recently attended an equine dental education seminar at the beautiful Alisol Ranch. She refined her skills including a comprehensive oral exam, dental radiographs, as well as diagnosing and treating common dental pathologies.
Routine equine dental exams, not just floats, are essential for your horses overall health. Your horse should be getting a sedated speculum exam at least once a year. If the mouth is not directly visualized, it is difficult to know what it really going on in there.
Early discovery of minor issues can help decrease serious dental complications like weight loss, oral ulcers and tooth death.
