Equine dental care is an essential component of your equine companion's routine healthcare. Poor dental health can lead to severe issues that can consequently negatively affect your horse's health beyond just their mouth, teeth, and gums.
This graphic shows some common signs that your animal needs to be seen for dental care. Please note that this is not an exhaustive list of signs. However, if your equine does display any of these signs, it's a good idea to call your veterinarian out to do a full dental exam in order to discern if dental work or treatment is needed.
