Advanced dental surgery

When the dental issues go beyond routine floating and minor wave and hook correction we can evaluate your horse for more advanced dental disease. Almost all of the dental procedures we perform are done standing. Examples of surgical treatments we have performed include:

  • Valve Diastema (feed packing between teeth) treatment        
  • Multiple Incisor and canine extraction
  • Oral premolar and molar extractions
  • Premolar and molar extractions via buccotomy
  • Simple fractures wiring or the mandible or maxilla involving the incisors

Please call for a consultation of you have a horse in need of more advanced dentistry.
