Last year the dentist suspected that the lump in my horses lower jaw was a bone spur. I had taken the horse out of work, shoes off etc. until I could muster dentist, back person etc. all within the same week.
The dentist recommended a vet practice but they were talking about general anaesthetic and getting his sarcoids at the same time and I thought nooooooo!
Anyway a lady on my yard took her horse to Frynwy bout a month ago to have an enormous diseased molar removed with just a local. I was so impressed that I booked him in and took him up yesterday.
After xrays the vet decided to get it out and less time than it takes a cup of coffee to cool the horse was coming round in a spare stable.
I have lost the capacity to post photographs but the thing is minute a tiny tooth that was inside the gum so it must have been like having a thorn stuck there all the time.
He was a lot happier when I turned him out this morning.
