Dentists has been

Go on guess the news?

Atty's back teeth were sharp but perfectly straigh so had the edges taken off and he should be much more comfy.

His front teeth were rasped to make the grinding surfaces meet nicely and dentist agrees that they should not cause him any problems as long as we are regular with the rasping.


But go on guess what else they both said (our dentist is retiring so training up a new chap for the last year or so and they both came out this morning)

By the cap still slightly visable on his middle front incisors and by how soft his teeth are he is 6 defintily not yet 7!

Have to go over his paper work tonight, know his passport says YOB 1999 but his passport has no dates in it older than May this year.

I may have a younger horse than I expected!

Glad his teeth were ok and have been sorted out nicely (still reeling from the state of my boys on Tues!), but that's a surprise about the age, but not really bad news I guess!

Hi, your passport could be right and he could be 7. If your dentist has trained in England then he may not do work on incisor teeth, if his incisors have not been worked on before then he will appear to be younger than he really is.

his passport says he's 8.

His teeth have never been worked on before ever (apart from his op 3 weeks ago but that wasn't on his lower incisors)dentist was aware of this.

But yes he could be 8 but he could be younger. It was apparently the softness of his teeth that also made the dentist think he is younger than 8, unless a spanish diet makes their teeth softer for longer?
