My horse was at the dentist today, just some general rasping and she was as good as gold. Just went out to check her after giving her dinner about 6ish and its not touched neither is her hayledge. Never had this problem with her or my others after being at the dentist. Anyone had this before or should i be worried??
 
My dentist warns me every time that this may happen. Mine always fine apart from 1 who can't seem to eat for about 12 hours after. Something to do with the jaw feeling different once teeth have been done. I'm sure she will be fine just keep an eye on her and see how she is tomorrow.
 
mine always struggle for a few hours,sometimes more than 12 until theyre fine eating.in the past ive rung the dentist in a panic if the horse was done in the evening and still not happy eating by the morning but they recover,think it feels strange
