Had the dentist round for my boys the other day. To be honest, I know I havent kept on top of their teeth. Ive just had the vet check them when they get their vaccs. But thought I should really get the dentist for a proper check up. Well all of mine needed work
the oldies teeth werent too bad at all, but the 2 younger ones (who I thought would be fine!) needed more work. 1 had really sharp edges, and my other horse apparently has very messed up teeth. They've all grown weirdly at odd angles, and his wolf teeth he thinks have been snapped off somehow probably by a dodgy dentist in the past (not when I had him). One of his canines sits at a real angle, which he believes was from a kick or something when he was younger. So my poor boy has even changed his way of eating to adapt to his teeth. Feel so terrible I didnt get this sorted earlier. My vet never said anything, so last time I ask them to check! Lesson learnt and I will be getting the dentist regularily from now on.
Feel so guilty though. Especially when 2 of mine really didnt like being rasped, they kept looking at me as if to say "why would you do this to me?!". It was awful!
