However, Pippin has had some serious dental issues and anesthesia allows the doc to get a much better view of what's gong on with his molars. He has fillings back there and the dentist checks to make sure they are still in tact every time he floats Pippin's teeth (they need to be done very 6 - 8 months).<br /><br />I do get on my soap box about horses having dental work performed at least every 18 months. If they don't get their teeth floated their molars can get very sharp edges that tear the horse's cheeks up, cause pain and abscesses.Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02113432418609414054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816015196790632629.post-32667889401281576592011-12-17T08:10:23.723-07:002011-12-17T08:10:23.723-07:00Open wide looks scary...I'm glad my personal d...Open wide looks scary...I'm glad my personal dentist doesn't use one of those on me!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04219479223227928561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816015196790632629.post-85628398520769001052011-12-17T07:47:42.681-07:002011-12-17T07:47:42.681-07:00Your dentist looks pretty serious and well set up....Your dentist looks pretty serious and well set up. Does he use electric tools? None of my horses have every needed to be tranquilized and our dentist does not use the electric stuff. (The Vets do, however, and they charge a fortune). There is a lobby that is trying to block all non vets from doing dental work. Such a shame, since our dentist has so much more training and experience. Hope it never happens.Lori Skooghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03458010787337492501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816015196790632629.post-52711656241717911462011-12-17T05:03:52.067-07:002011-12-17T05:03:52.067-07:00Love the captions!
