How Often Should My Horse’s Teeth Be Checked?
We recommend a dental examination every six to twelve months to keep your horse’s teeth in good condition and prevent potential problems. If we identify any issues that require more frequent monitoring or treatment, we’ll discuss a tailored care plan with you during the visit.

Will My Horse Need Sedation for Dental Work?
In some cases, sedation may be required to safely and comfortably carry out dental treatment. It helps to reduce anxiety, relax the jaw muscles, and minimise any discomfort during the procedure.
"Wouldn't trust anyone else with my horses. This practice go above and beyond."

"Gordon went out of his way to help me and my horse after he was going to be pts. He found the problem and saved his life. He is now back out competing! He was super friendly, good with the horse and explained everything."
