Attendees where treated to three short talks given by members of our First Opinion Road Vet Team (Pete Gallon, Tom McGinley and Tim Adams),who are all highly experienced in equine dentistry.
The talks explained the rules and regulations surrounding who is able to do what to our horses teeth; the structure and composition of horses teeth and common issues that might occur in your horse’s mouth.
Following the talks the group assembled in our NEW Dentistry Clinic where Pete Gallon performed a dental examination using an oroscope, which is a small camera that gives a magnified and accurate picture of the inside of the mouth and which allowed attendees to see for themselves on a TV screen images of the horse’s mouth and witness some of the things that had been discussed earlier.
The group was then split into three, for practical sessions observing dental treatment on real cases.
We hope to repeat the evening in due course. If you would like your name added to the list, please email tasha.wilson@theleh.co.uk, or call our reception team on 01428 723594
