TheHorseStudio.com copyrighted review: No horse owner should be without this guide. As a rider and horse owner most of us know that good teeth and a pain free mouth are an absolute must for our horses to protect both their health and to ensure their best performance for any discipline. This book brings you a clear understanding of the many facets of care of the horse's teeth and mouth. Some signs of teeth issues are apparent, such as quidding grain or not accepting a bit contact properly on one side of the mouth, but others may not be so clear cut. Does your horse have a wave mouth? What does this mean? How often should you have your horse's teeth floated? Which types of dental equipment should you request? What should you watch for during a dental exam of your horse? Answers abound in this comprehensive text.

With over 300 color photos and illustrations, Belgian vet, Dr. Chris Hannes from the famed Ghent University, brings you front and center in understanding all aspects of the horse's teeth. Easy to assimilate information that will answer questions of performance and appearance you may never have correlated with teeth issues throughout. Some good advice on which types of mouths or 'bite' issues you may wish to avoid when purchasing in a breeding mare or stallion, plus special features for miniatures and older equines, how to determine your horse's age and correct bit fitting. While teeth left uncared for are an almost certain precursor to colic, weight loss and bad behavior under saddle, there are many details presented here that I learned reading this book despite over 40 years experience working with horses. Highly recommended read.
