Columbia Equine Hospital provides full dental examinations and power dentistry services to evaluate and correct any dental issues in horses. A full mouth exam under sedation allows veterinarians to completely assess the horse's teeth. Power float technology performs gentle dental work more quickly than manual floats. Common dental problems addressed include overbites, fractures, exposed pulps from trauma, and cheek tooth issues like wolf teeth and cranial hooks. Regular dental care is important for a horse's comfort, performance, and health.
