Exploring Equine Dentistry
Grace, a second-year veterinary student, has found a passion for equine dentistry through her involvement with the Equine Practitioner club.
During an immersive three-day workshop, Grace learned about the tools and technique needed to float horses’ teeth. Horses can’t naturally file down their teeth, so floating, a specialized dental procedure, helps smooth down sharp and uneven edges.
“This training didn’t just fill my mind with information; it ignited a passion for helping horses in my community,” Grace said.
Following the training, Grace has partnered with a local stable to help float horses’ teeth and put these skills into action during an externship!
