In May 08, Christine passed the extremely difficult testing to become Certified by the International Association of Equine Dentistry (IAED).  She is now one of only three practioners in San Diego County and less only a handful in Southern Californa that have passed this rigorous testing process, and she passed it on her first attempt!  The IAED sets a very high standard for equine dentistry and has certified equine dentists world wide.

Knowing just a little more than the basics can make a big difference in just about anything one can do.  So we wanted to bring you more than the basics about the dentistry your horse may need. It doesn't matter where in the world you live, chance are your horse will need dentistry at some time.

Most articles in magazines are so limited in space that you really don't learn much.  We hope this information will be easy to understand and help you to determine your horses needs.

With good dental care through out a horses lifetime, a healthy horse can live into their 30's, some even into their 40's.  As medical technology cures many illnesses that shortened a horses life, horses are living longer than ever before.  For that reason you need to be sure your horses teeth will last throughout their lifetime.  

If you have any questions we may be able to help answer please don't hesitate to send an email.
