What To Expect On Dental Day
How We Operate:
We currently provide equine dental services using a custom-built trailer equipped with everything needed to offer a completely mobile service.
​
The trailer features two stocks that slide out and sit on the exterior, facing inward. The first stock extends from the rear, while the second extends from the right side. The use of these stocks provides an optimal working position for both the horse and the dentist; it keeps the horse's head in a comfortable position. The horse remains standing on firm ground and does not need to load into the trailer. Both and the back gate and side gate of the stock opens up allowing for easy loading, even for horse that have loading issues.
How Our Appointments Go:
Upon arrival, the typical setup time is approximately 10 mins. After setup is complete, we will be ready for the first horse. Usually, we start the second horse 15-20mins after the first horse starts. Dr. Felix sedates and starts every horse. He will do the main balancing work in the mouth which is the majority of the work. While Joe performs the finishing work, Dr. Felix will examines the next horse. When Joe is done, Dr. Felix will do one last check before the horse is finished.
Info We Need On Dental Day:
We will need owners name, phone number, and email. We will also need the horse's name, age, bread, and any medical concerns (Note: we prefer not to work on pregnant mares for the safety of the fetus).
We also ask for payment at time of service. Payment methods we except: Check, Cash, Venmo, and Card (Note: Card payments have a 3% processing fee).
