In this episode of the EquiScience podcast, I sit down with Dr. Audrey Langlois to explore the fascinating world of equine dentistry. She shares her journey into the field, from her education to hands-on experiences, and explains why dental care is essential for a horse’s overall health.
We dive into key topics like the anatomy of horse teeth, common dental issues, and how proper mouth movement impacts a horse’s mobility. Dr. Langlois walks us through the dental exam process, highlighting what owners should look for, the role of veterinarians, and what questions to ask to ensure the best care for their horses.
We also discuss the techniques used in equine dentistry, including the importance of sedation, the use of speculums for safe and effective treatment, and the differences between manual and electric floating. Plus, we explore the critical role of nutrition in maintaining strong, healthy teeth.
This episode is packed with expert insights and practical advice—so whether you're a horse owner, trainer, or just a fellow horse nerd, you won’t want to miss it!
