Equident equine toothbrush

I hope many of you realise the importance of maintaining healthy teeth in a horse? Equident have taken this a step further with this handmade purposefully designed brush.

Regular visits by your equine dentist are a must for all horses but for the in-between times this brush is a great tool for all conscientious horse owners. It helps dislodge packed feed stuck in the diastimas (gaps) between molars - pre molars and incisors to help stop the build up of tartar on canines.

Packed feed if left can lead to periodontal (gum) disease so it’s up to you as owners to help reduce these risks as much as possible.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Molars and Pre-Molars
With the head collar on gently introduce the brush into the corner of the mouth (between the outside of the teeth and the cheek) your horses first reaction is to chew,as they do this it enables you to push the brush further up and using backwards and forwards movements clean the outside of the teeth. Do not let your horse chew on this as it may damage it.

Incisors
Here you can use both hands one to hold either the top lip up or bottom lip down and using the other hand brush up and down until you’re satisfied all remnants are removed. Use only clean water on the brush, do not use your own toothpaste as this may be harmful to your horse. Remember patience is the key and over time this will become a rewarding and enjoyable experience for both you and your horse.
