In the overall scheme of things, I am a Johnny-Come-Lately to equine dentistry. In 1993 I bought a small animal and equine practice in Meridian, Idaho. My equine clientele was somewhat sparse at first, so I could devote plenty of time to my examinations. I had floated horses’ teeth before, with the traditional long-straight and long-angled floats. Usually they had dull carbide chip blades on them because I didn’t know when they were supposed to be changed. Now that I owned my own clinic, the quality of work I produced mattered more than ever. Even without a fullmouth speculum, I could see that floating was not going. | EQUINE DENTISTRY A Practical Guide PATRICIA p i N c I EQUINE DENTISTRY A PRACTICAL GUIDE ERRATUM Equine Dentistry A Practical Guide written by Patricia Pence and published in 2002 by Lippincott Williams Wilkins includes a dosing error.
