program.




The Academy of Equine Dentistry is located in Glenns Ferry, Idaho. Our main purpose is to help horses by teaching the proper procedures of equine dentistry, thereby helping equestrians obtain top performance in their equine endeavors. We have compiled this packet to explain equine dental courses and other information pertaining to the dental school. We enjoy serving you and look forward to your attendance at the Academy.

During the past 27 years our school has helped over a 1,000 men and women define the art and science of equine dentistry, giving them greater understanding of the horse's general physical needs through care and maintenance of its teeth. Equine dental equilibration and care is a specialized field based on the needs of the horse, its activities and uses and the needs of the riders, owners and trainers. The life of equine teeth can be lengthened five to ten years through early, proper continued dental care and equilibration.

Of the approximately 122,000,000 horses, mules and donkeys in the world today, many receive little or no dental maintenance. If their teeth were maintained on a regular basis, the food savings would be astronomical. Because the horse, mule and donkey can provide for our livelihood and various forms of recreation, we need to be aware of our responsibility as owners. A large number of farm and ranch accidents unfortunately do involve horses. Many of these accidents are caused by a combination of inexperienced horse handlers and horses with problem teeth that cause excruciating pain.
