The Academy of Equine Dentistry is a unique learning institution run by practitioners. Men and women working in the field of equine dental maintenance full time take the time to come back and help others continue their own education. Those who participate in the school help educate others by sharing knowledge and experiences learned in the field of equine dentistry.

The Academy’s basic course covers the history of equine dentistry, basic function of teeth and their relationship to the body, numbering systems, aging techniques, anatomy of the horse’s head and mouth and correct dental examination procedures. Proper use of instruments and 50 hours of routine dental maintenance procedures are attempted on skulls and live horses. Courses also include a discussion on the business aspects of equine dental maintenance, including an introduction to the school’s continuing education and student advancement program leading to three levels of educational achievement and certification.

The Academy of Equine Dentistry offers courses in February, May, August, and November. Equine Dental and Oral Anatomy Courses offered by the Academy are PG-1 First Level (100 hour) dentistry courses, PG-2 Second Level (100 hour) intermediate dentistry courses, A-150 (24 hour) Equine Head and Neck Anatomy course, PG-3 Third Level (100 hour) advanced dentistry courses, and PG-4 fourth level (100 hour) advanced dentistry courses. Successes of previous course participants are living testimonials to our quality and caliber of instruction. Most course participants hear about our program from previous students, recent research programs, national and international articles, the internet, and school publications and books.

An Advanced Course is offered at the Academy of Equine Dentistry four times a year to provide continuing education for certified Dentists and Veterinarians with advanced knowledge in Equine Dentistry. This course consists of five days of wet lab and lectures concerning the most recent advancements in our field presented by a staff of advanced dentists and veterinarians. Included in our program are digital radiology, video endoscopy, endodontics, nerve blocks, oral extractions, orthodontics, and advanced surgical procedures. The contents of our program vary with each class to meet the changing needs of our dentists working in practice. Continuing education is an important part of the Academy and we encourage dental practitioners to participate in this highly attended program.
