  • This is what I want to do for a living!!!! love itttttt

  • lazy mans way to do teeth. no one will ever put a power tool iin my horses mouths.

  • my horse had his teeth done yesterday.....he won't speak to me ever again (like he did last time XD ). he didnt really like it much...but it has to be done. =)

  • @daisydoes69: About the geometrics of chewing. It's too complex to discuss here with 500 signs. Nowadays, the incisors are not used enough (stable fodder), so they will grow too long. To feel the same, take a teaspoon between your incisors. The horse will bite harder to get the molars in occlusion. The upper and lower jaws bend as a consquence, yes, and the mandible moves forward, so ramps may develop on the first molars and hooks on the last molars. That's what we find on-site. Search pequinox.

  • @daisydoesit: We did draw some comparisons with various tools with and without watercooling taken by a camera of the Thermographic Institut Berlin. Finaly we decided that in future all horse dentists of Pequinox Equine Dentistry shall use water cooling. It's normal physics: The finer the granulation, the higher the speed, the higher the pressure, the longer the time the tools take effect on the teeth, the more heat is produced on the surface. It may not exceed 42° Celsius inside the teeth.

  • Great Video, thanks for posting. I'm studying equine dentristry which is fascinating!

  • are you KIDDING ME? tell your guy to get involved with Pneumatic floats, twice as safe and ten times better job, id never let someone use that in my horses mouth, no wonder so many horse owners are afraid-- NEVER would i let him do my horse, 

  • i am a horseback rider. i know that you shouldn't pull a horses tongue like that. they can spook. and the loud noises of cleaning its teeth scare it. and its not fair that the dentist gets earplugs and the horse doesn't. the horse shouldn't have to hear that loud noise because it can get scared. if i were the horse i would try to run away. and i wouldn't want someone rubbing a metal thing against my teeth.

  • @ZoeTheEntertainer How long have you worked as an equine dentist? Don't speak of things which you know nothing about. Humans get earplugs to prevent hearing damage through constant exposure to loud equipment, not because they're afraid of the equipment they're using. A horse's ears are able to tolerate a much higher decibel level without acquiring any hearing damage...they're also sedated during the procedure.

  • @randompanda89 I wasn't saying I knew a lot about equine dentistry. I only know A FEW things, so please don't tell me not to speak of things I know nothing about. I was just saying it as if I was a horse. And yes, I know that the horse is sedated because I learned it at riding camp. And I am NOT an equine dentist! I'm not even in college yet so that will teach you to be sarcastic. So, bye!

  • how much does this cost??????? to have this done??

  • @ECcorvette85 About $90.00-$100.00, but it varies depending on the vet, good news is it only needs to get done once a year, whereas regular floating takes maybe twice a year!! :)

  • All the noise must be distracting ??

    Looks like alot of trouble when just the points need to be floated off.

    You don't need all that apparatus.

    Smooth teeth can't grind dry matter worth a hoot. Bit seats are not nessessary.

    The bit should not make contact with teeth at all. jmo.

  • Would you be so kind to post a video showing how to place the mouth gag on the horse? Thank you very much. Will greatly appreciate it...

  • what i can tell you that the number one horse dentist in mexico and united states is and will be RUDY MAGANA and the people love him

  • in order to chew with your back teeth you would have to use a lot of pressure to try to get your teeth into occlusion. this would put considerable force on your front teeth/jaw

    this is exactly why horses end up with huge gaps in their cheek teeth and with their front teeth gradually moving forward out of their mouths.

    being a human dentist, can you tell me at what temperature the starts to be damaged when cooling isn't used?

  • who's the arsehole.......... coilerhead?

    by shortening the cheek teeth but not shortening the front teeth does change the bite.

    imagine if your dentist ground your back teeth down without water cooling and left or lengthened your front teeth. how would it feel for you to chew something much smaller than the gap in your back teeth.

  • Using this StumpMonster (Power Tool) is a very good example of incompetent treatment! He is not able to fix the last molars in the rear nor to handle the long bar on the front molars in a safe way. The unsharp disc produces heat, that kills teeth. He doesn´t fix the incisors. So the molars will not come in occlusion. Put a stop to his game!

  • As someone in the dental field, (humans not horses) everyone knows that in small increments, like he is doing here, you will not kill or damage teeth from over heating. Furthermore, filing down cusps a milimeter or two on a large animal is not going to change the bite dramatically. You will also note at the end he used the manual tool. So don't be an asshole!

  • @pequinox While i wouldn't use this tool do you actually know how much heat is produced and over how much time? and you also don't seem to know that when the incisors are in occlusion the molars shouldn't be until the mandible moves forward then the molars come into occlusion and the incisors out of occlusion

  • My horse just got his done today and it freaked the hell out of me! iv never seen it done and he was sooooo sedated, that when he was done he nearly fell over. poor baby was wobbling around the field for a while..

  • Nice!

  • Thanks for this great video. It is a great learning tool for my studing.

  • My four year old got her first float today. She was so good, very sedated though.

  • i wonder how humans would tolerate having a huge grinder in their mouth and the heat that must be generated in the teeth by such a disgusting tool!!!!

  • Put it this way: get your teeth warmed up and ground down while sedated into bliss, or have the edges of your teeth cut up the insides of your cheek and your tongue.

    You pick.

  • so thats how they do it!

  • Good video! Nice to see a vet that's into proper dentistry. I presume the horse was sedated, but he mentioned how well the horse tolerated it, which he would do if he was doped! I'm an equine dentist in the uk and do most of my work unsedated and it's amazing and surprising how well the horses tolerate the Le Clair tool unsedated! Dan

  • takes more than just powertools to do a good job.ya their nice in the RIGHT HANDS!!!!! Im a certified dentist and most of the time people dont know how to use them properly. use someone that does it full time. nice video

  • This was awsome. Ours is having their teeth done this week! Thanks
