"Know the dentist, bought the book" according to Randolph F. Walls. We know the main contributor and use his services for our 500 horses. Each horse owner should know how to remedy simple problems and when to call the dentist. Several of our horses were pronounced "dying, no matter what you do" by the University Large Animal Clinic, but attention to their teeth saved each of them. Solely on the strength of the contributor we strongly recommend this manual to all horse owners.. Excellent practical reference This book gives a great practical foundation for horse floating in a vet practice. The illustrations provide a very thorough guide to various pathologic dental conditions and their remedies. Equipment is also discussed in detail. If you can only afford one book on equine dentistry, I would recommend this one. Best on the "How-To's".. Easy information for new Vet Tech! Memum Purchased for my granddaughter who is a Vet Tech! She was thrilled with it and checks it frequently! Nice gift! Great looking book.
