Advanced: Equine Dentistry w/ Dr. Molly Rice

Diastemata, fractured cheek teeth, and EOTRH require daily clinical decisions about what to treat in the field, what to extract, and when to refer for surgical extraction. This 2-hour advanced course delivers a decision framework for the equine dental conditions that most affect patient welfare, plus oral extraction techniques general practitioners can confidently perform in their own practice. Taught by Dr. Molly Rice, DVM, DAVDC-Eq, a board-certified equine dental specialist.

Endodontic and Periodontal Disease — Diagnosis and Management

A deeper dive into the common oral pathology you'll chart on every dental float that's actually done properly. Endodontic disease (apical infection, pulpitis, pulp exposure) and the imaging findings that define the treatment crossroad. Periodontal disease including diastemata, periodontal pocketing, secondary cemental caries, and infundibular caries. Correlating oral exam with radiographic and (when available) CT findings to build treatment plans that actually resolve the disease instead of managing around it.

  • Differentiate endodontic disease presentations and select appropriate next steps
  • Recognize periodontal disease driven by diastemata and plan treatment accordingly
  • Correlate oral exam findings with radiographic imaging into a defensible treatment plan
  • Identify the cases where general-practice management is appropriate vs. specialist referral

1:30 PM· 1.0 Hour

Incisor and Canine Disease in the Equine Patient

Incisor disease with a focus on EOTRH: clinical staging, radiographic grading, extraction decision-making, and the standing-sedation extraction workflow Rice uses at Midwest Veterinary Dental Services. Fractured and malaligned incisors. Canine tooth disease: retained deciduous, malpositioned permanent, and the extraction technique that respects the root anatomy. Wolf tooth extraction: when removal matters for bitting comfort and when it doesn't. Throughout, the AVDC standards of care and the honest referral line.

  • Stage and grade EOTRH clinically and radiographically
  • Execute standing incisor extraction with appropriate regional blocks in appropriate cases
  • Select canine and wolf tooth extraction cases suitable for general practice
  • Identify clear referral triggers for surgical dental procedures

Practical Takeaways for Your Practice

Endodontic Disease Decisions

Apical infection vs. pulpitis vs. pulp exposure, the imaging signs that confirm, and the treatment crossroads. Endodontic treatment, vital pulp therapy where indicated, extraction, or referral. When conservative management is responsible and when delay causes real harm.

Periodontal Disease and Diastemata

Diastemata, the spaces between cheek teeth that trap feed and drive severe periodontal disease, are one of the most under-treated conditions in equine dentistry. Rice walks through recognition on oral exam, confirmation with imaging, dietary management, mechanical cleaning, and the referral threshold for diastema widening with a burr.

EOTRH and the Incisor Decisions

Equine odontoclastic tooth resorption and hypercementosis. Clinical staging, radiographic grading, and the extraction decision that changes a chronic pain horse back into a comfortable one. Rice's approach to full or partial incisor extraction under standing sedation with appropriate regional blocks and the recovery that follows.

Canines, Wolf Teeth, and What You Can Extract Standing

Retained deciduous canines and malpositioned permanent canines. Wolf tooth extraction technique, bitting implications, and when removal changes performance comfort vs. when it's unnecessary. The honest line between a standing extraction you should do and one you should refer.

Course Abstract

Live Online Interactive Webinar • Case-Based • Sponsor-Free

The hard cases in equine dentistry aren't about how hard you float. They're the judgment calls. Extract now or monitor, standing or referred, address the diastema with dietary change or widen it, wait out the retained deciduous or pull it this visit.

Dr. Rice takes participants from recognition into decision-making on the pathology that drives most equine dental referrals. Part one is endodontic and periodontal disease: apical infection, pulpitis, deep pulpar exposure, diastemata and food packing, periodontal pocketing, correlating oral exam and imaging into treatment plans. Part two is the incisor and canine arcades: EOTRH (the most common destructive disease of the geriatric incisor arcade and the single most consequential diagnosis in older-horse dentistry), fractures, malocclusions, retained deciduous and malpositioned canines, and wolf tooth decisions. Extraction technique is covered at the depth the AVDC standards of care demand: standing sedation, nerve block placement, instrument selection, and the cases where "refer" is the honest answer.
