Dr. Jack Easley Radiology
Radiology has become an important part of the total oral and dental equine examination. The first objective of this portion of the wet-lab is to show how every practitioner, with commonly available radiology equipment used in the field, can take and interpret good dental radiographs. The second objective is to show how dental radiology can augment the oral examination to diagnose and develop a plan for horses with various types of dental diseases and abnormalities.

Dr. Mary Delorey Occlusal Equilibration Many practitioners are becoming comfortable with the basics of occlusal equilibration. However, two common malocclusions continue to present a challenge to the equine practitioner: "wave mouth" and "diagonal incisor malocclusions." Diagnosis, evaluation, and corrective techniques will be presented and applied to both cadaver heads and live horses. Other equilibration issues may be discussed as time allows.
|
|
Dr. Michael Q. Lowder Sedation, Dental Anesthesia & Pain Management
Sedation augments a complete oral examination. In addition, anesthesia and pain management are important components of veterinary dentistry. The objectives of this wet-lab section are to demonstrate sedation for dental procedures including continuous rate infusion (CRI), dental anesthetic nerve blocks, and to discuss indications for pain management.
|
|
Dr. B.A. Rucker Incisor Shaping & Periodontal Disease Measuring incisor distance to molar contact is important for determining if molar contact duration during mastication is normal and for objective assessment for shortening normally- and abnormally-shaped incisors. Periodontal disease is a common disorder of the equine mouth; diagnosis and treatment options will be discussed.
