Dr Mattea Davidson is an Equine Veterinarian and passionate about Dentistry. Being a professional rider herself, Mattea understands the importance of having your horse's teeth in good order. Dental issues such as hooks and sharp points can cause pain to your horse, which may result in health issues and poor performance.

The most voted for question was -

"How can you tell if your horse is more sensitive to tongue or bar pressure?".
