Abstract Background Ossifying fibromas are uncommon in horses and complete surgical excision with premaxillectomy, maxillectomy or mandibulectomy is recommended. Piezosurgery has been previously used in equines only in one study. Objective To report a case of ossifying fibroma treated with piezosurgery and to describe its follow‐up.

A study of the forces generated during equine cheek tooth extraction
Abstract Background Significant force is often applied when elevating equine teeth from the alveolus during extraction. No previous studies have investigated these forces. Objectives To develop a method to allow measurement of elevation forces (EF) applied during extraction, and to record forces during extraction of cheek teeth in both cadaver ...

Cheek tooth extraction in geriatric versus non‐geriatric horses
Abstract Background Age‐related dental changes are major contributors to dental disorders in older horses, and cheek tooth extractions are often required to maintain masticatory function and oral comfort. However, limited information is available on clinical and treatment characteristics in this older patient population.

Bacteremia in horses undergoing routine dental prophylaxis: Before, during, and after the procedure
Abstract Background Transient bacteremia after dental procedures is well‐documented in the literature, but the prevalence and clinical significance in horses remains largely unexplored. Objectives To assess whether routine dental prophylaxis in clinically healthy horses is associated with detection of bacteria in blood, using culture and 16S rDNA ...

Using a wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) patch adapted for 7‐day monitoring in the horse
Abstract Background Arrhythmias can cause poor performance and sudden death in horses. Long‐term (>24 h) electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring has been used to identify arrhythmias in humans and is superior to short‐term monitoring for transient arrhythmia detection. Televet is the current equine gold‐standard ECG device. The Cardea SOLO™ (CS) is a single‐

Abstract Background Campylorrhinus lateralis (‘wry nose’) is a rare congenital maxillofacial deformity of foals resulting in compromise of the airway and severe class 4 malocclusion. Various surgical techniques to correct the deformity have been described, but contemporary data on single‐stage transection and fixation, including use of a rib graft, and
