Caps can be just as troublesome for a young horse as wolf teeth.
Caps or โdeciduous teethโ come loose as a young horses adult teeth erupt. This process can happen anywhere from 2 - 5 years of age, depending on the horse.
Loose caps that havenโt fallen out yet can cause ๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป while eating and being rode in a bit, causing a young horse to sometimes loose weight or develop bad habits under saddle.
Some times as caps fall out they leave ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ด๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ of tooth that stay in the space where the cap fell out. This can also cause pain, discomfort, and in extreme causes can cause infection as the adult tooth tryโs to come through and pushes the fragment into the gums of the horse.
Taking care of our horses is always our number 1 priority so ๐๐ผ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ผ๐๐ผ๐ and book them in for a checkup today!
