A busy day of on-site infundibular caries restorations using the portable endodontic unit—very satisfying work!

20/11/2025

Had a great day at Loch Leven Equine Practice last week restoring lots of teeth affected by infundibular caries. Always rewarding work — and such a lovely practice to spend time in! 🐴🦷

🦷We have recently been very lucky to welcome visiting veterinary surgeon Alice Hughes to help with the advanced dental case load. Jenny and Alice treated four different horses in the clinic with infundibular caries lesions in various teeth.

It’s fantastic having great relations with local veterinary surgeons with various different specialties, so that we can all work together for the greater good of the horses in our community, and we look forward to welcoming Alice back again soon.💙

🎉 Alice Hughes Veterinary Equine Dental Care Turns 3! 🎉

Today marks three years in business, and I couldn’t be more grateful for all the wonderful clients, horses, and colleagues who’ve supported me along the way. 💙

This past year has brought lots of exciting developments — from investing in an oroscope to look even more closely inside horses’ mouths 👀🐴, to adding new tooth extraction tools to the kit, taking on more referral work, and attending some fantastic conferences to keep learning and improving the care I can offer.

It hasn’t all been plain sailing — breaking my ankle was definitely a low point! 🦶😅 But I was truly overwhelmed by the kindness and support from colleagues, friends, and clients who showed such patience and understanding while I recovered.

Here’s to another year of working with lovely clients and their wonderful horses — I can’t wait to see what the next chapter brings! 🐎💫

Thankfully bits have evolved over the last few hundred years… muzzles seem to have regressed though! 😱😍

Feeling lucky to be on holiday in South Africa 🇿🇦

Spotted an old elephant skull on a reserve drive today! 🐘

Like horses, elephants eat a plant-based diet — but theirs includes tougher stuff like bark and branches 🪾

Instead of long-wearing teeth like horses, elephants grow six sets of molars in their lifetime, each one bigger and more ridged, pushing forward from the back as they go!
