When was your horse / pony / donkeys last dental? Regular dental appointments stop sharp painful overgrowths like these forming.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎈to my super groom .parksequestrian who does the most fabulous job looking after the horses at Highstanding Stables. Abi makes it possible for me to be completely focused on Veterinary knowing the horses at Highstanding Stables are in such careful and capable hands. I’m so very lucky to have Abi and my other groom Lottie looking after Highstanding while I work. The horses can be stubborn, sharp or strong, the weather can be rain, snow or hail, and they never complain 🫶

D E N T A L S & Y O U N G S T E R S

BIRTH TO 18MONTHS
Dental check to ensure correct alignment and because baby teeth can get sharp points too! It is great practice to include a dental check on microchipping & vaccinating.

18MONTHS TO FOUR YEARS
Dental checks become ESSENTIAL as baby caps are lost and adult teeth erupt. Exams during this age range will ensure no issues are arising that could permanently impact the adult mouth. As the mouth changes uneven wear is invertible and sharp overgrowths are very common. Before bitting is introduced we must first check the horse has no sharp overgrowths, areas of soreness and assess the status of the wolf teeth.

FOUR TO SIX YEARS
Dental checks every 6 months to ensure correct transition into an adult mouth.

AFTER SIX YEARS
Dental checks every 9-12months in healthy mouths. Some horses will require 4-6 monthly dentals due to individual variation, this might be for a period of their adult life or all their adult life.

A B O U T I S A B E L L A

Much to my non-horsey families despair growing up I spent every minute I could at the yard, just as I do today. When I was sixteen I left school to be a riding groom in pursuit of becoming a professional showjumper. I quickly missed studying and realised I wasn’t cut out for professional riding. My commitment to horses, working with people and science mindset made Veterinary a far more suited career. During my training I continued to ride and work within the industry.

Today I run a Veterinary focused livery set-up called Highstanding Stables, continue to compete BS most weeks and have an independent ambulatory veterinary practice - Isabella Equine Vet.

I believe my greatest attribute as an Equine Vet is knowing both sides of the coin, I am as much a horse owner and rider as I am a vet. I understand firsthand how important horses become and how much of ourselves we put into them.

On a practical note, my background has given me a huge amount of experience handling, working with and problem solving tricker equines - this teamed with the continuity of being a single vet set-up, provides owners an experienced and personalised level of service that has sadly been lost in the corporate era.

I am not a jack of all trades, I am a master of one - Equine Dentistry. While I very much still use my complete Veterinary knowledge when looking at each horse I see, my primary service is Dentistry. A service within Veterinary we provide entirely for the benefit of the animal. My mission is to see every horse, pony and donkey free from any dental pain - something that is nearly always silently suffered. When I think about what horses have bought and continue to give to my life, I feel overwhelmed with gratitude, for me, Isabella Equine Vet is a way of giving back to the animal that provides us so much.

Isabella is an Equine Vet dedicated to raising the standards of Routine Dental Care and making it assessable to all equines.

While routine dentals are offered at £70 per equine (including sedation) appointments go beyond routine rasping, as a vet Isabella is qualified to:

👉 administer sedation to perform a detailed and meaningful dental exam using mirrors and probes
👉administer sedation to the effect needed to perform rasping that is accurate, precise and complete (not just the areas tolerated in an unsedated horse!)
👉 diagnose and treat dental disease (something a horse dentist is not permitted to do)
👉 remove a tooth when needed (something an equine dentist can only do with direct and continuous veterinary supervision)
👉 dispense medication such as pain relief and antibiotics when needed
👉 administer vaccines to provide tetanus (and flu) cover
👉 annually to biannually oversee the horses overall health and discuss wider concerns

Isabella Equine Vet is a fully qualified Equine Vet specialising in Equine Dentristy.

What weekends are for 🖤

No “duvet days” at Highstanding Stables, the horses loved having some hours to graze, move and do horse things. I would have opted for the duvet day myself given the choice, but alas, I wasn’t 🥲
