Dental disease is a common but often under-recognised condition in horses, possibly due to an inability to recognise clinical signs of oral discomfort. Some dental disorders are reportedly more painful than others, but there is no curre... Read More about Application of the horse grimace scale in horses with dental disease: Preliminary findings.
