Back in April, Grayson's dentist found that he had two broken molars that were infected. So I had to go to my vet for treatment (antibiotics) and a referral to NC State Vet Hospital to get those teeth removed.<br /><br />After the teeth were removed, my vet called and texted me on a regular basis to check on Grayson. He also came out once a week to check the sockets. Ya it was expensive to have him come out every week but that was a lot cheaper then Grayson getting a systemic infection from those sockets.<br /><br />Moral of the story: don't discredit a vet for doing a good job with teeth. There's definitely value in a vet knowing your horse from top to bottom...including his mouth. I love knowing that my vet is very familiar with Grayson's teeth. There are great dentists and crappy dentists. Some vets would rather have a dentist float teeth and there are also vets who love teeth. Definitely go with your gut :)Julie Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02142733317969099441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313163701155816488.post-12118923962528193242011-06-20T18:36:43.148-05:002011-06-20T18:36:43.148-05:00100% understand. Like heck if I'm letting some...100% understand. Like heck if I'm letting someone work on my horse if my "gut" tells me no way. The way I think about it, I wouldn't go to a doctor I felt uneasy with, so I'm not going to use a vet that I don't absolutely love.Marehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16127842562111344534noreply@blogger.com
