Horsemanship Dentistry
Training school for horse dentistry rooted in horsemanship and pain-free technique
+2 more
Horsemanship Dentistry teaches equine dental work built on horsemanship rather than sedation. The approach was developed by Dr. Geoff Tucker, a Cornell-educated veterinarian who has worked on the teeth of more than 85,000 horses since 1983, and it centers on connecting with the horse as a willing partner.
Members of the Horsemanship Dentistry School learn the core elements of the method, from establishing connection and thoroughness to pain removal, and work toward certification as a Horsemanship Dentistry practitioner. The school is for horse professionals and dedicated horse owners who want to practice dentistry that respects the horse and builds trust with its owner.
