METRIDENT – EQTo Support Normal Equine Periodontal Health
Up to 75% of horses over 15 years suffer from periodontal disease.
Early detection and proactive care are vital — left untreated, periodontal disease leads to:
Discomfort
Reduced feed efficiency & weight loss
Behavioural changes
Tooth loss in advanced stages
Diastemata (gaps between teeth) are a major cause, trapping food, encouraging bacterial growth, and driving chronic oral discomfort.
