PANEL DISCUSSION DESCRIPTION
The ability to perform endodontic treatment in horses could be considered as one of the most important recent advances in equine dentistry and when properly performed, this technique allows retention of teeth which would otherwise require extraction. Join our world-renowned panel of dentistry specialists as they discuss one of the hottest topics in this field. This panel discussion will cover case selection, required instrumentation and materials and a review of a variety of techniques from relatively straightforward incisor procedures to more complex cheek tooth endodontic procedures. In their review of endodontics in horses, the specialists will also discuss what could be learned by assessing the technique in other species. There will also be discussion of potential complications which may be encountered. The panel discussion will be fully interactive, with questions and comments from participants most welcome.
