Providing Excellence in Equine Dental Education Through Experiential Learning
The primary goal of each symposium is to give the participant the knowledge necessary to recognize specific dental diseases, followed by in-depth hands on training to treat these diseases. These programs have been designed as an intensive combination of classroom lectures complimented by closely instructed wet labs taught by world renowned equine dental experts. The labs are an invaluable tool to gain hands-on experience using the most up to date state of the art equipment, instruments and materials.
All programs include one evening with “keynote” speaker, and one evening of case presentations.
