Horse Tooth Rasp Low Offset is a hand rasp for use in equine dentistry. The slim, low-offset head helps access cheek teeth while reducing contact with soft tissues.

It is ideal for practitioners who prefer a manual rasp for fine finishing, light corrections or use alongside power tools.

Benefits of Horse Tooth Rasp Low Offset

• ✔ Low-offset head to improve access to upper and lower cheek teeth

• ✔ Long shaft for reach in larger horses and ponies

• ✔ Comfortable handle for secure grip during controlled strokes

• ✔ Suitable for routine floating and fine finishing

• ✔ Simple, robust design for everyday practice use

This combination supports accurate work while helping reduce hand fatigue during longer sessions.

Design and Features

The Horse Tooth Rasp Low Offset includes:

• A low-profile rasp head to reduce bulk inside the mouth

• A textured rasp surface for effective removal of sharp enamel points

• A rigid metal shaft that maintains control and alignment

• A non-slip handle for improved comfort and stability

The offset angle helps keep the practitioner’s hand outside the mouth while the rasp head works on the occlusal surface.

When to Use

This rasp is suitable for:

• Routine equine dental examinations and floating

• Smoothing sharp enamel points and small hooks

• Light correction work after power floating

• Touch-ups between full dental appointments

It is intended for use by veterinary surgeons and trained equine dental professionals only.

How to Use

• Fit a suitable equine gag and follow standard safety protocols

• Introduce the Horse Tooth Rasp Low Offset carefully into the mouth

• Use slow, controlled strokes along the tooth surface

• Check progress frequently with a dental mirror and light

• Rinse the mouth as needed and reassess the occlusal surface

Always work within your level of training and follow current equine dental guidelines.

Care and Cleaning

Proper care helps extend the working life of the rasp:

• Rinse the rasp thoroughly after each use to remove debris

• Dry fully to reduce the risk of corrosion

• Inspect the rasp surface for wear and damage

• Store in a clean, dry dental kit away from moisture

Replace the Horse Tooth Rasp Low Offset when the cutting surface becomes worn or if the shaft or handle are damaged.

Safety Information

Equine dental procedures carry risks for both horse and handler.

• Only trained personnel should use this rasp

• Always sedate and restrain horses as appropriate for the procedure

• Wear gloves and eye protection

• Do not use a damaged rasp, as this can increase injury risk

Used correctly as part of a complete equine dental kit, Horse Tooth Rasp Low Offset provides reliable manual rasping for safe, effective tooth maintenance.
