Kris Kokal EqDT graduated from one of only 4 Equine Dental Academies in the USA. His EqDT certification was received while attending the Midwest Equine Dental Academy, Michigan, in residence.
Kris has a strong desire to make the horse world a better place for horses and has expanded his extensive resume of Horse Training, Farrier & Barefoot Trimming work. He continually strives to be an ardent advocate to help both horse and owner. He wants to educate horse owners on the benefits of maintaining a horse’s mouth properly to foster a wholesome healthy horse.
Equine dental equilibration is a term used to describe proper balance and maintenance of the equine mouth. Performance floats can benefit trainers and owners to obtain maximum performance from their animals. Care of the equine mouth is not simply “floating”, but includes incisor reduction, canine reduction, molar reduction, and tartar removal.
Kris works without sedation. He uses his classic horsemanship skills to keep the horse calm. He then earns their trust. His passion for dentistry is evident from the first touch. Kris enjoys doing mini’s teeth and has the proper sized equipment to deal with minis as well. They too need their teeth done every year.
