wow! that seems high (but then I'm not in Australia)...last time I had to have a power float done on my horse (he had a bad wave mouth) it only cost $175 and that included the sedation. A regular float is only 35...I can't remember what they charge for wolf teeth.

Sorry MI.:(

I thought so too i usually pay about $80 per horse for a good dentist

live and learn I guess...trying to do right by a horse is sometmes really hard. Mine got sick with some strange fever a year ago...for 2 weeks we tried to figure out what was wrong with him...antibiotics, bute/banamine, x-rays of his sinus, blood work (twice)...he would get a bit better and then get sick again...it wnet on for almost a month...cost me over $1000 dollars...we never figured out what was wrong, one day he ran a fever of 104 and then that night it broke and he was fine...no problem...they can make you nuts:o
