Periodically a horse’s teeth need to be filed down or floated. This is typically done with with a large rasp or file. Some horses can just have their mouths held open but for most the use of a mouth gag or as it is professionally termed a mouth speculum is a huge help.
Good quality speculums are made of stainless steel the best models have straps made of leather. Most are made in Europe.
They are put on like a halter and they have a ratchet machanism that allows the mouth to be held open as far as needed to accomplish the dental work.
