anyone know where the 11th and 12th teeth are on the horse, someones asked me to find out and its not easy to see on the net :)

thanks :D
 
Not too sure exactly what you mean. The teeth are split into arcades, upper and lowers, and numbered so the top left (if you're looking at the horse) is the first arcade and then it goes round clockwise to the 4th arcade (this being the bottom left). But on each arcade the horses only have a max of 11 teeth, the 11's being the 3rd molars right at the back of the mouth.

Pm if you need any more info :)
 
could you modify a picture with a big arrow :eek:, im rubbish at understanding written down things :eek:

thanks, have just relayed that so will see if they understand it better than i do :eek:

have a look at this website, at the universal numbering picture at the bottom.

The number before the "/" is the quadrant number and the number after is the tooth number.

So 4/11 is the 11th tooth (at the very back) on the 4th arcade (the bottom left as you face the horse)

But there are no number 12 teeth.
