Riding after wolf tooth removal - how long?

[Nimbus65]

Title says it all really . . .

Kal had a small wolf tooth removed today - it was sharp and loose so out it came during a routine dental visit. Minimal blood and fuss . . . no sedation and only a little topical analgaesic.

When can he be worked with a bit in his mouth again? He goes in a french link snaffle and is pretty quiet in his mouth. I don't want to interfered with the healing of his gum . . .

Any ideas/advice?

Thanks in advance,

N

One of mine had a couple of wolf teeth out, It was years ago, If I remember it was a week before I bitted him again. They too were very shallow and popped out with minimal fuss.

When my last horse had 2 wolf teeth removed (with minimal fuss), I was advised to leave him for approx. 10 days before riding

Buzz had the same recently. I left him a week and rode after that and he was fine
