Can you tell how old a horse is by their teeth?

I need a little diagram of horse ages, like what will their teeth look like at 2 years old, etc

Can you tell how old a horse is by their teeth?
Here you go, this has pictures %26amp; paragraphs describing what to look for, with different ages:

Reply:Yes if its off it may only be a year
Reply:Starting at 2 years of age the horse's front teeth (incisors) are the way to tell age. There are three sets of incisors, central, intermediate and corners. Open the horse's lips and look to see if all are baby teeth or adults. The central pair are adult (permanent at 2 - 2 1/2 years., the intermediate at 3 - 3 1/2 years and the adult corner incisors at 4 - 4 1/2 years. At 4 1/2 - 5 1/2 years of age some horses (mostly males) grow canine teeth which is that fang-like tooth just behind the incisors.





Now starting at six years old, you need to look at the flat (table) surface of the lower incisors. There is a pit called the infundibulum that is easily seen in the center of each incisor's flat surface. At six years of age the pits of lower central permanent incisors are worn out (disappear). At 7 years the lower central incisors lose their pit and the upper corner incisor develops a hook off the back edge. By 8 years, all the lower adult incisors have lost their pit but a new small depression (dental star) appears in the lower central incisors. At 9 years of Age, the horse's lower central and intermediate and intermediate and upper central incisors will have a dental star but the infundibulum (pit) of the upper corner incisor is still present - they do not disappear until the horse is eleven years old.





From the age of eleven on, the incisors become more triangular and the teeth begin to project out toward the front of the mouth more with each additional year. The best way to get good at aging horses is by practice. Look at as many horses of know age and test yourself.





heres a little diagram in case you are confused about what teeth this is referring to

Reply:It is accepted practice to age a horse by looking at its teeth. Often if an animal is not tatooed and papered, the teeth do not lie. Even with a diagram it takes practice and experience.
Reply:normally you can age a horse fairly accurately by their teeth, but sometimes due to cribbing, years spent eating sand, toothloss etc.. it can throw off the horses estimated ages by quite a lot. horses like that, ones with atypical or otherwise hard to read teeth i would call a smooth mouth and only give an estimated age
