What is included in a bit fitting consultation?
A properly fitted bit doesn’t just include the right size and length. The anatomy of the mouth should be thoroughly checked and it’s important to understand that sometimes a specialized equine dentist should come before we can actually start bit-fitting.
During a first consultation 3 main areas are thoroughly checked:
- The anatomy of the horse’s head, neck, cheeks, mouth and teeth.
- Muscle development, sensitive areas, pain triggers and symmetry.
- Dental issues, mandibula restrictions as well as trauma or injuries.
- The currently used bridle and bits, its placement and sizes.
- Test riding with various bits chosen from the selected options.
