    How Many Teeth Does a Horse Have?


    by SydneyE on October 31, 2011


    A typical adult male horse has 40 permanent teeth, while a typical mare may have 36 to 40 teeth.  Mares are less likely to have canine (bridle) teeth. A horse’s permanent teeth are about four inches long.


    Like humans, horses have two sets of teeth in their lifetimes.  The baby teeth, called deciduous teeth, are temporary.  The first deciduous incisors may erupt before the foal is born.  The last deciduous teeth come in when the horse is about eight months of age.  These “baby” teeth will begin to be replaced by adult teeth around the age of 2 1/2. By the age of 5, most horses have all of their permanent teeth.
