Normal chewing involves firstly nipping off grass with the incisors and then passing the food back to cheek teeth with tongue. Horses don’t chew up and down like humans, but in a sideways and circular motion – only 1 side is used per mouthful.
The perfect horse will use both sides evenly, but often horses prefer to chew on one side. This may be due to discomfort on one side or just natural preference, but can lead to dental problems.
