How can we work together to prevent the spread of infectious disease? 🤔
Introducing the four '-ates'!
💉VaccinATE -> vaccination is an effective preventive tool against disease and its performance is monitored using disease surveillance
⚠️ IsolATE -> Isolating animals moving on to new premises or after periods away helps prevent introduction of infectious diseases
🔍InvestigATE -> Investigating animals with clinical signs to confirm disease. 🌡️ Routine temperature taking is also a simple but effective early warning system for many infectious diseases
🗨️CommunicATE -> Communicating when disease is confirmed raises awareness, ensures others can take appropriate action and facilitates disease tracking and monitoring of vaccine effectiveness

Are you an equine dentist that does not belong to an equine dental association?
Why not speak to us about becoming a member. There are benefits like an industry-leading insurance policy, regular CPD, a network of like-minded practitioners and an opportunity to progress to taking the DEFRA/RCVS approved Cat 2 exam run by ourselves.
Also, you will benefit from the strength of an association. The WWAED has ensured there is a voice for equine dentists in the equine marketplace and the association always supports its members.
All you have to do is to take our Entrance exam, aimed at the Cat 1 level, and successful completion brings you in as a full member. Our Entrance exam is also excellent for preparing you for the Cat 2 exam environment.

Why should you choose a WWAED equine dentist?
To join our association you have to pass our Category 1 exam, which consists of a written theory exam followed by a practical exam. This enables us to understand the level of work that our members can perform.
If you choose a WWAED equine dentist you know that there work has been reviewed and that they have to undertake regular CPD.
Many of our members have also taken their Category 2 qualification where they have been tested for more advanced procedures.
Our industry leading insurance is mandatory for all members.
Add to this our association principle of putting the horse first and you can see why a WWAED dentist is your best choice.
We have three DEFRA/RCVS approved Category 2 Practical exams scheduled.
We have one scheduled for April, one scheduled for May and one scheduled for October.
The Category 2 qualification is the only official UK qualification and the WWAED is the only equine dental association approved to run these exams.
