This illustration shows the anterior (front) view of a 3-year-old horse’s teeth. The 3-year-old shows all four central incisors completely erupted and in wear. Each one of these central incisors will have a deep cup since the infundibulum has just started to wear.
The intermediate incisor and corner incisor will have a long neck and appear ready to be replaced by the permanent incisors. The wolf teeth should be easily visible. The second and third premolars erupt and the deciduous caps are shed.
