Answer2:
A horses teeth are fully grown by the time they lose their baby or milk teeth. Once this happens the horses adult teeth begin to erupt through the gum-line and continue to do this for the vast majority of their adult life. The purpose of dental eruption in horses is to replace the amount of tooth lost to chewing up the tough forages horses evolved to eat. The forages are tough and wear down the dental surfaces necessitating dental eruption to replace what was lost.
