Apologies if this link has been posted before, but I'm posting it now because I just ran into this article on the web, and I'm finding it and all the pictures at the bottom really interesting.

Awesome! I have a xerox of this article but the pictures are SO much better in color.

Edit-I actually have a more complete article from another journal, but I believe most of the pictures are the same.

Cool - figure 14 is Willie and figure 15 is Peony being a good sport and model.

The Chin-Sling pictured is the original prototype.

Whoops - I misremembered. Peony was not only a good sport but had diagonal incisors and wore her Chin-Sling as needed to build up the weak side(minor weakness) of her jaw. Once the incisors were straight, she'd have a break.

They're famous. Peony looks not too happy to be sporting the headgear.

Thanks for the link, Polly.

Wow, that is very cool! I'm going to point my vet to this article. I'm sure he'll be interested.

That is great. I have already sent the link to my vet dentist and to my vet, and I also saved a copy of the PDF file.

Thanks, Polly

I believe my pig has this same problem, and will be taking him to the vet again in the next few days, along with some information I have printed from this site. What I'd like to know is where in the UK can I get a Chin-Sling? I presume it is available in the UK, as there is a UK patent. If not, does anyone know a supplier who will deliver to the UK?

He is male and almost 3 years old. Breed unknown - white, but with black skin.
