With these care tips, your horse bits, snaffles and other types of bits will remain in excellent condition and ensure safe and comfortable use.

𝙍𝙚𝙜𝙚𝙡𝙢𝙞𝙜𝙚 𝙍𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙪𝙣𝙜: Rinse the bit thoroughly with water after each use to remove dirt, food residue and saliva. A damp cloth or brush can help to remove residues better.

𝙂𝙧𝙚 𝙍𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙪𝙣𝙜: Once a week or when the dentures are very dirty, you should clean them thoroughly. Soak them in warm water to loosen all residues. Use a soft brush or toothbrush to clean all corners and edges.

𝙑𝙚𝙧𝙢𝙚𝙞𝙙𝙪𝙣𝙜 𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙨𝙢𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙮: When cleaning your dentures, you should avoid aggressive cleaning agents if possible. These can attack the surface of the dentures. Instead, use mild soap solutions or special denture cleaners.

𝗚𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗽𝗼𝗽𝘀 𝗧𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗻𝗲𝗻: After cleaning, dry the dentures thoroughly to prevent rust. Allow them to air dry, making sure to remove all moisture.

𝙈𝙚𝙩𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙥𝙛𝙡𝙚𝙜𝙚: If your dentures are made of metal, you can occasionally oil them lightly to protect the surface and prevent rust. Use a special metal oil or care product.

𝙍𝙞𝙘𝙝𝙩𝙞𝙜 𝙇𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙧𝙪𝙣𝙜: Store the bit in a dry, clean place when not in use. Avoid storing the bit in humid or warm environments as this may affect the quality of the material.

Info on ➻ Sweet Iron
Sweet Iron bits from Trust are made of steel and are specially designed to develop surface rust when in contact with air and moisture. This rusty coating has a pleasant sweet taste and stimulates saliva production. These properties contribute to horses readily accepting Sweet Iron bits.

Info on ➻ Full Cheek Snaffle
The Full Cheek Snaffle is a bit that lies quietly and stably in the horse's mouth. It offers lateral support without pinching the horse's skin or lips, as the metal parts are angled. This bit is suitable for horses that need clear lateral support and guidance when turning.

Info on ➻ Single-jointed
A single-jointed bit has a single hinge point, which applies less pressure to the tongue compared to a double-jointed mouthpiece. The single-jointed mouthpiece primarily creates pressure on the bars and the lateral areas of the tongue, and can also affect the palate. It is undoubtedly one of the most commonly used mouthpieces, alongside the double-jointed mouthpiece.

Info on ➻ Double-jointed
A double-jointed mouthpiece is quite common. It has two movable parts that function like hinges. This mouthpiece is somewhat rounder and fits a little more loosely in the horse's mouth. It exerts pressure on various areas in the mouth, such as the tongue, bars, and corners of the mouth. However, it is not suitable for horses with narrow lower jaws, as the hinges can press on the bars in such cases. Compared to a single-jointed mouthpiece, a double-jointed mouthpiece creates more pressure on the tongue.

Info on ➻ Leather Bits
Leather bits are very well accepted by most horses because they have a pleasant taste. As leather is a natural material, it promotes salivation and chewing activity in the horse. The bit moves easily in the mouth, which increases comfort. Leather mouthpieces are usually made from vegetable-tanned leather and hand-stitched.

A leather mouthpiece is particularly suitable for young horses and very sensitive animals. Even horses that usually have difficulty with other bits generally readily accept a leather bit. It can help them regain confidence in using the bit.

Info on ➻ Straight Bar Bit
A straight bar bit is usually straight or slightly curved to conform to the anatomy of the horse's mouth. Compared to single or double-jointed mouthpieces, it has a sharper action.

Info on ➻ Waterford
The "Trust Waterford Bit" is a special type of horse bit that consists of many interconnected, spherical links. These balls are designed to move flexibly when pressure is applied to them. The Trust Waterford bit has a certain sharpness and can be used in various situations to gain better control over the horse.
Because the balls are flexible, this bit adapts well to the shape of the horse's mouth. It is often used for horses that react strongly to rein aids or put their tongue over the bit to resist. The Trust Waterford bit can help make the horse attentive to rein aids without overburdening it.
