When I suddenly had horrible spiking pain when I ate certain foods (and not just sweets) I went to the dentist, who had me grind a piece of marking paper in my teeth. It showed that I had spikes from uneven grinding, and *I* needed my teeth floated! Because of this experience, I sympathize a lot more with horses that show mouth pain, having uneven grinding surfaces HURTS! Worse yet, it hurts at seemingly random times, so sometimes you feel the pain, and sometimes you don’t, so you might think your horse is just being bad. Check those teeth out, even if your horse isn’t showing pain all the time!

Haven’t needed to do that yet. It’s something I’d be interested in learning how to do.
