To help take the best care of your pet, you need pet insurance with more bite. Make sure your insurance covers you for dental illness and injury to help support your pet’s health. With insurance from Petplan, you and your pet will both have something to smile about.
Yes, we do! We’ll cover the treatment of a dental injury and illness providing your pet has an annual dental examination with the vet and any treatment recommended is carried out within six months of the examination.
Dental cover varies from provider to provider. Some pet insurers cover dental as standard but some policies may not include dental illness or injury. When looking for the policy that's right for you and your pet you should also ask whether dental cover will be included and ensure you understand the terms and conditions. Petplan policies cover dental illness and injury as standard, provided your pet receives an annual dental examination from a vet and all recommended treatments are carried out within six months of this appointment. 
Cleaning costs will differ depending on the extent of plaque and tartar build up. Your vet should be able to provide you with an estimate of cost after they have examined your pet’s teeth.
Always consult your vet if you notice your pet is demonstrating any signs of discomfort. Please do not use human medicines or any other medicine that your vet has been prescribed for another reason.
Yes, good dental hygiene is really important for dogs. Not only can neglect lead to gum disease and the subsequent loss of the teeth, bacteria will enter the bloodstream, and become lodged in organs that filter the blood such as the kidneys and liver. These bacteria can then multiply and lead to failure of these organs.
You should aim to have your cat’s teeth examined by a vet at least every 12 months to determine if any treatment is needed. In between appointments, you should look to establish a cleaning routine at home, to help maintain healthy teeth and gums.
