It is important to note that these are just estimates, and the actual cost of treating your pet will vary depending on the severity of the illness or injury, your location, and the type of veterinarian you see. Dental cleanings are considered preventative care and are reimbursed in optional, non-insurance wellness plans, but not covered under pet insurance plans.
The likelihood of your pet developing a particular dental illness or injury will vary depending on several factors, including their breed, age, diet, and chewing habits. However, as you can see from the table above, dental disease is very common in pets, affecting up to 90% of dogs and cats over the age of 3. Embrace has your pet covered for dental accidents and illnesses up to $1,000 per policy year.
Your pet is family, and we know you want to provide the best care possible. Our insurance is designed to give you peace of mind when the unexpected happens. That's why our coverage focuses on accidents and illnesses, including serious dental conditions. If your pet develops a dental disease or needs an extraction, we're there to help you handle the cost. To keep our focus on these necessary treatments, routine wellness care like teeth cleanings are not covered by the policy.
The best way to prevent dental illnesses and injuries:
Brushing your pet’s teeth
Dental Chews
Toys that help clean teeth
Taking your pet to the veterinarian for regular dental checkups and cleanings is essential for maintaining their overall health. While routine dental care may not be included in standard accident and illness plans, some optional wellness plans may provide coverage for these services.
Many pet insurance providers overlook the importance of dental care, leaving pet parents in a difficult position when issues arise.

Pre-existing conditions are excluded, though Embrace does cover some curable pre-exisiting conditions.

We see routine, preventative pet dental care as critical to maintaining your pet's overall health (one reason we’re rated 4.9/5 on Pet Insurance Review.com), which is why many pet insurances offer Wellness Plans that will pay you back for preventative dental care.
