Veterinary Pet Insurance Data Reveals Pet Dental Health a Low Priority for Many Pet Owners
Date:2/1/2008

mier Coverage rider renew annually, allowing pet owners to receive reimbursement for the procedure once a year.

"A pet can be vaccinated in a matter of minutes and flea preventive treatment is relatively easy to administer, but thorough teeth cleaning involves hospitalizing the pet for the day and anesthesia," said McConnell. "This drives the cost of teeth cleaning past that of typical preventive procedures and keeps many pet owners from considering professional cleaning. By increasing the reimbursement available for teeth cleaning on its new WellCare plan, VPI hopes to lessen this financial hesitation and encourage pet owners to be more proactive about their pet's dental health."
