Is Dental Coverage Worth It?
Dental coverage can help pet parents get back on expensive dental treatments, including:
Tooth extractions
Dental disease
Dental cleanings
Do Dogs Need Dental Coverage?
Over 80% of dogs, 3 years and older, show signs or symptoms of dental disease4. In 2025, dog parents faced with vet bills for this condition pay over $1200*. With a Spot plan, pet parents can get up to 90% cash back on the cost of treatment for dental disease.
Do Cats Need Dental Coverage?
About 85% of cats over 6 years old are affected by periodontal disease5. With an average treatment cost of over $1100, cat parents can struggle when faced with such a high vet bill. Spot plans can help protect your pet and your wallet by reimbursing up to 90% of treatment costs for dental disease in cats.
Do Spot Plans Cover Pre-existing Dental Conditions?
Spot, like most other pet insurance companies, cannot cover pre-existing dental conditions. However, if a condition is curable, cured, and free of treatment or symptoms for 180 days, it will no longer be considered pre-existing and can be covered.

New to having a dog
As I’m new to having a dog, I was unsure about whether to get pet insurance. Spot provided clear options when I was making my decision. Since selecting a policy, my claims have been very easy to submit and they have been processed very quickly. I couldn’t be more pleased and I feel good knowing I can get my puppy the care he needs.
Happy Owner
I was always skeptical about pet insurance for my dog, but after deciding to seriously consider it, I have to say that Spot was the first and only company I looked into. So far, they have not let me down. I gladly give Spot 5 stars because submitting claims is simple and stress-free. Their communication is excellent, and they consistently keep me informed throughout the process. Most importantly, they genuinely seem to care about both pets and their owners. My experience has been very positive, and I would highly recommend Spot to anyone considering pet insurance.
Fast and easy claim
I filed a claim and within a week the claim was approved. Very easy to file! Thank you!
