Yes, we cover dental as long as it's not pre-existing or it hasn't happened within the waiting period, including descaling and polishing for when it's the only treatment for an illness of the teeth or gums.

To qualify for claims:

  • In order to claim for dental treatment, your pet must have had a dental check-up carried out by their vets within the 12 months prior to the onset of the dental condition they’re looking to claim for.

  • The treatment must have taken place within 3 months of the vet's recommendation.

You can see how much dental work you're covered for in your dashboard.
