*The dvm360 Clinical Updates: Dental Care study was sent by email to subscribers of dvm360 magazine, Vetted and Firstline. The survey generated 736 responses, creating a margin of error of about 3 percentage points (although sample sizes-and statistical reliability-on individual questions may be considerably lower).
