The problem is that "some plaque" will attack the teeth, the gums, eventually damage the bones and all the bacteria will enter the bloodstream to create issues with other organs. So basically you'll end up paying more when it's too late and eventually endanger your pet's life.
It also depend on the pet itself...I had a cat who never had an issue with teeth and we never really had to get those cleaned up. But I had another cat who had terrible gum issues and dental cleaning was a must for her...
