A participating Santa Monica-area dental office will receive your request and may reach out to schedule an appointment, including discussing payment plan or cash-pay options. Submitting is free. Any costs for actual dental services would be between you and the dental office. toothhurt.com is operated by Tooth Hurt LLC, an independent marketing service.
