Aging Off in Santa Monica

Just aged off your parents' dental plan
Got your own insurance but haven't picked a dentist in Santa Monica

New job in Santa Monica, new benefits, no idea where to start
Scrolling through your insurance's in-network list and zoning out

How This Works

You just aged off your parents' dental insurance and need to find your own dentist in Santa Monica. Instead of scrolling through your new insurance's in-network list, asking coworkers for recommendations, or putting it off until something hurts, you can submit your information once on toothhurt.com. A participating Santa Monica-area dental office will receive your request and may reach out to schedule an appointment. 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. We are not a dental practice and do not provide dental care, diagnosis, or clinical advice. If you have severe swelling, difficulty breathing, or a high fever, call 911.

Tooth-people fact: The Santa Monica Pier marks the official western terminus of historic Route 66. The 'End of the Trail' sign there commemorates the 2,448-mile journey that begins in Chicago.

Sixty seconds. That's all this takes.
