About Toothcation and how it works

Toothcation is a price guide for dental work in Mexico, Costa Rica and Colombia, for patients from the US and Canada. We show what clinics and dentists have published, with the date we checked it, and we pass your request for a written quote to the clinics you choose.

Who runs it

Toothcation is run by Distril LLC, a company registered in Wyoming, USA (registration number 2022-001181081, 1021 E Lincolnway, Suite 6007, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82001). You can reach us at [email protected]. We are not a clinic. We do not treat patients and we do not give medical advice.

How the site works

1. Look up a treatment in a city. Every price comes from the clinic's own website, from the dentist's own Doctoralia profile, or from the clinic itself, and each one shows the date we checked it. We never edit a clinic's price. How we get our prices.
2. Compare. A median or range appears only when at least three clinics publish a price for that treatment in that place. A clinic cannot pay to move up on any price or clinic page.
3. Ask for written quotes. On the quote form you pick the clinics you want to hear from, or ask us to help you choose.

How a quote request reaches a clinic

When you send the quote form, we pass your name, contact details, treatment and message only to the clinic or clinics you picked. If you ask us to help you choose and pick none, we send your request to no clinic until you tell us which one. The clinic then replies to you directly, by email or WhatsApp. Today we do not charge clinics for these requests and we do not sell your details. You agree to our Terms and Privacy Policy when you send the form.

Your privacy

We count visits without cookies and we do not store IP addresses. The only outside services that handle your information are Resend, which sends the emails, and, on a clinic page, Google Maps, which loads a map card from Google. You can ask what we hold about you, have it corrected or have it deleted at any time by writing to [email protected]. The full detail is in the Privacy Policy.

If something is wrong

If a clinic page has a wrong price, or you run a clinic and want a page corrected or removed, use Correct or remove a clinic.
