One office in Santa Monica. Families across the Westside.
Planning a visit from Bel Air
Bel Air’s residential streets and hillside setting mean that a family’s route to Santa Monica depends on its exact starting point. Our practice serves Bel Air residents at 1304 15th Street, Suite 206, in Santa Monica. Use that full address when making travel arrangements or sharing the destination with another caregiver.
When planning a first visit, ask about appointment duration, arrival details, and any forms needed beforehand. Use current navigation instead of a fixed neighborhood-wide travel estimate. If a parent and caregiver are sharing responsibilities for the visit, confirm what the practice needs for communication and consent in advance.
Make the most of your appointment
Some children want to know every step of a visit; others benefit from a simple introduction and a calm pace. Explain your child’s preferences and any sensory sensitivities when contacting us. Our first-visit information describes the team’s approach to introductions and gives parents a useful starting point for preparation.
Get to know pediatric dentists Dr. Bernard Gross and Dr. Michael Kleinman, and orthodontist Dr. Gary Saltz. Their profiles explain their backgrounds and approach to care.

Pediatric dentistry
The pediatric dentistry page introduces care available for children, including exams, cleanings, preventive treatments, and fillings. A dental visit lets the doctor assess needs and explain recommendations directly to the family.
Orthodontics & Invisalign
Bel Air patients interested in orthodontics can ask about braces, Invisalign, and the evaluation process. Treatment choices and visit schedules are individualized, so discuss the practical details during the consultation.

Questions from Bel Air families
Where do Bel Air families visit your dental team?
At our Santa Monica office: 1304 15th Street, Suite 206, Santa Monica, CA 90404. We serve Bel Air as a community and do not list a separate Bel Air office.
Should I tell you about sensory sensitivities before the appointment?
Yes. Share the situations, sounds, or previous experiences that may affect your child’s comfort when you call. The team can discuss the visit and any preparation that may help, based on your child’s needs.
What should we bring to a first appointment?
Ask which new-patient forms are needed, and have your child’s medical and dental history, medication information, and insurance details available. Contact us about sharing recent dental records or X-rays before the visit. Our first-visit page explains what to expect.
How do we check insurance and appointment availability?
Call 310-362-6529 or use the appointment request page. Share your plan details and the type of care you are seeking. Confirm coverage, possible out-of-pocket costs, and the appointment time with the team; submitting a request does not by itself confirm a booking.
