SMS Messaging Policy

Last updated: June 2026

Program Description

Torrance Dental Center / Torrance Dental Center uses an automated missed-call notification service. If you call our office at (310) 371-0777 and your call goes unanswered, you may receive one automated SMS reply acknowledging your missed call and inviting you to call back or reply. This is a courtesy notification — not marketing.

Consent

By calling Torrance Dental Center, you provide prior express consent to receive one automated SMS response if your call is not answered. SMS consent is not required to receive care or services.

Recorded Greeting

"Hi, you have reached Torrance Dental Center. We are unable to take your call right now. We will send you a text message shortly. Please leave your message after the beep."

You provide prior express consent to this single automated SMS by calling our office (see Consent above). Message and data rates may apply, and you may reply STOP at any time to opt out — full details are below. Consent is not required to receive care or services.
