Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services transform smiles through teeth whitening, veneers, and ceramic crowns. We address chipped teeth, discoloration, and gaps using advanced materials that mimic natural tooth vitality. Patients receive personalized treatment plans combining aesthetic enhancements with functional improvements for lasting results.
Dental Implants
We offer traditional and mini dental implants as permanent solutions for missing teeth. Our implant process includes precise placement using modern imaging technology to ensure optimal positioning and integration with your natural bite pattern for improved functionality and appearance.
Preventive Care
Our preventive care focuses on early detection and routine maintenance to preserve dental health. Services include professional cleanings, cavity detection, and gum disease screening using digital X-rays and specialized instruments to identify issues before they become serious problems.
Restorative Dentistry
We restore damaged or decayed teeth through fillings, crowns, and root canal treatments. Our rotary endodontic instrumentation improves treatment outcomes while minimizing discomfort. Restorative procedures prioritize preserving natural tooth structure while enhancing strength and functionality.
Gum Disease Testing
Our gum disease testing uses advanced diagnostics to assess periodontal health. We evaluate pocket depths, inflammation levels, and bacterial presence to create targeted treatment plans that prevent progression and maintain overall oral health.

I found Monument Smiles in the yellow pages. I can't recommend them enough. I took a denture plate in missing a tooth and had it back the same day. And now that I've had more work done, I'm sure you'll like them too. Please reconsider them for your next dental visit. You won't go wrong

My first visit with Dr. Gary was a great experience & very professional, he explains every detail of what he is doing step by step, I thought that was awesome. After being with Dr. Van Noy for many years, I made a great decision to go with Dr. Gary as my new dentist. I was very pleased & happy with my 2 appointments. Thanks for being so energetic & caring with your patients!
