Dentist in Monrovia Offering General & Specialty Services

Are you seeking a Monrovia dentist who can meet the oral health needs of your entire family? Well, look no further than the team of West Coast Dental; we’re ready and willing to serve everyone in Monrovia and the surrounding areas. We focus on providing you with excellent dental care and a great experience. Our dental services range from general dentistry for patients of all ages and to handling everything from teeth whitening to root canal to porcelain dental veneers.

Our practice is proud to have doctors with years of experience, and our clinicians have excellent credentials. We’re also self-regulated with a compliance department that ensures we adhere to high standards of care at all times. For you and yours, this means services that ensure the health and beauty of your smile.

Helping You Achieve Your Perfect Smile

We welcome all patients. Our pediatric dentists promote dental health for children and serve as a parental resource. If you’re an adult who has practiced tooth and gum care, we can help you continue and refine that dental plan. If you have put off dental care for whatever reason or have recently suffered tooth or gum damage, we’ll work with you on a long-term smile makeover. Our dental practice provides our patients with the care they need when they need it.

Count on us for competitive pricing without sacrificing quality. Our practice offers a number of financing options and accepts most insurance plans, to make dental care more easily accessible and affordable.

The Dental Services We Provide

We have a high-end, modern, and state-of-the-art dental office. We foster an environment that is clean, accessible, and friendly. Much of our staff is bilingual, working very hard to ensure the best experience possible for patients. Our dentists, including our on-site specialists, strive to build relationships with our patients that will benefit you for years to come.

If you require basic care, such as teeth cleaning, we can do that; but we also take X-rays, install implants, and perform oral surgery. We offer all specialties under one roof, including:

  • Orthodontics
  • Family dentistry
  • Emergency dental services
  • Oral surgery
  • Cosmetic dentistry

Braces to Adjust for Overcrowding

Why settle for a less-than-perfect smile when our practice can provide you with orthodontics that make all the difference in the world? Let us fit you with the dental appliance of your choice — whether clear plastic aligners or traditional metal braces. We provide you with regular dental treatment over a number of months, adjusting your braces to move your teeth into the correct alignment. The result? Straight teeth and a confident smile.

In Times of Emergency

The time may come when one of the members of your family experiences a dental emergency. Look to our practice for guidance and dental treatment. Call our dentist office to let us know what has happened, and we provide you with the best possible advice and capable service.

We understand it may be hard for you to determine what conditions require emergency dental services. That’s why you can call us. There may be help we can give you over the phone or we can clear the decks for the treatment you need. Rest assured our staff is dedicated to helping you move through this crisis with the best possible outcome.

Beautifying Your Smile

The oral health and appeal of your smile are our biggest priorities. Many of the cosmetic treatments we provide not only enhance the appearance of your smile, but they also work to improve the functionality of your teeth. Our services include everything from teeth whitening to crowns and bridge to dental implants. Feeling good about your teeth boosts your confidence and fosters more attentive care.

At West Coast Dental of Monrovia, we offer convenient hours and appointment flexibility Monday through Saturday. We can provide same-day care in many cases and also are available for emergencies. Contact us today. Patients from throughout Monrovia, California, and surrounding communities come to us for general dentistry work.

We are committed to making dental and orthodontic care affordable. Exams and x-rays are free to new patients (with a $59
annual membership to Dental Alliance), and we offer competitive prices on all our dental and orthodontic services.
