Beautiful smiles come from happy patients. We create both.



Our goal is to provide you with the most comfortable, caring, high-quality dentistry available, on schedule and with a personal touch. We do not run our office like a dental factory, where you become just another number to be cycled through and where your time has little value.

We understand that your time, like our time, is important, and try to schedule your appointment so that we can focus our attention on your needs within just a few minutes of your arrival.

OUR TEAM
The Dental Excellence team is highly skilled and very friendly. We enjoy working as a team to provide our patients with excellent, comfortable care.


Dr. Noorda

Dr. Brett Noorda was born and raised in Las Vegas. He graduated with honors from Valley High School in 1986. After a year of college, Dr. Noorda served two years as a missionary for the LDS Church. He then returned to college and in 1992 graduated Cum Laude from Brigham Young University with a B.S. in Zoology and a minor in the Humanities. He received his D.M.D. degree from the Oregon Health Sciences University School of Dentistry in Portland, Oregon, graduating with Honors in 1996. After graduation, Dr. Noorda returned to Las Vegas to join his father in dental practice and has been practicing general and cosmetic dentistry in the area since.

Dr. Noorda is dedicated to furthering his dental education in order to provide the most comprehensive, research-proven yet cutting-edge dental care available. He attends Dental Continuing Education courses frequently to learn about new research, techniques, materials, and ideas in dentistry and to reinforce and refresh his knowledge and understanding of standard techniques and materials. While Nevada law requires only 12 units of continuing education per year for a dentist to maintain a license, Dr. Noorda has averaged over 50 units each year since he began practicing.

Dr. Noorda maintains memberships in many dental organizations in order to remain at the cutting edge of dental education and development, as well as to become involved in service. He is working to earn a Fellowship degree in the Academy of General Dentistry, an organization dedicated to helping dentists develop exceptional skills in all aspects of dentistry. In the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry Dr. Noorda is working to become fully accredited in cosmetic dentistry. As a member of the American Association of Endodontists, he keeps abreast of the latest developments in root canal treatment. He also maintains membership in the American Dental Association, the Nevada Dental Association and the Clark County Dental Society. Finally, he is a member of the Academy of LDS Dentists, which is primarily a service organization that provides dental services to those in need throughout the world.

Away from the office Dr. Noorda has many interests. He loves being outdoors and greatly enjoys nature. Some favorite outdoor activities include vegetable and flower gardening, astronomy, camping, mountain biking, and water and snow skiing/boarding. He also enjoys sports of all kinds like basketball, softball, tennis, and horseshoes. When not outside playing, Dr. Noorda loves to read, cook, tinker on the piano, dabble in watercolors, and listen to all kinds of music. Culturally, Dr. Noorda loves opera, musicals, plays, and even the ballet—although you’ll never catch him in tights. He is very active as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and truly enjoys the opportunities it gives him to serve others. Above all, however, Dr. Noorda’s greatest love is spending time with his wife and kids. From bedtime stories to soccer games, homework to road trips, being with family is what really keeps him happy.


Marilyn
Marilyn is the team hygienist, and has been working with Dr. Noorda for almost 10 years. She earned her Dental Hygiene degree from the Community College of Southern Nevada in 1994. Marilyn is very thorough in the cleanings she does for patients, and yet, we frequently hear from patients how gentle she is. One of the things you will notice at your first appointment with Marilyn, is that she really enjoys helping people maintain or improve their oral health. She is always willing to demonstrate proper brushing or flossing, and provide a complimentary toothbrush!

Outside of the practice, Marilyn enjoys spending time with her kids, her extended family, and making salads and awesome beef jerky.


Pat
PatPat is a native of St. Joseph, Michigan, with 27 years of dental experience. She has been with Dr. Noorda for the past 3 years, and specializes in making patients feel welcome. One of Pat's favorite things about working with Dr. Noorda and his team, is knowing that when she asks a patient before they leave, "How did it go?", their answer is going to be "Great!"

When not in the office, Pat enjoys volleyball, touring with her husband on their motorcycle, and all forms of shopping (not necessarily in that order). Pat is proud of her son (who just received a bachelor of science in architecture at UNLV), and always has a picture of her big Rottweiler, Turbo, near her computer.

Michelle
MichelleMichelle is originally from Chama, New Mexico. She is a Certified Dental Assistant with 17 years of experience, and has worked for Dr. Noorda since 2002. She is gentle and kind, and enjoys both watching people see their new smiles in the mirror for the first time after a cosmetic procedure, and helping people with dental pain become comfortable again.

When not in the office, Michelle is spending time with her fiancée Mark, their 5 kids and 2 dogs. She also enjoys walking and reading.
