My boys love Adventure Dental!

The hygienists are gentle and do their very best to make your child feel comfortable. Dr. Monti and Dr. Pepper are very knowledgeable and compassionate.

Dr. Shandra Pepper Pediatric Dentist
A native to Southern California, Dr. Pepper graduated from UCLA in 2003 with an undergraduate degree in Physiological Sciences.

Accomplished Dental Services
To Create a Bright Smile for Your Child
Santa Clarita Pediatric Dentist
Dedicated to Providing Premier Dental Care
Both of our Santa Clarita pediatric dentists attended the UCLA School of
Dentistry and completed their residencies at the Harvard School of Dental
Medicine and Boston Children's Hospital. While they have honed their skillset
at some of the most respected institutions in the country, Dr. Monti and
Dr. Pepper have taken their education one step further by becoming Diplomates
of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. Not every specialist is
board certified. The certification process is a rigorous and voluntary
examination that tests a doctor's knowledge and skills. Maintaining your
board certification means that you must periodically be re-examined. This
means that Dr. Monti and Dr. Pepper are committed to providing exceptional
dental care to their patients by staying up to date on cutting-edge treatment
and resources.
