Monticello Dental Center

A few doors down from County Road 11 in Big Lake sits a practice keeping Area smiles functional rather than flashy. Monticello Dental Center emphasizes cleanings, exams, fillings, crowns, bridges, and dentures to cover the usual suspects. Without cushioning the appointment time, they keep things moving—fillings to bridges on one floor, crowns already milled an elevator ride up.

By county measures, the building sits practically off 20460 County Rd 11 NW, a straightforward drive north-west of town. Commuters juggling Crystal or Elk River traffic clock the stoplight near Big Lake Park; a left turn completes the final half-mile to the rear lot.

Call ahead or show up between scheduled slots—the line (763) 263-7100 syncs with same-day cancellations better than the county website. Check the map for directions. Monticello still beats the drive back to Buffalo when the fix is simple.
