Two doctors, one shared vision for better dentistry

Red Rock Dental Group was founded by Dr. Sam Elcik and Dr. Tom Bordieri, two dentists who met through their shared training at Roseman University of Health Sciences and who built their careers around a simple conviction: patients deserve more from their dental care. Dr. Sam went on to complete a hospital-based General Practice Residency in Seattle, gaining deep experience with complex surgical and medical cases. Dr. Tom completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at UCLA, sharpening his skills in comprehensive restorative care. Together, they bring a combined level of clinical training and experience that is uncommon in a general practice setting.

Both doctors were drawn to dentistry for the same reasons: the problem-solving, the craft, and the ability to make a real difference in someone's life. Whether that means getting a patient out of pain, restoring their ability to eat comfortably, or giving them back confidence in their smile, that tangible impact is what motivates them every day. They opened Red Rock because they wanted to practice dentistry on their own terms, with the right technology, the right team, and a genuine commitment to doing right by every patient they see.

A team and an office built around you

From the front desk to the treatment room, every member of the Red Rock team is chosen for their skill, their communication, and their commitment to making patients feel genuinely comfortable. You will work with dedicated coordinators for new patients, hygiene, insurance, and treatment planning, so there is always someone who knows your situation and can answer your questions clearly. The team operates with a culture of accountability and care that Dr. Sam and Dr. Tom set the tone for from day one.

The office itself is designed to make your experience as comfortable as possible. Each operatory is equipped with a TV or monitor, blankets are available, and there is a beverage station in the waiting area. New patient forms are completed digitally before your visit so you spend less time on paperwork and more time focused on your care. It is the kind of thoughtful setup that reflects how seriously the team takes your time and your comfort.

Comprehensive care without the runaround

Red Rock Dental Group was built to handle the procedures that most general practices refer out. Dental implants, oral surgery, bone grafting, root canal therapy, same-day crowns, and IV sedation are all available in-house, which means fewer referrals, fewer appointments at unfamiliar offices, and a team that knows your full picture from start to finish. Dr. Sam and Dr. Tom use advanced technology throughout, including 3D CBCT imaging, a digital intraoral scanner, CEREC crown milling, and digital X-rays, to make sure every diagnosis is accurate and every treatment plan is well-founded.

For patients with dental anxiety, the practice offers a full range of sedation options including laughing gas, oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation. This is not a practice that lists sedation on its website and then hands you a couple of pills. Real sedation, administered by experienced doctors, is available for patients who need it. The philosophy across every service is the same: give patients honest information, present their options clearly, and focus on long-term outcomes rather than quick fixes.
