LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR PRACTICE
WELCOME TO VALLEY VIEW DENTAL!

The journey is new, but the place is familiar. Dr. Mary Rock is a dentist with over 25 years of experience and is thrilled to return to her home state to operate Valley View Dental.
Dr. Rock graduated from the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry in 1996 and has practiced in Nebraska and New Mexico. She grew up on a farm near Avoca, a small Iowa town located approximately 40 miles east of Council Bluffs.
Dr. Rock thrives on building connections with patients. By now, she realizes people don't buzz with excitement for a dentist appointment. With that in mind, Dr. Rock's personality naturally creates a warm, light environment that prioritizes professionalism and productivity. Dr. Rock routinely finds the appropriate treatment plan for a variety of considerations, including cosmetic dentistry, root canals, implants, clear aligners, sleep disorders and, perhaps most importantly, the relationship between one's oral health and their overall wellbeing.
Growing up, Dr. Rock's teeth were crooked - a source of personal doubt and self-consciousness. She calls a successful correction of her smile life-changing, and that's not hyperbole. Doing the same for others is part of what continues to drive her passion, day-in and day-out. (If you look good, you feel good ... and all of that). Dr. Rock and her husband Tom are parents to four adult children - and a miniature dachshund - and love spending time with their seven grandchildren. Dr. Rock enjoys being outside (hiking, biking, swimming, catching a nearby live music show …) and she also enjoys sewing and being active in her community.
At Valley View Dental, Dr. Rock and her team take pride in developing trustworthy and communicative relationships with patients - and, yes, they like to have fun along the way, too.

Dr. Rock grew up on a farm in Iowa, where she learned the values of hard work, integrity, and caring for others- principles that continue to guide her today as a dedicated dentist. She is passionate about helping patients feel comfortable and confident in their smiles while continually expanding her knowledge and skills to provide the best possible care.
Outside the office, Dr. Rock treasures time with her family and miniature dachshund. She's a proud wife, mom, and grandmother who loves cheering on her grandchildren at their sports events, spending time outdoors, tending to her flowers, and staying active through exercise and yoga. Whether at work or at home, she believes in lifelong growth, connection, and creating smiles that last a lifetime.
