Woman accused of working as dentist in Las Vegas without license

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — State officials allege a woman was performing dental procedures in Las Vegas without a license, according to documents the 8 News Now Investigators obtained.

Monica Davis faces a charge of illegal practice of dentistry, a felony, for running the business on Sahara Avenue near Rainbow Boulevard in the west valley, documents said.

State investigators said Davis ran a company called The Veneer Experts, but the business had no license. The company also lists Chicago as a location on its website. Officials said Davis moved to the Las Vegas area from Illinois, though there was no indication she had a license in either state, state officials said.

A woman who filed a complaint told state investigators she saw an advertisement for the business on Facebook and scheduled an appointment, documents said.

The woman said she arrived at the location provided to her in a text message, finding the veneer business in a room at a beauty parlor, documents said.

The person who performed the procedure, later identified as Davis, shaved the woman’s tooth, and applied a composite to it, documents said.
