What are dental implants? Are you self-conscious about your missing teeth? There are three basic options in tooth replacement: dental implants (or tooth implants), dental bridges, and removable dentures. While bridges and dentures are certainly safe and effective, they have numerous disadvantages. Bridges require removing tooth structure from surrounding healthy teeth in order to support the permanent fixture.

My dentist is Dr. Verkler, but I have also been fortunate enough to see Dr. Knellinger as well. Both are amazing dentists that take the time to make sure you are comfortable and well taken care of. They are the perfect mixture of knowledge and clinical excellence, while still making you feel like family. I know many people are afraid to visit the dentist, but Knellinger Dental Excellence leads with compassion, care, and integrity. Highly recommend.

Went here for my first time, yes everybody was friendly. BUT money hungry is all I could think of. Im 25 and they kept pushing payment plans in my face and wouldnt stop bringing it up, you think I have the money for the thousands of dollars they think I need to pay? No? Also they made it very clear to not buy a night guard from the store and that I need theirs (approx $300)... no way jose.. my new dentist said that is perfectly fine to use the store one I bought and molded to my teeth. Much happier at my new location.

I broke a tooth. Knellinger Dental was recommended by a relative. I called and they got me in same day. I was not happy about having to go as I don't like pain or drilling. They were awesome though. No pain a cozy blanket and the work is done. I was even able to relax while the work was done. Awesome place. I highly recommend them. People are awesome.

Visited with this practice on two occasions. Each time I was given a dental plan that far exceeded the work I needed done. He wanted to “file down” my teeth to correct an overbite (no dentist over the course of my 50 years has ever suggested I had an overbite). He also proclaimed that I had excessive bleeding while he was examining my teeth despite the fact that no blood was captured through gauze. I immediately felt duped and did not regard his tactics to be patient friendly, but rather money hungry.

I felt very comfortable and welcomed from the moment I walked into the office. I will be having several dental procedures done.As we age our teeth and gums are aging right along with us and maintenance is needed to stay healthy. The Dentist,Dr.B was very thorough and explained my dental problems and was making sure that I understood what she was telling and also listening to what I had to tell her and that was very comforting. Her assistant was also excellent and very professional as well.I am happy to have found Dr.Knellinger Dental. 😀..p.s. the front desk girls are awesome.

Knellinger Dental was a excellent choice for the dental work that I had done.
The staff was excellent and made it a pleasant experience. Everyone was very professional and made you feel that you were their only patient. They took the time to explain every thing that my dental work would involve.
I would recommend them for any one that needs dental work.

I have been a customer for about two years now,
And from the minute I walked in the door it felt like family. They are all good people, kind and considerate. They listened to what I needed and helped me come up with the right plan for me. They had options for treatment and found me the financial help as well. It’s been a little tough getting so much done all at once but the staff and all the doctors there made it so much easier to deal with. Thank Dr. Dan you put together one hell of a team, and thanks to the wonderful staff especially to Gwen,Kendra, Gina, Dr.V, Dr.B you guys rock. Thanks for
