Many years ago I went to this dentist scared to death. He and his staff are so kind and understanding that over the years my apprehension has disappeared and I can sit and snooze while he "does his thing". A million miles from those early white knuckle trips.

Dental Examination

Our staff will attend to your every need from the moment you walk in the door, and Dr. McKnight will provide hands-on, gentle, and attentive dental care. We never rush our patients through the door, so we always have time to answer your questions and get to know you as an individual.

X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
When Dr. McKnight performs a checkup, he visually inspects each tooth and your gums, mouth, tongue, and throat for any signs of serious conditions, such as tooth decay and gum disease. He also conducts an oral cancer screening. By checking for these conditions every six months, he is able to find and treat problems before they progress to more advanced stages, in which more damage can be done. Early detection and treatment of oral conditions is key to restoring and preserving your natural smile and oral health.

Teeth Cleaning
As the name suggests, this procedure entails a two-step process for treating gum disease. First, we must get rid of the plaque and bacteria buildup on the teeth that is causing the infection. Performing this deeper, more rigorous cleaning is called scaling. Unlike a routine dental cleaning, scaling goes underneath the gumline to capture and empty trapped pockets of bacteria. Then, root planing is a process that leaves the exposed roots smooth and slick, which makes it easier for the gums to reattach and more difficult for plaque to get stuck there again in the future.
Fluoride Treatment
After your cleaning, you may receive a fluoride treatment, which helps strengthen your teeth’s enamel against decay. It is a quick, painless way to protect your teeth between visits.
Dental Sealants
Another helpful preventive treatment is available with dental sealants. These are thin plastic coverings that are painted directly onto the molars and premolars to prevent the buildup of food particles and bacteria that can lead to tooth decay. This preventive treatment is especially helpful for patients who are at a higher risk of developing cavities. Dental sealants are applied within minutes and can provide years of protection against tooth decay.

Fillings
However, tooth-colored fillings also have a few other benefits over their metal counterparts. They can be hardened in just seconds using a curing light, whereas amalgam fillings may take a few hours to completely harden. They are also a more conservative approach than amalgam. With metal fillings, the dentist would have to remove some of the natural tooth structure to make room. Tooth-colored fillings can be applied seamlessly to the outside of the tooth without compromising any of its structure.
Resin Composite
When the dentist tells you that you have a cavity, it used to mean you’d have to get a mouth full of metal to fill it up. Fortunately, modern dentistry has come a long way, so fillings these days are made of a composite resin material that can be color-matched to seamlessly and beautifully blend in with the rest of your tooth. They perfectly mimic the structure of natural teeth, even down to the way they reflect light. The next time Dr. McKnight says you have a cavity, you can rest easy knowing that your filling will be virtually unnoticeable.
Veneers
If you’re suffering from multiple dental imperfections, you probably wish you could have a smile do-over -- and with porcelain veneers, you can! These thin shells completely cover the surface of damaged teeth, creating the beautiful smile you’ve always dreamed of. Keep reading to find out more about this transformative treatment offered by Dr. McKnight.
Crowns
A dental crown is a restoration that compensates for a single tooth above the gums. It is often used in these types of scenarios...
Bridges
It’s always a good idea to complete a consultation with a professional before receiving dental bridges. When you call our practice, Dr. McKnight’s team will get you scheduled for an appointment so you can discuss your needs with him directly. During this visit, he’ll break down the two most common types of dental bridges to consider. Below, you can read about their specific differences and the most ideal candidate for each.
Dental Bonding
Rejuvenate your spirit while we rejuvenate your smile. Our office offers spa amenities to enhance your cosmetic dentistry experience with services that include aromatherapy towels and an on-site massage therapist. Our relaxing atmosphere will help ease any tension during your cosmetic bonding, teeth whitening, or porcelain veneers procedure.
Restorative Dentistry
Thanks to modern technology and advances in restorative dentistry techniques, you always have options when dealing with dental damage. Even with regular dental healthcare, you may experience problems including damage to tooth roots, cavities, and missing teeth, and Dr. McKnight can rebuild your mouth and counteract these problems using a variety of procedures designed to fit your specific needs.

Root Canal Treatment
It’s just about dinner time, and you’re hungry, but you don’t really want to eat because your tooth is in so much pain. What started as a minor annoyance a few days ago is now keeping you up at night, and you know it’s time to reach out to your dentist in Mesquite. When it comes to stopping the worst toothaches, often the most effective thing Dr. McKnight can do is perform root canal therapy. Despite its reputation, once the procedure is completed, the only regret most patients have is that they didn’t get it sooner. But, because we know it can make a lot of people feel anxious, you can learn a little more about how it works right here.

Deep Cleaning

Dentures
Thanks to advances in technology, dentures and partials don’t have to be uncomfortable or cause embarrassing moments anymore. Dr. McKnight can create comfortable dentures and partials that look natural and allow you to eat and speak with confidence, restoring your smile to its original beauty…only better. Our precisely-crafted restorations are made of the highest quality materials for results that are reliably durable and seamlessly lifelike. What’s more, we’re proud to offer AVADENT

Dental Implants
Every tooth is important for more than just chewing. They are also influential to your self-esteem. If you have lost a few teeth over the years, you know firsthand the effects an incomplete smile has on both your everyday life and your confidence. Fortunately, you don’t need to hide your smile any longer. Dr. McKnight offers the solutions you need for tooth replacement: dental implants!

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Tooth Extractions
Ask any dentist, including Dr. McKnight, and they’ll say that it’s best to keep your natural teeth for as long as you can. However, that’s not always possible. Sometimes, the best thing to do for a patient’s oral health is to remove a tooth that has been infected or is causing pain. If you need a tooth extraction in Mesquite, you can rest easy knowing that your smile is in Dr. McKnight’s capable hands. He will handle your procedure with compassion and gentleness. He and the rest of the team will also be able to help you decide which, if any, option you should choose to fill the gaps in your smile. If you have a tooth that has been bothering you, contact us today to see if a tooth extraction is necessary.
Bone Grafting
Dental implant surgery requires a skilled oral surgeon or periodontist. Dr. McKnight will use the latest advancements and technology to map out your mouth to create a plan of treatment. He will determine all aspects of your treatment, including if bone grafting is needed and which type of implant will be best for you. Then, he will insert the titanium posts into the jawbone to act as a tooth root, giving the implanted tooth a sturdy and stable foundation. Once the bone has healed around the implant, the custom-made prosthetic tooth will be attached to the post, giving you a new smile and restored function.

Orthodontics
Teeth that line up the way they should look better, are easier to clean, and also promote better jaw health. If you are dealing with gapped, crowded, or otherwise misaligned teeth, it may be time to consider your options in orthodontics. We offer solutions for patients of all ages.
Invisalign Orthodontics
The accuracy of your treatment with Invisalign will be due in part to the advanced planning that occurs beforehand. To create your treatment plan, Dr. McKnight will scan your smile with our Cadent iTero wand. Cadent iTero has brought dental impression into the 21st century. Instead of taking multiple impressions with messy, uncomfortable putty, we can capture detailed digital images of your teeth in just a matter of minutes. Then, once we’ve planned your treatment using your this impression, Dr. McKnight can send that plan to an Invisalign lab where your clear aligners will be carefully fabricated.
Braces
More adults than ever wear braces these days – one in five orthodontic patients is an adult – but not exclusively for cosmetic reasons. The savvy consumer knows that you're never too old to enjoy the health benefits of a straight smile. For instance, symptoms like earaches, dizziness, headaches, and neck pain can all be associated with a misaligned jaw. Correcting the bite can alleviate these symptoms and improve function and comfort while reducing the potential for tooth wear. In addition, straight teeth are also less prone to decay and gum disease.

Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening is a popular method for improving the appearance of the teeth that show when you smile. This is a non-invasive, affordable option that teens and adults can both benefit from. At our office, we prefer the KöR Teeth Whitening system -- it is customizable and reduces tooth sensitivity for the best, most comfortable whitening you could imagine. Keep reading to learn more about your options with KöR and which one may be best for you!
Cosmetic Dentistry
Showing off your gorgeous smile lifts your spirits and brightens the day of those around you. We want you to always feel like smiling, but if you suffer from cosmetic dental issues such as stained, chipped, gapped, or crooked teeth, being self-conscious probably prevents you from doing so. Offering a range of cosmetic dentistry procedures, Dr. Byron McKnight knows how to fix your smile imperfections and will have you lighting up rooms with your bright, beautiful smile in no time.
General Dentistry
Dr. Byron McKnight brings a wealth of education and experience into every visit to his office. He also employs a staff of top-notch dental hygienists to provide preventive care including regular thorough cleanings and oral hygiene education. When you visit Dr. McKnight’s Mesquite dental office for your general dentistry needs, you also have the added benefit of spa dentistry services, including massage and aromatherapy, taking what would normally be a routine dental care trip and turning it into a relaxing, enjoyable experience. General dentistry may sound simple, but your visit to Dr. McKnight’s office will be anything but routine.
