Abbie McKnight

Dentist

Dr. McKnight is a native of Omaha Nebraska, growing up a Cornhusker football fan. She sought her college education at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, TN, receiving her B.S. in Biology in 1993. Though she enjoyed her time in the south, she was happy to return to the Midwest to University of Missouri-KC for her dental education. Not only did she receive her D.D.S. in 1997, as well as her A.E.G.D. in 1998 at UMKC, she also met her husband there and was married while in school. He is a periodontist in Kansas City and they have 2 boys, 24 and 21 years old.

While not caring for patients in the office, Dr. McKnight enjoys playing golf and cooking, as well as hiking and horseback riding at their hideaway in Montana. For Dr. McKnight, the best part of dentistry at this point in her career is the connection with the family of patients she has built over the past 26 years. She also enjoys the improved self-esteem and confidence that she can give to patients through beautiful esthetic dentistry and restored dental health.
