Meet Dr. Dylan McKnight
A Dental Experience That Feels Different
I believe visiting the dentist should feel straightforward, comfortable, and free from judgment. Whether you’re coming in for a routine cleaning, addressing a long-overdue concern, or simply looking for a new dental home, my goal is to make your experience as positive and stress-free as possible.
Everyone deserves access to high-quality dental care. That’s why we accept most major dental insurance plans and strive to keep our fees reasonable. I take a practical, patient-centered approach to treatment by helping you understand your options, prioritize what matters most, and avoid unnecessary procedures. I believe the best care happens when patients feel informed, respected, and involved in decisions about their oral health.
We also recognize that dental anxiety is very real. My wife is a clinical psychologist, so I’ve had many conversations with her about anxiety and what helps people feel genuinely safe and supported. Those insights have shaped the way I approach patient care. We focus on creating a calm environment where you can ask questions, move at your own pace, and feel comfortable throughout your visit.
Our office has a relaxed, team-oriented culture, and we genuinely enjoy getting to know the people we serve. We want you to leave not only with a healthier smile but also feeling that you were treated with kindness, honesty, and respect.
Education and Clinical Philosophy
Providing excellent dental care requires a commitment to lifelong learning. I believe my patients deserve treatment guided by current research, proven techniques, and thoughtful clinical decision-making — not simply what’s familiar or convenient.
After earning my Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2018, I continued to pursue advanced training in several areas of dentistry. I am particularly passionate about implant dentistry and endodontics, among other areas of care.
My goal is to combine evidence-based dentistry with clear communication and a practical treatment philosophy. This approach helps each patient feel confident in both the care they receive and the decisions we make together.
I’m proud to care for patients from communities throughout Colorado, including Westminster, Broomfield, Arvada, Northglenn, Thornton, the Denver metro area, and Sterling. I look forward to helping you achieve a healthy smile you can feel confident about.
Life Outside the Office
When I’m not practicing dentistry, you’ll usually find me at home in the Colorado foothills with my wife and our young children. I’m happiest outdoors, whether I’m camping, hiking, mountain biking, or working on projects around our property. I enjoy excavation work and building things that improve the land, and I’m always dreaming up my next project.
One of my more unexpected hobbies is collecting and caring for rare houseplants, especially begonias. There’s something rewarding about helping both plants and people thrive with the right care and attention. We also raise chickens and ducks and share our home with two wonderful dogs.
Living in Colorado has taught me to appreciate fresh air, hard work, and the importance of slowing down to enjoy time with family. Those same values shape the way I care for my patients every day, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve the Westminster community.
