Yes. Pierce & Knight Family Dentistry is accepting new patients of all ages, starting at age 3. You can even schedule up to three family members in a single time block, for your convenience. Our team will help you schedule a visit that fits your schedule and answer any questions before you come in.
What should I expect at my first appointment?
At your first visit, we'll review your medical and dental history, take any needed X‑rays, and perform a thorough exam and cleaning, if we have time. We also address any concerns you'd like to discuss. You'll have time to talk with the dentist about your goals and questions.
Do you see whole families, or just adults?
We are a true family practice. We see kids, teens, adults, and seniors. Many families schedule back‑to‑back or grouped appointments so several family members can be seen in one trip. We've been treating some families for generations. Our team can't wait to be part of your dental family.
How do you help if I’m nervous about going to the dentist?
Our team is known for being kind, patient, and gentle. We explain each step before we begin, move at your pace, and offer options like dental sedation to help you relax. Many long‑time patients once felt anxious and now feel comfortable here. You can opt for sedation if you need help relaxing.
What do patients say about your office?
Pierce & Knight Family Dentistry has more than 1,400 5‑star reviews on Google. Patients often mention our friendly staff, on‑time appointments, and the way we clearly explain treatment and costs. You'll experience the same quality treatments whether you're here for a cleaning or something more complex.
Do you accept my dental insurance?
We work with many major dental insurance plans, including Delta Premier, Cigna PPO, and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City. We will help you make the most of your benefits and understand how your benefits apply. Call our office with your insurance information, and we'll check your coverage before your visit.
What if I don’t have dental insurance?
We welcome patients of all kinds, whether or not you have insurance. We accept several payment options and can discuss ways to spread out treatment when possible. Our goal is to help you get the care you need. Lack of insurance will never get in the way of your care.
Do I need to complete any forms before my first visit?
Yes. We ask new patients to fill out medical and dental history forms so we can understand your health background. You can complete these online through our Patient Forms page or arrive a few minutes early to fill them out in the office. Let us know if you have any questions about our forms.

Appointments are easy to make and are always on time, with little waiting. Parking is always available. Office staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Billing is swift and efficient. Dentists and hygienists are all excellent. I am a long-term patient and would recommend the office to all. This time, I had chipped a veneer and the office got me in the very day I phoned.

Dr. Pierce and everyone I have seen in their office has been great. They take time to answer my questions/ concerns and have 1st rate patient care.
T. G. (Verified Patient)
GREAT first appointment experience. The office is lovely and comfortable, which is very much appreciated when you’re getting a service that you can’t see. I didn’t have any issues to report, but felt like the exam was thorough enough that they would have caught one I was aware of.
E. C. (Verified Patient)
I’ve been a patient for 25 years.They are 1st class dental care. Dr. Knight is an extreme perfectionist and I believe her to be the best dentist in the KC area. My teeth haven’t lived the best life and the staff there have managed to make them very satisfying to say the least.
M. T. (Verified Patient)
Another great experience at Pierce Knight Dentistry. Always on time and greeted by friendly staff.
