Dr. Knechtel has been practicing dentistry for 29 years. He received his degree at Oregon Health Science University in 1995. After college, this former Longmont High School graduate, returned home to start his practice. Dr. Knechtel likes to remain on the cutting edge of dentistry and continually looks for ways to improve the patient experience. He has added to his credentials by getting extra training in implant placement and orthodontics in addition to his original degree.

He is quite proud of his family and enjoys watching them grow and participate in sports. He is also an avid fly fisherman and occasionally brings back pictures of his trophy fish to give proof of his fishing stories.
