The specialty mix here is broader than most neighborhoods of this size manage, with seven categories represented alongside general dentistry. This guide uses only what the national provider registry records for these addresses.
What is listed in Knox
Thirty-four of the 53 listings report general dentistry as their primary specialty and 4 more are registered as dental clinics. The specialist side covers orthodontics with 4 listings, endodontics with 4, periodontics with 3, prosthodontics with 2, oral and maxillofacial surgery with 2 and oral pathology with 1.
The addresses spread across five streets. N Central Expy has 15 listings, Cole Ave has 12, Webb Ave has 7, Knox St has 6 and Harvard Ave has 4. That spread means distance is a genuine filter here rather than a formality.
Thirty-three listings are registered to an individual dentist and 20 to an organization. Thirty-three of the 53 were registered before 2010, and the oldest registration in the neighborhood dates to 2005.
How to choose between them
For routine care you are choosing among 34 general dentists and 4 clinics. Start with which street is easiest for you, then ask about in network status with your plan, how far ahead they book, and how they handle problems out of hours.
The advantage of this neighborhood is that most referrals should stay close. With 4 endodontists, 3 periodontists, 2 oral surgeons and 2 prosthodontists listed, treatment that runs across several visits is easier to fit into a week.
The individual and organization mix leans toward named practices. Ask whether the dentist you book with is the one you will see, and what the arrangement is when they are away.
- Ask which of the five main streets the practice is on.
- Ask who they refer to and how far that is.
- For implants or gum surgery, ask for a written plan before agreeing.
If you need something Knox does not have
Pediatric dentistry is the one specialty with no listing here. The nearest are elsewhere in Dallas, about 1.5 miles away, where 123 pediatric dental practices are registered, so choice is not the issue once you look past the neighborhood.
Many general dentists see children as part of family practice, so ask a local general dentist before assuming you need a pediatric specialist.
Nearby neighborhoods add plenty of general choice. Lowest Greenville is 0.9 miles away with 19 listings and Lower Greenville 1.0 miles with 4. University Crossing has 45 at 1.3 miles, Oak Lawn 35 at 1.4 miles, Uptown 28 at 1.5 miles and Old East Dallas 27 at 1.9 miles.
Insurance and paying
Ask whether the practice is in network with your specific plan, not simply whether it accepts your insurance company. Out of network care can still be billed to your insurer, but you will normally pay a larger share.
For anything beyond an exam and cleaning, ask for a written estimate that lists each procedure code, the practice's fee, what your plan is expected to pay and your portion. Ask for it before treatment starts.
Our listings come from the national provider registry, which records name, address and reported specialty only. It holds no fees, no opening hours and no insurance information. In Knox, none of the 53 listings has a published website or published hours. That is why claimed listings matter: claiming a page is how a practice adds what the registry never carried.
If it is urgent
For a broken tooth, a lost crown, or pain that has kept you awake, call the general practices nearest you and ask specifically whether they hold same day emergency slots. With 34 general dentists, 4 clinics and 4 endodontists listed, urgent tooth pain has a fair chance of being handled locally.
Go to an emergency room rather than a dentist if swelling is spreading toward your eye or down into your neck, if you have any trouble breathing or swallowing, if you have a fever with facial swelling, or if bleeding from the mouth will not stop under steady pressure.
If nothing nearby can fit you in, search by distance from where you are at dentist directory.
