Dr. Knowles’s first job was for his orthodontist while in high school. It was there he witnessed the positive impact that a beautiful, healthy smile has on a person’s outlook. To him, orthodontics is much more than just straightening the teeth; it is about cultivating confidence through their smile. He considers it an honor to provide orthodontic treatment to his patients and get to know them and their families on a personal level. He has a commitment to excellence and strives to deliver the highest-quality care to each person by staying on the cutting-edge of technology and individualizing treatment.
Dr. Knowles was born in Tyler, Texas, went to high school in Arlington, and then graduated from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth with a Bachelor of Science in biochemistry. Dr. Knowles married his high school sweetheart, Katherine, before moving to Houston to attend The University of Texas Dental Branch (DDS) and an additional 2+ years’ specialty training in orthodontics (MSD), where he also earned a master’s in dentistry. He then gained valuable experience working in a private practice in the greater Houston area before moving to central Texas.
