About Your Dentist

Dr. Gneiting is excited to be back in Texas, as he considers himself an adopted Texan.  It did not take long for Dr. Gneiting to fall in love with Texas and its people when he began working in Waco, TX shortly after graduating from dental school.  With the ample fishing, hunting, and love of sports he feels right at home.  Dr. Gneiting grew up raising grain and potatoes on an Idaho farm and is constantly looking for a way to satisfy his farming instincts.

For many people, going to the dentist can be very unsettling.  Dr. Gneiting understands this and has treated many nervous patients before.  He has been certified by the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation to perform sedation on patients that would otherwise not be able to get the dental work they need.  He understands that most of the time the fear is caused by an event many years previous and that it is his job to regain the trust of the patient.  In order to accomplish as much work as possible and reduce the number of visits to the dental office, Dr. Gneiting has paired his sedation training with advanced levels of root canal training, implant placement, and full mouth reconstruction in order to provide all the services needed in a single visit.

Dr. Gneiting's biggest achievement in life has been to convince his wife to marry him. Nicole is his best support and encourages him to accomplish his goals. Together they have three children.

Dr. Hyatt has been fascinated by and passionate about dentistry since he shadowed his family dentist at age 14.  He continued to be drawn to the science and artistry of dental work through the personal experiences of having braces, fillings, and even a root canal when he was young.  His experiences were not traumatic but rather led to more personal confidence.  The excellent care and expertise that he experienced continues to inspire Dr. Hyatt to listen to patients and focus on developing his skills to provide top quality care that focuses on patient experience and health.  Central to Dr. Hyatt’s treatment philosophy is patient education and involvement.

Dr. Hyatt attended Northern Arizona and Arizona State Universities on scholarship pursuing multiple bachelor’s degrees in music education and medicinal biochemistry – graduating with a cumulative 4.2 GPA.  Dr. Hyatt received a DMD degree from the innovative Midwestern University Dental School in Arizona where he received various awards and honors.  Dr. Hyatt enjoyed the unique experience of completing advanced procedures under the direction of seasoned doctors while completing ten times the national average of dental procedures compared to students at other dental schools.

Dr. Hyatt is detail oriented and sets a high bar for himself, which is reflected in the functional longevity and aesthetics of his dental work.  He has completed multiple continuing education courses and currently participates in a study group from the prestigious Frank Spear Education program.  He continues to stay informed on the latest research-based products and techniques while using proven methods that he would trust for his own family.

Dr. Hyatt is lucky to be married to his beautiful sweetheart Siena, who is an accountant.  In his spare time, he enjoys carpentry, computer networking, and designing and enjoying sound systems. He is grateful to God for his life, family, friends, and educational opportunities.
