Dr. Nikita McDaniel takes a gentle, compassionate approach to dentistry that puts her patients at ease when they come to her office. Building up life-long relationships with her patients and imparting in them an appreciation for oral health is her passion and has been since she took over the practice for Dr. Alan Foster in 2018. After becoming the owner of the practice in 2022, Dr. McDaniel’s goal each day has been to treat the community of Blue Springs with warmth and top-quality dentistry.

Dr. McDaniel graduated from Saint Louis University with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. She then attended the University of Missouri Kansas City School of Dentistry to earn her Doctor of Dental Surgery. She completed additional advanced training in implant dentistry, complex restorative care, oral surgery, and cosmetic dentistry through a one-year Advanced Education in General Dentistry program. She has also completed her Invisalign and laser treatment certifications. Today, as an advocate for lifelong learning, Dr. McDaniel attends continuing education courses each year through the Dawson Academy. She is also an active member of the Missouri Dental Association, the Greater Kansas City Dental Society, the American Dental Association, and the Academy of General Dentistry.
