Dr. Lane

Dr. Lane grew up in the Rocky Mountains of northern Utah. There he developed a great love for the outdoors. Most of his free time was spent in the mountains hiking, hunting, fishing, camping, skiing, and riding motorcycles. After graduating from Utah State University with a finance degree, he attended Indiana University School of Dentistry. There he graduated as a Doctor of Dental Surgery, DDS. During this time, he was trained in all areas of dentistry including pediatrics, endodontics, surgery, implants, prosthodontics, and public health. 


He continues that education by taking courses regularly to improve and provide the best care possible. He would argue that an equally profound accomplishment during this time was meeting and marrying his wife, Rachel. They have two small boys and a black lab that keep them on their toes. One of Dr. Lane’s most enjoyable dental trips was traveling to the Dominican Republic where he placed free dental implants for those without access to care. He is a member of the ADA (American Dental Association), AGD (Academy of General Dentistry), and the AACA (American Academy of Clear Aligners), and past member of the IDIA (International Dental Implant Association). 


Dr. Lane has always had a desire to work in a career where he feels he is making a difference. As a dentist, he gets to do this every day, whether it is helping a young child through their first appointment, or showing an adult that a dental visit can be much more pleasant than a past experience. Dr. Lane loves when patients comment that they just had the best dental appointment they have ever had!

Alex Voda

Hey I’m Rayleigh. I’m a dental assistant here at Knox county dental! I was born and raised here in Knoxville TN. I graduated from Powell high school in 2024 and from there I went to Tennessee school of applied technology (TCAT) and graduated in 2025 with my RDA license! 


I’ve been working here at Knox County dental ever since!  In my free time you can always find me out on a hike with my fiancé or spending time with my family and friends ! What inspired me to become a dental assistant was when I got braces as a teenager it really sparked an interest with me. I saw how it brought me confidence of having a pretty smile and I knew I wanted to help others feel just as confident with their own smile!
