Your Lubbock dentist for conservative, comprehensive family care.

30 years of trusted family dentistry in West Texas

Dr. J. Scott Mahaney

Dr. Mahaney is a Lubbock native. He attended Coronado High School, Lubbock Christian University, and later graduated dental school from the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. He has been practicing dentistry in Lubbock since 1996.

Since then, Dr. Mahaney has focused on building a family practice that provides comprehensive dental care with service and trust. He believes building relationships with patients begins with listening carefully, treating each person with compassion, and delivering the highest standard of care. He and his staff work hard to build connection with his patients, and many have become life-long friends.

Throughout his career, Dr. Mahaney has committed to serving others both locally and around the world. He has participated in dental mission trips across Africa, South America and Central America, providing much needed care to under severed communities. Today, he continues that passion for service at Lubbock Impact Dental Clinic where he volunteers to make dental care accessible to those in need in his hometown. 

Dr. Mahaney is an avid outdoorsman who enjoys hunting, fishing, and golfing. He treasures time spent with his family and especially enjoys being a grandfather to his two granddaughters. He and his wife, Kelly, a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, are grateful to call the Lubbock community ‘home’.

A commitment to compassionate care in Lubbock

Dr. Tyler Misko

Dr. Misko is a dedicated general dentist with a passion for providing comprehensive, patient-centered care. Originally from Minnesota, he earned his undergraduate degree from Winona State University before continuing his education at the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry.

Prior to dental school, Dr. Misko worked in a dental laboratory, where he developed a strong foundation in dental craftsmanship and attention to detail, skills that continue to enhance his clinical work today. He enjoys all aspects of general dentistry and is committed to helping patients achieve healthy, confident smiles through personalized treatment.

Outside of the office, Dr. Misko enjoys spending time with his wife and their two dogs. In his free time, you can often find him on the golf course, playing pickleball, or traveling to new destinations.

Preventative care

Staying ahead of dental problems is always easier, and less costly, than treating them after the fact. Our preventive services, including cleanings, periodontal care, oral cancer screenings, fluoride, and sealants, are designed to keep your smile healthy for the long haul. We take the time to explain what we find and give you straightforward options, so you leave every visit informed and confident.

Teeth whitening

A brighter smile can make a real difference in how you look and feel, and our take-home whitening is one of the most effective ways to get there. We provide custom-fitted trays and professional-grade whitening gel so you can whiten on your own schedule, at your own pace. If you have questions about which option is right for you, we are happy to walk you through it at your next visit.

Restorative dentistry

Whether you need a filling, a crown, a bridge, or a full or partial denture, our restorative services are focused on bringing your smile back to full function and natural appearance. Dr. Mahaney and Dr. Misko take a conservative approach, restoring only what needs to be restored, and doing it with the quality and craftsmanship that lasts. We also receive referrals from other providers in the area for restorative treatment, a reflection of the trust the Lubbock dental community places in our care.

What makes us different

Scott Mahaney DDS PA, we have spent nearly three decades doing things the way we believe they should be done: getting to know our patients, delivering conservative and comprehensive care, and running an office where your time is genuinely respected. From the moment you walk in, you will notice the difference: a team that knows your name, appointments that start when they are supposed to, and a doctor who explains your options clearly before treatment ever begins.

Appointments that run on time

We know your schedule matters. Our team takes pride in staying on time so you can get in, get great care, and get back to your day without a long wait.

A long-tenured team you will recognize

Several members of our team have been with the practice for 15 or more years. That kind of consistency means you are always greeted by a familiar face that already knows you and your family.

Conservative, comprehensive care

We believe in doing what is necessary and doing it well. Our approach is to present your options honestly, recommend only what truly serves your health, and deliver treatment with quality that lasts.
