I can not say enough about my experience at Family Dentistry. Everyone from the office staff, receptionist Jill, dental assistant Lisa, and Dr. Phillips were kind, caring, and compassionate. I felt like I was family. They cater to cowards. I was not looking forward to having the dental work I needed. My visit was excellent. The dental assistant Lisa actually noticed and alerted the dentist to a problem not related to the procedure I was having. They both were so gentle, making sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure. (I love they have a bumper guard to help keep your mouth open). They explained everything they were doing and made sure I was pain-free. I would highly recommend everyone I had contact with. Thank you to each one of you for caring!

Dental visits can be a source of unease for many, regardless of whether you’re in for a routine cleaning or a more complex procedure. Your comfort level is unique to you. While sedation options are available, the true difference lies in a dental team that genuinely cares about your well-being.
Our approach to patient comfort goes above and beyond with:

Call 865-345-5129 to meet with our calming and soothing staff in Knoxville. You can also request an appointment.
We prioritize personalized care by training our staff to use the most effective patient treatment techniques. In addition, our dentists stay up-to-date with the latest knowledge and best practices through ongoing education opportunities. Our staff are encouraged to embody our patient care values during every appointment.
We understand that dental appointments can be nerve-wracking, so we make it a priority to address any concerns you may have. We can also offer breaks during your appointment if needed. You will never be rushed or pressured into a procedure that makes you uncomfortable. By listening to your needs, we can recommend treatments that will effectively treat your oral health concerns and improve your overall well-being.
If you feel anxious during your appointment, we can offer you laughing gas or oral sedation to help you relax. Laughing gas is a safe and effective form of sedation that you inhale through a mask. You’ll start to feel more at ease within a few minutes, and the effects wear off quickly after the mask is removed. Oral sedation is a small pill you take before you arrive. It gives you a deep sense of calm throughout your visit. However, you will need to arrange for a ride home.
