We’re so glad you’ve found My Family Dentistry, proudly serving patients in Powell and Knoxville TN!
My Family Dentistry is unique among local dentists: we practice a comfortable dentistry approach to dental services. If you experience anxiety when going to the dentist, finding the right provider can be tricky. Dr. Mullins practices “comfortable dentistry” and is here to put you at ease.
The atmosphere of the office and spa-like relaxation treatments are a key element in comfortable dentistry, because they both help distract the patient from anxiety, and stimulate the senses in a positive way. The paraffin hand treatments, for example, serve a very specific purpose. As Dr. Mullins says, “Stimulating the hand actually decreases pain receptors in the mouth, so if there is discomfort, they are less likely to feel it.”
Dr. Wesley Mullins and his team create casual, yet professional office environment that helps patients become more relaxed and confident before the procedure. We are providers for Delta Dental Premier, Humana and Cigna insurance. We accept most other dental insurances, but it’s always good to call us to confirm.

Advanced dental technology for better dentistry is an idea that Dr. Wes Mullins has taken to heart, and you can find evidence of it in every corner of his offices. Below, read more about the cutting-edge technology that you can find at My Family Dentistry!
Advanced Dental Technology Examples:
Intra-Oral Camera
We want you to be a fully informed participant in every dental decision, and the Intra-Oral Camera is one of our most important tools in making that possible. This amazing device is a miniature video camera that displays close-up images of the inside of your mouth, so you can see for yourself what work needs to be done and which teeth are doing fine.
Digital Radiography
With digital radiography, an image is taken of your mouth with a digital sensor and directly downloaded into a computer, making it immediately available. This method means that the patient is exposed to 75% less radiation than with conventional x-rays. Also, there is no waiting for images to develop, and no chemical waste to pollute the environment.
Chartless Office with Chair-Side Computers
Chartless Office with Chair-Side ComputersNo more unclear, inefficient writing in charts – we use computers at each exam station to record your information as quickly and accurately as possible
Digital Camera
We use a digital camera to take high-quality pictures of your smile, giving you excellent “before” and “after” photos to show off your new look.
Sterilization Center
The Sterilization Center located in heart of our facility allows us to clean, sterilize, and store our instruments in the most efficient and hygienic manner possible.
Employing advanced dental technology for our patients is just one of the ways that we at My Family Dentistry are working to make your next dentist visit a better experience. We hope to meet you soon so you can experience our work for yourself!
