- Dental ExaminationI would like to thank you and your staff for the wonderful experiences me and my family have had. I have been seen and helped my you and every member of your staff. It is a very personal experience to have someone else’s hands in my mouth, and to not have a bad experience with anyone is truly remarkable. I think my favorite aspect of getting treated here, whether it is a routine cleaning and exam or getting through a crown from beginning to end is that I always get a thorough explanation of what the issue is, and usually a couple of different approaches on how to treat it and move forward. You and your staff are always patient and answer the many, many questions I have. I never feel like I’m being rushed out to get someone else in the chair. Thank you to everyone there for making me and my teeth feel cared for.

- Fluoride TreatmentDental insurance will typically cover almost all the cost of a cleaning. They still don’t usually cover fluoride treatments, but for a regular 6 month cleaning, they cover most of it. However, if you have gum disease, they may not offer you that same benefit.
- Fillings
- VeneersPorcelain veneers can transform almost any smile, and our patients love the life-changing. Veneers can correct dark staining, misshapen teeth, and uneven edges. They can improve years of chipping or even spacing between teeth. Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic coverings that are custom made for you and bonded to the front of your teeth to give you a whiter, more uniform smile, and a beautiful new look. Our veneers conserve as much tooth structure as possible and are stain resistant. You may want porcelain veneers that can restore the smile you had years ago, or give you a whole new look that you’ve always wanted. The first step is to set up a consultation at our Knoxville dental office. Dr. Nutting will address your concerns, find out exactly what you want to achieve, and formulate a custom plan so you’ll have a smile you can be proud of. Put the days of trying to smile without showing your teeth behind you! Call us today at (865) 588-5761.
- CrownsSo, what ends up happening, is that you (or your employer) pays $30 a month, which is $360 a year, for a $1000 benefit. So for signing up, you get basically get $640 to go toward dental care, if you need it. Only they aren’t going to pay 100% of anything, except maybe a cleaning. So lets say you need a crown. You pay half of the fee, and the insurance company pays half of the fee. This is typical. Only they come up with many reasons to deny you the privilege of using your coverage, for such things as...
- BridgesI have not always been the best dental patient and certainly not the bravest until I made the move to the dental office of Dr. Showalter. The friendly atmosphere and professionalism won me over immediately. Today, after taking over the practice one and a half years ago, Dr. Talia Nutting has continued this atmosphere. Her personality took over from Dr. Nick and she never missed a beat. She is not only interested in your dental health, she is interested in you. I think one of the smartest things she did when she took over the practice was to retain all of the staff. I think each of them are special and so very nice. I have had more contact with Debbie since I have had a number of new crowns, replacement crowns and bridges. Debbie certainly knows what she is doing and does it very well. We have spent so much time together that we have become good friends and I count that a plus. Another positive is that you see the same person for your cleaning. Suzie is another positive in this office. She keeps me on track with my flossing, brushing and water flossing without ever fussing at me. She just gets the point across and makes me want to do better and I believe it has improved my overall dental health. I also appreciated that Talia has brought some very sophisticated technology into her practice, such as that very SMART machine that helps make crowns. That is just wonderful.
- Dental BondingCosmetic bonding and cosmetic recontouring are appropriate when slight changes need to be made to the teeth. With bonding, we can add dimension, close small spaces or correct slight discolorations. Cosmetic recontouring involves smoothing irregularities to achieve a more uniform smile overall. These procedures can be completed together to make a series of minor improvements that can completely change the way you view your smile, for the better. Have questions? We’d be happy to answer them. Send us a message or give us a call today.

- BracesOn February 14, 2014 I gave myself the best Valentine’s Day gift: a gap free smile! The gap between my front teeth had bothered me for years, but something else always seemed to push this down on my list of things to do. I went to Nutting Comprehensive Dentistry for a consultation, and Talia assured me that Six Month Smiles could fix that gap and give me the smile I always wanted. Emily and Talia put braces on my teeth February 14. Emily and Talia were enthusiastic and upbeat during every visit, and my teeth moved to their new, beautiful location. My braces were removed on May 29, 2014. I am so pleased with the results and personal service I received, and I recommend Nutting Comprehensive Dentistry to anyone who wants a smile that looks fantastic!
