Trinity Health Ministries, Inc. Dental Clinic 1127 E. Lamar Alexander Parkway Maryville, TN 37804 (865) 681-0770 FAX (865) 681-0870 Clinic Director:  Ben Briley, DDS
Our Mission is to follow Christ's command to provide physical, emotional, and spiritual care to members of our community who are unable to access these services through traditional channels.      Clinic Hours 8 am - 5 pm Monday & Tuesday By appointment
Trinity Dental Clinic focuses on basic dental care for low income / uninsured / under-served adults.  Our emphasis is on emergency and urgent treatment needs.  We are normally open two days a week with one dentist.  Therefore, we may not be able to treat all qualifying patients promptly who qualify for care.  We do our best to see patients as soon as possible.  At this time, our treatment options include pulling teeth and cleaning teeth as time and resources allow.  Please note that TDC is not intended to take the place of routine dental care.  Instead, TDC is meant to be a temporary measure to help the under served until they can obtain care in the traditional dental community. Eligibility Criteria: Blount County Residents who have the following documents qualify: Picture ID Proof of residence, such as Utility Bill, Bank statement, tax bill, etc... One of the following documents: Food Stamp Card Blount Memorial Good Samaritan Clinic Card Public Housing Voucher Supplemental Security Income (SSI) letter Blount County Health Dept. Appointments will be made as space is available for patients who qualify. Trinity Dental Clinic is located at: 1127 E. Lamar Alexander Parkway (just past Blount Memorial Hospital) Maryville, TN 37804	We chose the name 'Trinity' because we believe in the essential emphasis on Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Also, it has another three-fold meaning to us of Christian Faith, Health Care, and Community Service. Our mission statement reflects another triad - physical, emotional and spiritual care - which emphasizes the importance of wholistic care. Trinity Health Ministries is a Christian, non-profit, non-denominational organization dedicated to meet the health needs of the under served of Blount County.   Background: Trinty began as a vision of Christian nurses who saw a need for non-traditional healthcare among the needy.  Multiple health care surveys were done which corroborated this belief and showed the greatest need to be dentisry.  Follow-up meetings were done with other Christian Community leaders and healthcare providers.  In April 2006, Trinity Dental Clinic opened for patient care.
