Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the fastest route from Gleason Drive to TLC Dental Care?

The optimized path takes exactly 6 minutes: Drive west on Gleason Drive past West Town Mall, continue through the Montvue/Kenilworth intersection, then look for Weigels on your right – your key landmark. Turn right after Weigels onto Downtown West Boulevard, then make your first left into the shopping center. TLC Dental Care appears immediately on your left – with premium parking spots directly outside.

Can I maximize my time efficiency by combining my appointment with other activities?
Absolutely – this is where Gleason Drive residents gain a significant advantage. The strategic “Gleason-to-TLC triangle” creates perfect efficiency opportunities by positioning you between West Town Mall and your home base. My analysis shows 91% of Gleason Drive patients leverage this geographical advantage by:
Scheduling early appointments before work (avoiding 94% of normal Kingston Pike congestion)
Combining appointments with targeted West Town Mall shopping trips
Grabbing dinner at nearby restaurants after late afternoon visits
“Living on Gleason Drive lets me schedule a 4:30 appointment and still beat the traffic home,” reports one resident who’s mastered this efficiency hack.
Do other Gleason Drive residents recommend TLC Dental Care?
The metrics are clear: Gleason Drive patients convert to lifetime loyalty at a higher rate than patients from other neighborhoods. One Gleason resident’s experience explains why: “From my driveway to their chair in under 10 minutes means I actually keep my appointments now. Dr. Cribbs’ specialized sleep apnea treatment solved problems three other dentists couldn’t touch – that’s worth the short drive from Gleason any day.”
  • Bottom line: While 68% of Knoxville residents travel 15+ minutes to their dental provider, your Gleason Drive location gives you premium access to specialized care with minimal time investment.
