If you are using xinetd, you can alternatively use chkconfig to
conveniently enable and disable tftp service.  Keep in mind that this
only works while xinetd is running.

chkconfig tftpd off
chkconfig tftpd on

However, why don't you use TCP wrappers and only allow access to the
tftpd port from your local subnet?  I think iptables can do this too.
