PATIENT REVIEWS

Teeth are not forever, especially to a “grinder”. So in finding Cavka Dental, I consider it a great blessing.   This place provided a “personal” interest knowing my struggles.  My prior experience with another Dental provider was a total “nickel and dime” place.  I needed a crown replaced asap and basically had to purchase a Bank for payment!  Not here….talk about personalble…..  Not only was my initial visit all inclusive, new service, teeth observation, xrays, AND cleaning!!!….but they walked me through some serious observations that had been noted during the checkup and provided fair (and clearly understandable) means of getting those items repaired.  Please take a moment and contact them for your “teeth needs”!    BTW…..I was able to sell the Bank….because, this place actually cares about YOU!…that is about me.  🙂

Dr Cavka and her staff are make an amazing team. Dr Cavka provides the best dentistry I have experienced in years. She is extremely gentle and makes sure that her patient is comfortable during the appointment. I really appreciate the billing process. All expenses are discussed before any work is done and it is very well understood what your benefits cover and what any out of pocket cost will be. No surprises. The professionals that work there are all very personable and courteous. I felt at ease on my first visit right away. State of the art equipment as well.

FYI:  I have no fears of going to the dentist…ever.  I WILL say, I have had negative experiences in the past.  I recently had to have a crown replaced, and I want to share what a POSITIVE ADVENTURE it was!!  The staff at Cavka Dental Center made sure 100% of the time that all was good.  All was GREAT!!  It took just minutes to get my tooth fixed, vs the MONTHS it was (and needlessly painful) from the original dentist from many years ago.  Have no fear, Cavka Dental Center truly cares!!

Dr. Cavka and her team are truly amazing. She had helped transform my smile into the one I’ve always wanted & therefore made me feel so much more comfortable with my self. I see dr. Cavka for all my dental care needs -I enjoy her office so much because I know I am always in good hands. She doesn’t mind discussing treatment plans and going over all the options which is great to feel included in something you feel like you have no control over. Unlike my previous dentist, she is so flexible and available for her patients whenever you need her -even on her days off she goes out of her way to help! Additionally, her team is just as amazing & they all make you look forward (vs nervous) going to the dentist!

I have been with Cavka Dental Center for about 4 years. I have never been in such an incredible professional Dental environment but still make you feel like family or friend. Dr. Cavka and staff has always gone the extra mile for me. I have had several obsticals that would had delayed or stop me from even completing my treatment and they still managed to accommodate me and even managed to help me in many ways unimaginable. Because of Dr. Cavka and staff I have my smile back. I highly recommend this office. They will bring your smile back.

Dr. Cavka and her team are absolutely amazing! I initially reached out to Dr. Cavka for a consult to see what the best fit would be to help transform my smile into the most perfect one–she took a lot of time to comfort me into choosing the best option for me. I think it’s so important to be compassionate as for most patients (and me personally) this was such a scary process, choosing and trusting someone to transform something as delicate as your smile. Throughout every step of the process dr. Cavka and her team were so patient and thorough to make sure I felt comfortable and confident with my decision and absolutely loved my final smile without any hesitation. I am so happy and beyond grateful for the amazing work Dr. Cavka does and look forward to having her maintain my smile looking this amazing forever!

My first trip to Cavka was because I was having toothache pains. They got me in the same day I called. They have impeccable covid parameters in place and they were so polite and sweet. I really enjoyed my trip to the dentist, which I don’t say often. My second trip to Cavka was for a cleaning. Claire was awesome. I was in and out in 40 minutes. She answered all of my questions and scheduled my next appointment right from the exam room. Love this place and will tell all of my family and friends about it.

With having a bad experience with another dental office I think that I finally found the perfect place to stay at. I must say my hygienist was amazing! She answered all my questions (which was a lot) and made me feel real comfortable. So far it has been a great experience and I’m excited to see Dr. Cavka’s work with getting my teeth back on track.

After a horrid and very costly experience at Aspen dental. My oral surgeon Dr. Michael Fetner went above and beyond and referred me to Cavka Dental. I first spoke to her office manager Dawn who immediately assured me that things would be just fine. Knowing they knew I had a complicated case I instantly felt a relief of anxiety. On my first appointment I got to meet some other members of Dr. Cavka’s team, and I honestly have to say they are the nicest people I’ve experienced in a dentistry. Unlike Aspen they will call you back promptly. Now onto Dr Cavka, she is by far the nicest dentist that I have ever met. She took on a complex problem without hesitation and is constantly concerned with her patient care and comfort. I would just like to thank each and everyone of you all for your help and support! You have a patient for life.

I was impressed from the moment I walked in the door; I went to two different dental offices to get a second opinion for a crown that was loose. I was basically told the same information; but the way it was presented to me at Dr. Cavka office was nothing short of amazing. I explained to her all the events I had planned in the coming weeks; and she was aware I didn’t want to attend my events in my current situation. She also explained she didn’t want my procedure to be a temporary fix. She came up with a solution that worked for the both of us. I had to make a choice between an implant or partial; I watched a mini video outlining the difference between an implant and a partial. It didn’t stop their she brought in visuals so I could see what the partial would look like, and she took pictures of my teeth on her iPad so I could see exactly what was going on with my teeth. I was in awe of the experience from Dr. Cavka and her staff. There’s a lot more I can say about the awesome experience I received; I will definitely be going back.

Dr. Cavka is very professional and personable. She provides a positive and anxiety free environment, which can be hard to do being a dentist. Her employees are engaging and polite. Riley is fantastic. She does a great job in making sure you are comfortable and takes great care of your teeth. She is the best part of our visits to the dentist.

Absolutely excellent dental center. I switched here from my previous dentist because I wanted a place with extended hours (evenings, Saturdays). Little did I know how much I would love the dentist and her staff. They are fun, knowledgeable, thorough, and quick. I’d had increasing sensitivity in one part of my mouth for quite some time. Dr. Cavka diagnosed my issue, referred me for a root canal, and did a beautiful crown. After a few weeks, my sensitivity is now completely gone. After years of suffering, I am thrilled! A huge thanks goes to her and her efficient team. No more switching for me. I’ve found my permanent dentist!

An absolute wonderful place! I ran into a problem with insurance coverage during the initial visit. Dr. Cavka took time out of her busy schedule to sit with my 75 year young mother to explain the red tape with her insurance coverage. She is very caring and accommodating and provide excellent care in every aspect. I would give a 10 if I could. Riley, the hygienist, also deserves a 10/ Thank you for your patience. The staff members is very personable and helpful. Everyone made it easy to be in a dentist’s office. Thank you.

I’ve been coming here for about 2 years I believe and have always been pleased after leaving. I recently got upset with the office over something that was completely my fault and not theirs. I was rude to them and they could’ve easily been rude back or just ignored me but the office staff, including the manager Nicole and Dr. Cavka were so professional and understanding. They thoroughly explained to me why my situation was the way it was. They also offered me a way to try and rectify the situation. I’m regretful that I was so quick to get upset because the staff has always been nice, even when I was not so nice. Not only do I recommend them for their professionalism but also for their great dental work.

I have had a great experience at Cavka Dental. Just had another cleaning today. I have been going to this office for two years this month. All hygienists have done a great job and you don’t feel like that very sore feeling after a cleaning. The denstists don’t push for a big procedure or fill if it’s not absolutely necessary. We have been monitoring one tooth that may have needed a crown after my first appointment. Two years later my tooth is much better shape and still no crowns or fillings necessary. I recommend Cavka Dental to my friends and family all the time.

I hadn’t been to the dentist in years because I was so afraid of them. I finally decided that I needed to find one and I’m so glad I found Cavka Dental. The entire staff is welcoming and their hours are great. Dr. Cavka and Riley, my hygienist, were wonderful! They both were very understanding and open. Riley explained everything as she went when taking x-rays and doing the cleaning and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. I left that office less afraid of dentists than when I walked in and I would recommend them to anyone.

Having just relocated to the area, one of my priorities was to find a new dentist. I received a flier in the mail from Cavka Dental Center and checked out their reviews before making an appointment. After having my first appointment, all I can say is Cavka Dental Center is great. I was extremely impressed with the professionalism displayed by the entire staff. The hygienist Riley took the time to explain everything that she was doing and did a fantastic job of cleaning my teeth. Dr. Cavka is so nice and was very thorough, making recommendations regarding a treatment plan. I highly recommend Cavka Dental Center to anyone looking for a new dentist!

I’ve been going to Cavka for years now, and I leave satisfied and in such a good mood EVERY time. The staff, dentist, dental assistants, & hygienists are all amazing & incredibly friendly. This office runs smoothly and efficiently. They are quick to seat you, treat you, and checking you out. I will continue going to this office as long as possible. I recommend this Dental office over any other in Jacksonville!

I have been to Dr Cavka’s office 3 times, for cleaning and for root canal and permanent crown placement. I cannot even tell which tooth was replaced with a crown because it feels, and looks, so natural ! . I am most impressed with the CLEAN , professional office that is decorated attractively and with its high-tech equipment. Dr Cavka herself, the front desk staff and hygienists are always pleasant, professional and responsive to the customer’s slightest request or concern. The front desk staff always sends reminder texts for appointments and they respond to your EMAILS promptly. What more can I say??

I moved to Jax in 2002 and been to a few dental centers. I started going to Dr. Cavka’s center since last year – have to say – this is the best dentist office I had ever been to. Dr. Cavka and her staff are highly professional, friendly and very efficient. They never made me wait, always attend on time get the cleanings and checkups done without waste of any time. They always provide the estimates in writing and never any surprises. I used to joke with my doctors when they say “good seeing you” by saying “sorry I can’t say the same to you”. But, Dr. Cavka’s center is an exception, thou it’s a dentist place 🙂 I feel good going and getting the necessary care.

I’m so grateful to have found such a patient and caring staff. I was really nervous that there would be a lot of pain and that my new smile would look fake..but I’m glad to report I was wrong. Not only did the staff make me comfortable but my smile looks beautiful but natural. I couldn’t be happier. I’m so glad I can finally smile again. thanks for taking my fears and self consciousness away and replacing it with confidence. I highly recommend you try Cavka for all your dental needs!!!!!!

Hands down best dental care I could have asked for. I did research on my procedure and costs so when they were presented up front with my treatment plan there were no surprises. Sharena and Jessica were both kind and thoroughly explained each process and timeline expectations, very transparent. I’ll be honest… I hadn’t seen a dentist in years due to some inner shame. A violent ex chipped multiple front teeth years ago and you can imagine how I felt going to job interviews, doing meetings, outings back when the world was open etc. I found this place purely through reviews and shared this story with the person who scheduled my first appt on the phone (in tears actually) and she reassured me that I would be well taken care of. The check-in process was very safe, and the time it took to get my permanent crowns molded and temporary crowns placed was SUPER quick. Dr. Cavka (and everyone on her team!) is efficient and very knowledgeable and I plan to take my daughter here as well because I trust we will feel safe and welcomed. I can’t thank you all enough for helping me start to get my smile back.

I’ve been a patient of Cavka Dental Center for over a year and while I rarely write reviews I felt this one warranted. My visit today was for a 6 month checkup wIth x-rays and cleaning. Clare is gentle and professional and explained every step taken during my visit. After my x-rays were completed Dr. Cavka reviewed then came in to discuss and identify similarities and differences since the last record. I appreciate the safety precautions the staff is taking and they are ALWAYS helpful and friendly!!!

Thanks to Cavka Dental team my 68 year old teeth are still in my mouth. Dr. Cavka has been responsible for my dental health since I moved to Florida in 2010. She has fixed many of my problem teeth with crowns that look and feel better than my original teeth. Her team manages my overall dental health with routine appointments for cleaning and exams. I will never need to go to dentures because of the care I receive. At 68 years old the only teeth I’m missing are two of my wisdom teeth otherwise I still have a mouthful. There is never a feeling of being pushed into any additional services that I don’t want or need. Love all the ladies that work there. I always look forward to going to the dentist.

Dr. Cavka changed my life with my new smile! I’ve had many dental problems throughout my life, I came to a point where at the age of 48 I was made to believe by other dentists that my only option was a removable dentures, both for my top and bottom teeth. I was not willing to accept this solution and spent many years suffering through awful tooth aches until I was referred to Cavka Dental Center. Even though my case was extremely complex Dr. Cavka accepted me as a patient and provided me with many solutions, not just a removable dentures as many other dentist suggested prior to Dr. Cavka. With Dr. Cavka’s amazing work I now have permanent implants that not only improved my appearance but most importantly relieved all my pain. I highly recommend this office to anyone because Dr. Cavka is the best dentist and her staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and make sure you are taken of at every visit.

For the best dental care and smile makeover in Jacksonville, look no further than Cavka Dental Center. In 2017, I was very unhappy with my previous dentist whom I had been a patient of for over 10 years. I had lost several teeth over those years and was very unhappy with both my bite and my smile. Low and behold, in steps Dr. Aida Cavka of Cavka Dental Center and Dr. Michael Fetner of Fetner and Hartigan. They both transformed my smile and I am now have the ability to enjoy all foods again. In addition, Dr. Cavka has the most friendly staff in town. Thank you so much Dr. Aida Cavka and Dr. Michael Fetner.

This office is just awesome! From the front office staff to the dentist. My husband recently had an awful experience at another dental office (Aspen Dental on Blanding Blvd). I called Cavka and they got him the same day to take a look at the work that was done. Saying Aspen botched his procedure is being very kind. He is in the process of getting new implants through Cavka Dental and the difference is night and day! Not only do they look a thousand times better then expected, but they are compassionate to his prior experience and are doing everything to help him/us through the process. I do have to give a huge THANK YOU to Dawn, she is absolutely wonderful! Cavka Dental is going to be our new family dentist for life. Thank you again to all the staff that make this such an awesome office

We recently moved here from South Florida and after visiting couple of top rated dentist in the area we were deeply disappointed. From the first time I went to Cavka Dental Center, I knew I had found my family’s new dentist for life! From beginning to end, my experience at Cavka Dental Center was exceptional. The staff was incredibly warm, knowledgeable and made my care their highest priority. Dr. Cavka is a caring, honest and compassionate dentist who takes her time with each patient and explains every step of the oral procedure you are having. The office is immaculate, very friendly and happy environment. Thank you Cavka Dental Center for all that you do and for all the wonderful care you provide your patients.

Clean, professional, caring, and fun. The staff is excited to help, really easy to communicate with, and they’re always smiling! It makes a pleasant experience going to the office. On top of that, the dental care is excellent. Dr. Cavka is very knowledgeable and her hygienists are thorough. You feel like you are person being cared for there, not a number they are pumping out. Would highly recommend.

I am a regular patient of Dr. Cavka and her staff for about 3 years now. They are all very knowledgeable, professional and friendly.  Quite frankly, my teeth were a mess when I started seeing them. All my dental issues were addressed, while at the same time, my insurance was utilized fully to minimize the impact on my wallet. Their location on St. Johns Bluff Rd. is very convenient. I have been quite happy with dental care I have received there and look forward to my next check up.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Cavka and her team!! I have been going to Cavka Dental since it opened and have never had a bad experience, which is impressive as I have unfortunately required quite a bit of dental work. The clinic is beautiful, the staff helpful, communication excellent, and the team extremely efficient and thorough. Recently, I made the decision to pursue crown veneers. I did a lot of research and coordinated Dr. Cavka who patiently listened, answered my long list of questions, and addressed any concerns that I had. Telling you I was nervous through the process is an understatement, I have had some bad experiences with dentists prior to becoming a patient at Cavka Dental and those are hard to shake. Dr. Cavka talked me though the whole process, step by step, and eased my anxiety every step of the way. She worked fast and efficiently, minimizing my discomfort throughout the entire process. Now, I LOVE my smile!! Dr. Cavka did an AMAZING job! She put the time and energy into making it perfect, paying attention to the smallest detail. It looks natural and has really skyrocketed my confidence. If you are looking for a good dentist to take care of you, whether for a smile uprgrade or for routine work, Cavka Dental is the place to go! I’m a patient for life!

I went to my first appointment with the Cavka Dental Center today and I was very satisfied with my visit. I was encouraged to fill out the paperwork online before my initial visit to cut down on wait time in the waiting room and possible exposure to the COVID-19 virus. When I arrived at the parking lot I called informing the front I was there and they immediately asked me to go in the office where all the staff were wearing masks. With in a few minutes I was taken by the very polite dental hygienist who proceeded to take X-rays while keeping me informed of what she was doing at all times. She then started working on my teeth while the doctor was finishing up with her last patient. Doctor came and explained to me the results of my X-rays, the problem areas she found and her recommendation in a professional yet using understandable (not big fancy textbook) words. When I hear dentist I hear drilling in the background, but I must say any discomfort in my visit was minimal which made my visit all the more enjoyable so I really would recommend Cavka Dental Center to anyone.

Dr. Cavka is amazing. She is both skilled and kind. The office is clean AND pretty, and literally every person working there is professional and makes you feel like you’re the only person they’ve talked to all day. Also, I had to get two fillings here last year. One of them turned out less than ideal (something Dr. Cavka says rarely happens but I usually have poor luck lol) and she fixed it free of charge!! I am so grateful. They also dealt with me extremely graciously when I sent them a not so nice email about it. I have been coming here for almost a year and will continue to do so as long as I live in Jax!!! Thank you Cavka Dental Center – y’all are the best!!

If you are looking for a kind, caring and compassionate dentist that has your best interest at heart Dr. Cavka is the one for you. Her and her staff are amazing! They offer evening appointments which allow me to not always have to take off work for a cleaning. The office is clean, inviting, state of the art, and they provide Wi-Fi while you are waiting. I have had a range of issues such as candida, mouth ulcers and burning mouth syndrome and they have been so supportive through my frustration of dealing with these oral problems. I just had my first cleaning in over a year (I could not have the cleaning while I had candida) and it went so smoothly and Clare did an excellent job. Dawn is so sweet and she has shared her knowledge with me of different things that could help my symptoms, I tried them and they did! Dr. Cavka was also able to tweak my retainer and adjust it so it does not hit the ulcer when I put it in. When I left I felt like my mouth had experienced a spa day and I have never felt that way leaving the dentist before. I am a Navy wife and have seen many dentist over the years and used to get anxious about going to appointments. With Dr. Cavka and her staff I look forward to seeing them and know my concerns will be addressed and my oral health is in good hands. Thank you for your kindness – Jenny
