I have been a patient of Dr. Caven’s for about 8 years now. He and his staff are the best!! I had some extensive work done awhile ago, Dr. Caven made that experience very pleasant and my teeth turned out beautifully! He is a true perfectionist and very kind!! I went for a cleaning yesterday with Christine, she was great! His whole staff is also very knowledgeable, professional and so nice! I can honestly say, I always look forward to my dental visits with Dr. Richard Caven and his great team!! I highly recommend Dr. Caven!!
Dr. Caven is a true artist when it comes to teeth - and let’s be honest, we want people to look at our teeth and see beauty. His hygienist Christine has over 30 years experience and I honestly love our conversations every visit. They alter my plan of care when needed and really stay on top of my issues. Dr. Caven has the latest technology and tools to make my cleanings fast, efficient, pain free and my teeth look better than they have in years. I highly recommend Dr. Caven and his team!
Caven Dental Group is the best there is. I’ve been with them for years now and I have always been extremely satisfied. Richard Caven is a master at his craft and yet he does all of the small things like calling and checking in on you after even a minor procedure. And dental hygienist Callie is amazing… she’s friendly, detail oriented, and always gives great advice. The Caven team will make you feel at home. The best there is!
Absolute Professionalism from walk in to check out. Dr, Caven and Callie always go out of their way to explain everything they do and why it’s needed. Sometimes I think Callie cares more about my teeth than I do! Couldn’t recommend them more.
