Our Practice

A family practice,
in every sense.

Some dental offices change names every few years. This one has had the same one over its door since 2000 — and the same family behind it. Dr. Jeremy Davey opened the practice in Naples the year he and his wife Kimberly settled here; she has run the business side of the office from day one. Several of the people who greet you have worked alongside them for ten, fifteen, twenty years. Many patients have been coming just as long.

Where it started

Dr. Davey grew up in Lakeland, Florida. He studied biology at James Madison University, earned his Doctorate in Dental Medicine at Boston University's Goldman School of Dental Medicine in 1997, and practiced for three years before coming home to Southwest Florida to build something of his own.

What he built is deliberately old-fashioned in one way only: one dentist, one team, treating whole families — grandparents, parents, and children, often all three.

We listen first, explain everything, and never recommend treatment you don't need. That's the whole philosophy.

How the practice works

Evidence-based dentistry at an unhurried pace. Your exam is thorough, your options are explained in plain language, and your treatment plan is built around your health and your budget — not a quota.

Dr. Davey spends part of every year in continuing-education seminars, study clubs, and workshops, and brings back only what genuinely serves his patients. Since 2011, the first year the list existed, his peers have named him a Top Dentist in Gulfshore Life's annual peer-reviewed survey — every single year.

Beyond the chair

In the community

The team volunteers with the Neighborhood Health Clinic and the Florida Mission of Mercy, providing dental care for neighbors who couldn't otherwise afford it.

Off duty

Dr. Davey swims with a masters team and spends his time outdoors — boating, fishing, hiking, and camping with Kimberly and their two sons.

If you're looking for a dentist your whole family can keep for decades, that is precisely what this practice was built to be.

for every smile.

From routine cleanings to full smile transformations — all under one roof in Naples.

The Care Index

Every treatment, explained in plain language.

We believe an informed patient makes better decisions — so before you ever sit in the chair, here is what each treatment actually involves, in words, not jargon.

Keeping teeth healthy

The visits that prevent the expensive ones.

A professional cleaning removes the hardened plaque a toothbrush can't, while the exam checks every tooth, your gums, and your bite. Caught early, most dental problems are small, painless, and inexpensive to fix — which is exactly the point of coming in twice a year.

When gum disease gets a head start, a standard cleaning isn't enough. Scaling and root planing is a deeper, careful cleaning below the gumline that removes the buildup causing inflammation, giving your gums the clean surface they need to reattach and heal.

The chewing surfaces of back teeth are full of tiny grooves that trap food and defeat even good brushing. A sealant is a thin protective coating that flows into those grooves and hardens — one quick, painless visit that keeps decay out for years. Especially valuable for kids' new molars.

A quiet but important part of every exam: a careful check of your tongue, cheeks, palate, and throat for anything unusual. Oral cancers are highly treatable when found early, and this screening takes only minutes.

Jaw pain, morning headaches, and worn-down teeth often trace back to grinding or clenching at night. A custom-fitted appliance cushions your bite while you sleep, protecting your teeth and letting the jaw joint rest.

Repairing & restoring

When a tooth needs help, done so it lasts.

Cavities are removed and restored with composite material shaded to match the tooth around it — strong, mercury-free, and invisible in a smile. If you have older metal fillings you'd like replaced, we'll give you an honest assessment of whether it's worth doing.

A crown is a custom-made cap that restores a tooth too damaged for a filling — after a root canal, a fracture, or deep decay — returning its full strength and appearance. A bridge uses the same craftsmanship to replace a missing tooth entirely, anchored naturally to its neighbors.

Both are custom-made for your bite and matched to your natural tooth color.

The most misunderstood procedure in dentistry: a root canal doesn't cause the pain — it ends it. When the nerve inside a tooth becomes infected, we carefully clean the internal canals, seal them, and protect the tooth, usually with a crown. Done with modern technique and proper anesthesia, it feels much like getting a filling.

An implant replaces a missing tooth from the root up: a small titanium anchor bonds with the jawbone and a custom crown sits on top. The result looks, feels, and works like a natural tooth — you eat what you like and brush as usual. Implants can also anchor dentures securely.

Dr. Davey restores implants in coordination with trusted local specialists, managing your care from first consultation to final crown.

Modern dentures are custom-crafted to fit your mouth precisely and look convincingly natural. From full and partial dentures to implant-supported options that never slip, we'll walk you through what fits your needs and budget.

When a tooth truly can't be saved — and only then — it's removed gently, with proper anesthesia and a clear plan for what comes next, whether that's an implant, a bridge, or simply healing. You'll never be left wondering about the next step.

Loving your smile

Cosmetic care with a conservative hand.

Coffee, tea, red wine, and time all leave their mark. Professional whitening lifts years of staining safely — stronger and far more predictable than drugstore strips, with your enamel protected throughout. Most patients brighten several shades.

A veneer is a thin shell of porcelain bonded to the front of a tooth, transforming its color, shape, or alignment. For teeth that are chipped, stained beyond whitening, or unevenly spaced, veneers deliver the most dramatic change per visit of anything in dentistry.

The small fixes with outsized impact: bonding uses tooth-colored resin to repair a chip or close a small gap in a single visit, while contouring gently reshapes an edge that catches the eye. Conservative, quick, and often surprisingly affordable.

Straighter teeth without brackets or wires: a series of nearly invisible, removable aligners moves your teeth gradually into place. You take them out to eat and brush, and most people won't notice you're wearing them. Great for adults and teens alike.

Not sure which of these you need? Book an exam — we'll look, explain what we see, and let you decide.

Patient Education

Understand your smile.

We've always believed a patient who understands their own mouth makes better decisions than one who's simply told what to do. These are the questions we hear most, answered the way we'd answer them in the chair.

For most people, an exam and cleaning every six months keeps small problems small. X-rays are taken far less often — typically a full set at your first visit for a proper baseline, then periodic bite-wing images only as your dentist judges necessary. Our digital x-rays use a fraction of the radiation of older film systems.

The honest answer: the infection hurts; the root canal is what stops it. With modern anesthesia and technique, most patients say the procedure itself felt like having a filling done. The days of the root canal's fearsome reputation are decades behind us — and putting off treatment is what leads to the real pain.

Rinse gently with warm water and floss carefully around the tooth — pain is sometimes caused by something lodged between teeth. Take an over-the-counter pain reliever if you need it, but never place an aspirin directly against the gum: it can burn the tissue. Then call us at 239-434-8886; sudden pain is something we make time for.

Amalgam has been studied for over a century and remains considered safe by the American Dental Association. We don't recommend replacing sound metal fillings just because they're metal — that removes healthy tooth for cosmetic gain. When an old filling wears out or the tooth around it decays, that's when we replace it, with tooth-colored composite.

Not quite. Water irrigation devices are a useful supplement — especially around bridges, implants, and braces — but they don't remove sticky plaque from between teeth the way floss does. Think of a water pick as an addition to brushing and flossing, not a substitute for either.

Yes — done professionally, whitening lightens the tooth without harming enamel. Some patients feel temporary sensitivity, which fades within a day or two. What we'll tell you honestly beforehand: whitening works on natural teeth only, so crowns and fillings keep their color, and results vary with the type of staining. That's why we start with a look, not a sales pitch.

Coverage. A veneer is a thin porcelain layer bonded to the front surface of a tooth — a cosmetic change for a structurally healthy tooth. A crown wraps the entire tooth and restores its strength — the right choice when a tooth is cracked, heavily filled, or has had a root canal. One is a new face; the other is a new suit of armor.

Common, yes. Normal, no. Bleeding gums are usually early gum disease (gingivitis) — inflammation from plaque along the gumline. The good news: at this stage it's fully reversible with a professional cleaning and better home care. Ignored, it can progress quietly to the stage that threatens the bone holding your teeth. If you're seeing pink in the sink regularly, come see us.

Have a question that isn't here? Ask it at your next visit — or send it to us and we'll answer personally. Educating patients is, quite literally, our mission statement.

Technology & Comfort

Modern tools,
old-fashioned patience.

The equipment earns its place the same way everything here does: only if it makes your visit more comfortable, more accurate, or easier to understand.

Digital X-rays & Panorex

A fraction of the radiation of film, and the image appears instantly — so we can show you exactly what we see, while you're still in the chair.

Cavity-detection software

Software analyzes each image alongside the doctor's eye, catching decay at the stage where the fix is a small filling — not a crown.

Intraoral photography

A tiny camera shows you your own teeth on screen. No more taking anyone's word for it — you see what we see, and decisions become conversations.

Digital impressions

Crowns and aligners start with a comfortable digital scan — not a tray of goop you have to bite into and hold. More precise for the lab, far more pleasant for you.

Dr Davey is absolutely the best dentist i've ever had and his hygentist Ken and assistant Kim are also gems! I'm 70 years old and was traumatized early in life by a butcher of a dentist. I recently had two teeth restored-rebuilt by Dr Davey to avoid a crown and or extraction. His attention to detail is unparalleled!

I've been a patient of Dr. Davey's since 2004. I have not and probably will not find a more honest dentist. Dr. Davey has always been honest with necessary procedures. I wish more dentists were like him!
