Our practice was first established by Dr. Richard Crovatto in 1983, who was Dr. Steven Crovattos father. Our older patients surely remember Dr. Crovattos compassion, kind chairside manner, and excellent sense of humor. Over 30 years later, every member of our team continues to honor his legacy by holding their work to the highest standards possible. We look forward to serving the Orange Park community well into the future!
Here, youll never find uncomfortable sales pitches or pressure to accept overblown treatment plans that you dont really need. Dr. Edwards and Dr. Crovatto both believe in a conservative approach to dentistry, helping you maintain as much of your healthy, natural smile as possible throughout the years. We also promise to always be honest with you, providing straightforward, personalized recommendations that are based on your specific needs and goals nothing more, nothing less.
Our team members are true experts at navigating the twists and potential pitfalls of dental insurance, and we look forward to helping you take full advantage of your specific coverage. Were in-network with several major providers and can file claims on our patients behalf for many more plans. We will also be sure to let you know the most accurate estimates possible on what will be covered and what you can expect to pay out of pocket before any actual treatment begins.
No dental insurance? That shouldnt have to hold you and your loved ones back from receiving important oral healthcare. Here in Orange Park, our practice has an amazing alternative the Smile Network membership program. For a simple yearly fee, those covered receive affordable checkups and cleanings, all of the necessary X-rays, fluoride treatments, and a 15% discount on all other treatment. It works just like a typical insurance plan, only without all of the headaches, confusing jargon, and tedious claims.
We enjoy being able to offer our patients as many options as possible for making their dental care financially stress-free, even when undergoing extensive treatment plans. If youd like to break down your overall cost into more affordable sections, financing is available through CareCredit. Several plan lengths are available, all of which have little or even NO interest attached to them. This type of financial assistance can even be used for purely cosmetic procedures that arent covered by dental insurance. Be sure to let us know if youre interested in learning more!
Dr. Crovatto is actually a native of New York. His family relocated to Orange Park in the early 1980s after his father, Dr. Richard Crovatto, completed dental school. This practice was opened in 1983, and you could regularly find Dr. Crovatto helping out here throughout high school, performing lab work and lending a hand with other miscellaneous tasks.
After graduating from Orange Park High School, Dr. Crovatto completed his undergraduate at the University of North Florida and then his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree at the University of Florida with Honors. He is also the past president of the Clay County Dental Society. He particularly enjoys performing restorative care, dental implants, root canals, and extractions for patients in need.
Dr. Edwards chose to complete both her undergraduate degree and her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree at the University of Florida. She was born and raised in South Florida but is proud to now call North Florida her home!
Dr. Edwards and her new husband moved to North Florida around the same time that Dr. Richard Crovatto was starting to lessen his hours. She became an associate at the practice to help lighten the workload and it felt like a perfect fit right away. She enjoys performing a wide variety of dental services but has a special affinity for cosmetic dentistry, such as veneers and orthodontics. She enjoys working closely with Dr. Steven Crovatto to ensure that every patient receives the skilled and personalized care approach they need.
When she isnt busy at the practice, you can find Dr. Edward spending time with her husband and two daughters. Other hobbies include traveling, doing home improvement projects, and cheering on the Gators.
