Family, cosmetic and general dental care on Sheldon Road since 1994. Two trusted doctors, a kind team, and quiet, comfort-focused appointments — for everyone from your kids to your grandparents.
Cleanings, exams and dental sealants that catch small problems before they grow — the foundation of every smile we take care of.
Veneers, bonding, whitening and Invisalign — the smile makeover work both Dr. Nick and Dr. Kristina are trained in.
Fillings, crowns, root canal therapy and dental implants to bring back full function — and bring back a smile you can rely on.
Tooth extractions and in-office surgical care handled by doctors who explain every step before they begin.
For nervous patients and longer procedures — quiet, gentle care with medication options so your visit feels easy.
Straighten quietly with Invisalign clear aligners, then brighten with professional whitening — both done in-office.
Tampa Dental was established in 1994 by Dr. Laz N. Kavouklis as a family practice on Sheldon Road. Today Dr. Nick Kavouklis and Dr. Kristina Villafria carry that tradition forward — known for quality dentistry in a caring, comfortable environment.
We welcome patients whether you're here for aesthetic or health reasons. Our goal is simple: a long, mutually rewarding relationship with your family's smiles.
Both doctors are committed to staying current with the latest in dentistry — and equally committed to making your visit feel calm.

"It's a very nice office and the staff is always upbeat. They make sure your insurance covers ahead of time… Dr Nick does a super job with fillers for my chipped teeth, or worn enamel. He takes great care in making sure I'm happy with the results. My husband said this office is a considerable savings compared to his other dentist."
"I'm relatively new to the area and found Tampa Dental doing an online search, wow, what a home-run! Dr Nick was just as amazing, dare I say the best dental exam, cleaning and experience I may have ever received. I am so thankful I found Tampa Dental, I can't say enough good about the entire staff involved from end to end."
"My first visit to Tampa Dental and completely pleased with the customer service and staff. They are truly invested in the patient's experience and care. The staff is informative and Dr. Christina absolutely wonderful. I love how they have the latest technology in the dental industry to assist. Thank you for a wonderful first experience!"
