For decades, Dr. Cakmes led our practice with a gentle, patient-first approach in general and cosmetic dentistry. Patients often remarked that he was the gentlest dentist they’d ever known—a reputation built on careful technique and genuine care for every person in the chair. A proud University of Tennessee alumnus, he earned his B.A. in Microbiology in 1981 and his DDS from the UT College of Dentistry in 1985. Throughout his career, he stayed actively engaged in continuing education and professional organizations, reflecting his commitment to high standards of clinical excellence. Now retired, Dr. Cakmes is enjoying a well-earned slower pace—spending more time with his family and playing pickleball. His legacy of compassionate, high-quality care continues to shape our culture and guide the work of every provider on our team.
