About Dental Center of Mesa
Dr. Jonathan Kalika draws patients from 60 to 200 miles away, praised for conservative treatment and same-day crown work.
Dental Center of Mesa is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign alongside its broader restorative and emergency services. Reviews repeatedly mention patients driving long distances, or staying on as patients after moving away, to continue treatment with Dr. Kalika. Several notes describe him as conservative and unwilling to push unnecessary procedures, with same-day crowns and quick emergency turnarounds also mentioned often. Anxious patients in particular note a gentle touch, including help with TMJ pain and easier-than-expected extractions.

HORRIBLE PLACE!!! DO NOT GO HERE! Receptionist is horrible with a bad attitude. I had called (mistakenly) the wrong place due to calling the phone number in google for the office I needed. She replied when I was asking questions about what office I was calling “Like I have told you three times “ and hung up on me when I was trying to tell her that was the number google gave me and I was calling the wrong office. But she interrupted and never let me finish the sentence. Never been so happy to never use their dental office!
I went to Dental Center of Mesa and had a most satisfying periodontal cleaning and full mouth x-ray with new Dental Hygienist who was very professional and accommodating. Dr. Kalika came in and asked if I had any concerns, which I did not. Been using this dentist for years and will continue because of the great service.
This has been my dental office for three decades. The staff is amazing, knowledgeable, and so friendly. Dr. Kalika is so professional. I especially love the way he explains everything in detail with sincere understanding and appreciation for me as a patient. 5 Stars!⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Dr Kalika and his staff are amazing! I have been a patient of the Dental Center in Mesa for over 10 years. During that time, I’ve only had routine cleanings and x-rays. His staff are always professional, kind, considerate, organized and helpful. Kaiya is the best dental hygienist I have ever had! Recently I broke a back tooth. The office staff got me in very quickly to review my options for the tooth. I returned a few days later for a crown; I was given other options but the crown was the best option. I had not had a crown in a very long time. I barely felt the numbing injections! Dr Kalika was very gentle, kind & communicative. I was in & out of the office in less than 2 hours with my new crown! Thank you to Dr Kalika & his entire staff for making my crown experience an easy one!
We cannot recommend East Valley Dental Care enough. They have been wonderful with my husband’s routine dental care, but what truly sets them apart is the incredible compassion they showed during his recent illness. They went above and beyond to ensure he was comfortable and adjusted his care to meet his specific needs while he was unwell. It’s rare to find a dental team that treats you like family, but that is exactly how we felt. Thank you for your kindness and expertise!"
