Learn about Dr. CJ Henley, a Jacksonville dentist specializing in cosmetic dentistry, restorative care, oral medicine, and oncology-focused dental treatment. Discover his patient-centered approach, advanced training, and commitment to long-lasting, ethical dentistry.

You come first in our practice. Always.

My goal has always been simple: to build long-term relationships with my patients and provide dentistry that truly lasts. I want everyone who walks into my practice to feel known, cared for, and confident in the treatment they receive. Dentistry isn’t just technical for me—it’s personal.

I practice cosmetic dentistry, family dentistry, and oral medicine here in Jacksonville, and I take pride in being a patient-focused office. I never rush appointments. I want you to understand your options, ask questions, and feel comfortable with the plan we create together.

I use advanced dental technology because it helps deliver great outcomes—but I also believe that technology is no substitute for diagnostic skill or clinical judgment. Dentistry shouldn’t be measured by how fast it’s done. It should be measured by how long it lasts and how well it holds up over time. That’s the standard I hold myself to.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Integrative Biology and my Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of Florida, where I received awards in ethics and cosmetic dentistry. Since then, I’ve stayed deeply involved in organized dentistry because I believe our profession needs strong advocates. I’ve served as President of the Northeast District Dental Association and as a Delegate to the Florida Dental Association, helping support legislation that protects patient care and clinical standards.

Teaching has also been an important part of my career. I’ve served as faculty in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the University of Florida College of Dentistry, working with residents and helping train future surgeons and dentists.

In addition to private practice, I serve on the Head and Neck Tumor Board at Baptist MD Anderson. This multidisciplinary team brings together specialists across medicine and dentistry to support patients undergoing treatment for head and neck cancers. Being part of that group is one of the most meaningful aspects of my work and allows me to help patients through some of the most challenging seasons of their lives.

I want you to know that when you trust us with your care, it truly means something to me. My team and I are grateful for every patient who walks through our doors, and we take that responsibility seriously.

We look forward to serving you and your family with the same honesty, skill, and compassion we would give our own.
