JESSICA J. KAKOS, D.D.S.
D
r. Jessica Kakos is a modern
dentist with specialized
cutting-edge equipment who
maintains an old-fashioned sensibility.
At her offices in Farmington Hills and
Bloomfield Hills, patients always come
first.
"Our patients are the center of this
dental practice says the University of
Detroit Mercy graduate. And she means
it.
She and her staff are upbeat and
caring and do what it takes to make
patients
feel comfortable and at ease.
The mother of four young children,
Dr. Kakos is especially good with the
youngsters.
With her patient-centered approach,
she takes time with each individual and
cares about every smile.
Her office is equipped with the latest
technology, including digital X-rays for
a comprehensive study of the mouth, a
CEREC machine that makes it possible
to create and attach computer-designed
ceramic crowns in just one office visit.
And she can fit selected patients with
Invisalign braces that require no metal.
Because of the high incidence of gum
disease, Dr. Kakos has a
periodontist visit weekly to handle gum
issues and implants.
Dr. Kakos practices general
and cosmetic dentistry, all with a
conservative eye and a dedication to
individualized care.
"Dentistry can be subjective she
says. "I like to stay conservative.
I like to watch things, and I want
patients to see the big picture,
especially regarding aesthetic
improvements. Function is key."
In a field that is growing and
becoming big business, Dr. Kakos stays
true to dentistry, bringing a strong
work ethic and sense of honesty to her
practice. She stresses the importance of
oral health and uses her vantage point
as a dentist to look for warning signs
in the mouth that might indicate more
serious illnesses. On several occasions,
she has spotted signs of heart disease,
diabetes and cancer and then referred
patients to have further evaluations.
"A simple visit to dentist can prevent
other problems:' Dr. Kakos says. "A lot
of people don't realize we find these
things, but it's all related.
"I look at practicing dentistry as a
gift God has given to me. I'm here to
serve others and help them."
In that spirit, Dr. Kakos volunteers
her time to dental organizations
like Dentistry from the Heart and
other charitable groups. She offers
payments plans to patients because
she knows dental challenges are often
unanticipated. And she offers free
athletic mouthpieces to student athletes
at schools in areas surrounding her
offices.
"It is a rewarding time to be a
dentist:' she says. "There is almost
always a worthy solution for a dental
problem, thanks to so many new
advancements!'
Though certainly attuned to these
advancements, Dr. Kakos maintains the
kind of patient-centered service that
harkens back to when the practice was
established more than 50 years ago.
