Our integrative, functional approach to Dentistry is to look beyond the teeth and identify how your oral health can impact your total health and systemic health impact on oral health.
We identify through questionnaires, health histories as well as a comprehensive oral examination process, key components and risk factors that impact systemic health. Dentistry is more than the teeth and gums. The mouth is a reflection of total body health. We look forward to helping you attain the level of total health that is important to you.
I have been practicing dentistry since 1987. I am dedicated to having truthful conversations with my patients and willing to accept the outcome. I have always felt we are of better service to our patients if we can provide the information to help you make the best possible decisions for your long-term health. Along with that, the decisions you make have to be consistent with the level of quality and cost that you value.
Being health-focused means that we provide you with the information and coaching to help you along the way toward whatever goal you have for your oral health. Once you and I have identified that goal, we can focus our efforts toward reaching that level of health that you have chosen for yourself.
The Dental Fitness exams provide a visual aid to show you what your current level of health is. It serves, as a guide to recommend changes to your home care as well as how we can tailor your individual treatment needs based on the exam findings.
Our approach towards dental care is what makes us different from other dental practices. Our team focuses on taking steps that improve the quality of life and reduce the number of dental visits a patient may require during his/her lifetime. We achieve this through preventive care.
At our dental office, we inform patients about the importance of oral health and motivate them towards taking better care of their oral health. We educate patients about healthy diet, hygiene habits and create awareness about what practices can increase the risk of dental problems.
Through our specialized dental care, we have successfully built long-lasting relationships with families from McHenry, Crystal Lake, Woodstock, Spring Grove, Richmond, Genoa City, Twin Lakes, Wonder Lake, Island Lake, Johnsburg, Ringwood, Volo, Fox Lake, Lakemoor, and Holiday Hills. We cater to dental needs of all age groups and treat basic to the most complicated dental problems.
To your good health,
James A. Hasken, D.D.S.
