I cannot say enough about the wonderful experience and quality of the work I had done today. everyone was very friendly and professional. I am grateful to have found my new dental practice!
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
This is the most professional dentist office I've ever been to. Everything from the cleanings and checks to the all-in-one-office crown and implant process has been great. Both Dr. Kakos and his staff are very conscientious, personable, professional, do great work, and communicate very well on all procedures and issues. All the high tech imaging and testing equipment made me feel I was getting the most up-to-date info, diagnosis and treatment. Office atmosphere is also very warm and pleasant.
“Excellent on all levels”

Upon moving to Mt. Prospect, my wife and I were in desperate of a good dentist. Our expectations were exceeded by finding Dr. Kakos. We were each provided with thorough consultations and treatment plans, and it was obvious Dr. Kakos is extremely knowledgeable and detail oriented. My wife soon got two new crowns which were the best dental work either of us had ever seen. Also, Terry is the best hygienist ever! Highly recommend this office to anyone looking for a best-in-class practice.
“Excellent and professional!”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
Doctor Kakos gave me back a beautiful smile after losing my front teeth in an accident. He is extremely knowledgeable and explains everything to you in a way you can understand. Both he and his assistants are very nice and funny, and put you at ease during your appointments.
“Excellent Dentist”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
We used this dentist for the past 7 years and we only stayed because we loved our dental hygenist who has moved out of state. Every procedure I have had done and my husband has had done we have needed to go back in for corrections. They recommend unnecessary procedures and are constantly overcharging us when we leave. The amount of money I have never been refunded is incredible. I would never recommend this practice to friends or family we should have left a long time ago.
“We used this dentist for the past 7 years and we only stayed because we loved our dental hygenist...”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
Jim has been nothing short of amazing through the care he has provided me during the design, build, fit and service of my crown. He and his team have been highly professional during out time together and I would recommend him to anyone, especially anything that needs top skill and complex care. He is simply the best...,
“Simply the best!”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
I am new to the area and made an appt with Dr. Kakos as i read reviews and saw he was highly recommended. I came in for a cleaning, tooth sensitivity and a veneer consultation. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, the hygenist was very thorough, and Dr. Kakos was extremely informative. He explained all my options and explained them in great detail. So far it has been a positive experience
“First timer”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1

I've been going to Dr. Kakos for many years and he is an excellent dentist. I recently came back from FL after 2 years and recently came back to IL. I had seen 3 other dentists in FL and after spending over $30,000 on my teeth, none of the other dentists caught the real underlying issue with my teeth. Within a week of coming back to IL I went straight to Dr. Kakos because I knew there was still something not right despite the work and treatment plan the FL dentists did. I was correct, after seeing Dr. Kakos one time, he was spot on as to what needed to be done (keeping in mind he was my dentist may years prior to moving to FL). He knew my teeth and has always been able to stay on top of my many issues with my teeth. If I decide to move back to FL, I will fly back to IL just to see him. I don't trust any other dentist. I love his sincere care of me as a person and over the years he has always had the right prognosis and next steps as it relates to my teeth. I can't say enough things about Dr. Kakos!!!

“Cracked filling replacement”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
This was my first visit with the doctor; the diagnosis was done pretty quickly meaning it seems doctor knew exactly what was wrong. The doctor was to the point and seemed accurate. Good explanation helped form the opinion. I will return and hope he would be my permanent doctor for future.
“Happy with the visit with the doctor. This was first visit!”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
Always great experience in Dr Kakos office, I am patient for last few years and was never disappointed with quality of service and continue going to this office even after being out of network as it is well worth it. My hygienist Joanna is also outstanding and goes extra mile to make sure my smile will last. Payment options are always discussed and claims are correctly filed. Pleasure to come here every time, nice and professional atmosphere. Highly recommended.
“Top notch as always!”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
Dr. Kakos is an outstanding professional whose education in implants, one hour crowns, etc. and his obvious caring personality for each and every patient, make for a most remarkable experience in dentistry. Today he removed a broken crown, and through his ultramodern technology, created a new crown which was perfectly fitted. It was all quite amazing! Office and dental staff are friendly, also caring, and well versed in their profession. I don't think there's any dental facility quite like this one!
“This doctor knows what he's doing!”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1

“Always taking great care of me”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1

We have been coming to Dr Kakos for most of the 17 years we have lived in Chicago. He is the only dentist I have ever looked forward to seeing. He's super-professional and extremely personable, and procedures are painless and always very well-explained. Plus, he's a really nice guy, and the entire staff is a joy to be with!
“Stupendous dentist saves world!”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
I was with my previous dentist for over 20 years and I'm very selective. Dr Kakos exceeded all of my expectations. Almost every tooth in my mouth is crowned, veneered, or inlayed. Some of my restorations are 20 years old and need replacement. Dr Kakos replaced two of my crowns and an inlay with no pain and minimal discomfort. He and his staff are professional and friendly.
“I had an excellent experience. ”
James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
I'm 63, and this dentist is the most talented, personable, efficient and cost-effective that I have ever had, and I've had some fine dentists. Money spent here is worth every dime. This is the Dentist that I imagine the other Dentists go to when THEY need dental work. Kathy, Kera and the staff are very nice people and they're all professionals. Dr. Kakos is in a class by himself, and I always feel comfortable going there. Plus, his fees are fair and reasonable. Do yourself and your teeth a favor and check him out. I live in Arlington Heights, and I'm happy we have him in our community.

I am not a dentist person as I'm sure Dr. Kakos can tell from my teeth. But I have never been in any pain here. Everyone is extremely patient oriented. And Dr. Kakos is the most endearing doctor I've ever had. I would highly recommend him to anyone, young or old. Thank you for all you do.
“The Best Dentist I've Ever Had.”

It's only been a little over 24 hours since Dr. Kakos pulled my upper teeth and gave me my new, first set of dentures and I'm so happy with the results! The team that consisted of Nora, Bonnie and Nicki, were terrific! They helped me pick out the best color of dentures for me and assisted with the procedure! My follow up appointment today went very well and I got more info from the Doctor and the staff! I couldn't be happier with my decision to have this procedure done!

James S Kakos, DDS PC - 1401 S Arlington Heights Road Suite 1
DO NOT GET DENTAL WORK DONE HERE! If i could give 0 stars, I would. I paid over $40K for my dental work and had almost all of my teeth crowned. In the two years since the work has been finished, 4 of my crowns have fallen off (one of which has fallen off three different times), 2 have chipped and one has cracked. All of this despite my following every instruction given to me. I have not eaten anything or bitten into anything that would be able to cause this, avoided apples, hard candy, gum, ect., and brush my teeth twice daily with the toothbrush they provided to me. Despite this, I continue to have nothing but pain and issues that are costing me thousands more dollars to fix. Each time I have had an issue, the answer from them has always been that it must somehow be my fault and it couldn't possibly be that he did anything wrong. I know numerous people who have had crowns for a significantly longer time without them ever simply falling out while eating like a normal person. Dr. Kakos was pretentious and rude and treated me like a child throughout the entire experience not to mention having made multiple promises that he then conveniently "forgot" and refused to follow through on. The office staff and hygienists are very nice and kind but it does not make up for the poor quality work and terrible attitude/service provided by the doctor himself. I wish I had gone anywhere but here. To their credit, they have offered to fix things for free each time something has gone wrong, but it is difficult to feel confident in going back to an office to fix something when it doesn't stay fixed. I can't justify continuing to return to the office when I have no faith in the quality of the work and do not believe that it will actually make a difference. I can not stress enough to avoid going here if you value your teeth, time and money.

I really enjoy the care and attention to detail. Normally my past dentist experiences have not gone well with other doctors which has caused me to delay treatment and not going. But I do not feel that way at all with Dr Kakos. He makes it a pleasant experience and not so scary for those of us who dread the dentist.
