Who is Jesse Kane?
Dr. Kane was born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He attended Kalamazoo College where he majored in Biochemistry.

Dr. Kane sums up his treatment philosophy: “My goal is to help patients achieve and restore the esthetics, function and comfort, that make up their dream smile. I work with my patients to realize and meet their goals, no matter the situation. Dental problems can be overwhelming, and I want each patient to feel like I’m on their team. I am always available to listen and respond to any questions regarding treatment. I feel that an informed patient is better able to make decisions regarding their treatment plan. For this reason, I will go the extra mile in presenting and explaining the treatment options.
