Meet Our Doctors

Dr. Lisa Cashin graduated from the University of MN in 1975 with a BA in Psychology, and University of MN Dental School in 1978.  Dr. Cashin joined DHCC in 1985 after several years in the general family practice setting.  She continues to further her dental education so that she can provide her patients, of all ages, with comprehensive treatment using the latest techniques. 

She treats patients with cosmetic restorations, including CEREC crowns which are made in the office in a single visit.  She also performs comfortable root canal treatments and extractions when needed.  When implant treatment has been completed with a specialist, Dr. Cashin provides the final ceramic crown and/or bridgework.  If implants are not an option for the patient, she will provide them with a well-fitted partial or denture.  Dr Cashin is also a certified Invisalign provider enabling her to give minor orthodontic care to adults as part of a cosmetic treatment plan when needed, or desired, by her patients.  In addition, Dr. Cashin is certified as a Perio Protect provider.  This is another treatment modality of homecare therapy to those patients with ongoing gum disease issues.  She continues to enjoy giving care to her diverse and multi-generation patients with gentle hands.

 Dr. James Lesch graduated from the University of Iowa in 1991 and spent several years in marketing before returning to school to pursue dentistry. He went on to receive his DDS from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry in 2001, followed by a one-year residency at the VA Medical Center in Minneapolis. Dr. Lesch joined Dental Health Care Center in 2002.

 Dr. Lesch places a great emphasis on treating one patient at a time, considering each individual's oral health needs and desires with any treatment he recommends or provides. For Dr. Lesch, "comprehensive dentistry" means not only a full spectrum of services, but even more importantly, each patient understanding his/her dental condition with an array of treatment options as well as benefits. Dr. Lesch is a member of the Academy of General Dentistry and is formally trained and licensed to provide oral conscious sedation.

Dr. John Woell  graduated from the University of Minnesota Morris in 1974 with a BA in Biology and the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry in 1977. He initially began practicing in Eagan and joined Dental Health Care Center in 1981.

Dr. Woell treats patients with a vision of maintaining each individual’s oral health for an entire lifetime. This requires a comprehensive approach which includes assessing one’s medical, periodontal, orthodontic, and restorative needs. He trained early in his professional career to diagnose and treat patients having malocclusion problems with orthodontic therapy. This includes both children and adults of all ages. In addition to a special interest in orthodontics, Dr. Woell also provides a full range of other services and remains committed to your smile by practicing high quality general, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry. He is certified in CEREC, Invisalign, and Perio Protect procedures.
