Aspen Dental, officially known as Aspen Dental Management, Inc. (ADMI), is a prominent American
Dental support organization (DSO) that provides business and administrative support services to a vast network of independently owned and operated Aspen Dental-branded dental practices. Founded in 1998 by Robert Fontana, Aspen Dental has grown to support over 1,100 locations across the United States.
The core of Aspen Dental's business model is to empower dentists to become successful practice owners by managing the non-clinical aspects of their operations. This includes services such as accounting, marketing, human resources, payroll, procurement, real estate management, and technology integration. This support allows the independent dentists to concentrate on delivering patient care and maintaining clinical autonomy.
Aspen Dental aims to make
Dental care more accessible and affordable, often targeting individuals who may not have a regular dental provider or face financial barriers to care. They offer a comprehensive range of dental services, including general dentistry (check-ups,
fillings),
Cosmetic dentistry (
Teeth whitening,
veneers, clear aligners like Motto®), restorative dentistry (
crowns, bridges), oral surgery (extractions,
Dental implants), endodontics (root canals), and
Emergency dental care. Many of their practices are equipped with modern technology, including digital labs and 3D printing.
Aspen Dental has also engaged in community initiatives, such as the "Healthy Mouth Movement," providing free dental care to U.S. veterans and underserved populations. While each Aspen Dental practice is independently owned by a licensed
Dentist, the collective network and the support from ADMI contribute to a unified brand experience and shared resources for both providers and patients. Dr. Vikramjit Anand, specifically, is a dentist owner affiliated with Aspen Dental, practicing at their Ithaca, NY location, and also has offices in Horseheads, NY and Olean, NY. He is noted for accepting new patients and speaks Hindi.
