The organization's mission is to break down barriers to quality and affordable oral healthcare, particularly for individuals who may not have a regular dental provider or face financial obstacles to care.
Aspen Dental clinics offer a comprehensive range of dental services. These include general dentistry such as routine check-ups, cleanings, fillings, and extractions. They also specialize in more complex procedures like dental implants, dentures (with an on-site lab for convenience and a money-back guarantee), crowns, bridges, root canals, and oral surgery. Additionally, many locations provide orthodontic solutions, including Motto® clear aligners, and emergency dental care for urgent needs like toothaches or broken teeth.
The Aspen Dental model focuses on patient accessibility, often locating practices in areas with a high need for dental providers. They work with most dental insurance plans and also offer flexible financing options and a membership-based Aspen Dental Savings Plan for patients without insurance. They are known for accommodating walk-in and emergency appointments, often with extended hours and select Saturday availability. Beyond patient care, Aspen Dental is also involved in community initiatives, notably the "Healthy Mouth Movement," which provides free dental care to veterans and underserved populations.
