Aspen Dental

Aspen Dental, officially known as Aspen Dental Management, Inc., is a prominent American dental support organization (DSO) established in 1998. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, Aspen Dental operates on a unique model where it supports over 1,100 independently owned dental offices across the United States. While the individual practices are owned and operated by licensed dentists who maintain clinical autonomy, Aspen Dental provides comprehensive non-clinical support services. This includes assistance with marketing, operations, training, human resources, finance, and procurement, allowing dentists to focus primarily on patient care without the burdens of managing the business aspects of a practice. The organization aims to increase access to quality dental care, particularly for individuals who may not have an existing relationship with a dental provider or face financial constraints. Aspen Dental practices offer a wide array of services, including general dentistry (cleanings, fillings, extractions), cosmetic dentistry, emergency dental care, dentures (with on-site labs and a money-back guarantee), dental implants, crowns, bridges, root canals, and orthodontic solutions like Motto® clear aligners. They work with various insurance providers and offer flexible financing options to make dental care more affordable. Aspen Dental is known for its "Healthy Mouth Movement," a community initiative that provides free dental care to underserved populations, including veterans. They emphasize a transparent approach to pricing, providing clear, detailed estimates for treatment plans. The Roanoke Rapids, NC location, like other Aspen Dental clinics, benefits from this extensive network and support system, striving to provide comprehensive care to its community.
