Detailed Introduction

Aspen Dental is a prominent dental brand that operates as a large network of independently owned dental practices. These practices receive administrative and business support services from Aspen Dental Management Inc., which is now part of The Aspen Group (TAG), a dental support organization (DSO). This model allows dentists to focus on patient care while the DSO handles operational aspects like billing, HR, and compliance. The brand's identity is centered around improving access to quality dental care, affordability, and a patient-first approach. Aspen Dental aims to remove common barriers to dental care through various means, including offering flexible payment options, transparent pricing, and frequently providing free initial exams for new, uninsured patients. They have a significant presence across the United States, with over 1,100 locations in 45 states, making dental services more accessible in many communities, including areas often referred to as "dental deserts." Aspen Dental provides a comprehensive suite of dental services to address diverse patient needs. These include general dentistry (check-ups, cleanings, fillings), cosmetic dentistry (teeth whitening, veneers, Motto clear aligners), and specialty services like oral surgery (tooth extractions, wisdom teeth removal, dental implants) and endodontics (root canal therapy). A notable feature is their on-site denture labs at most locations, allowing for quicker and more customized denture solutions, backed by a money-back guarantee. They also offer emergency dental care. While Aspen Dental is praised for its convenience, accessibility, friendly staff, and modern equipment, some patient reviews have raised concerns about aggressive upselling, billing issues, and potential inconsistencies in care quality between different locations due to the franchise model. However, Aspen Dental actively works to address patient feedback and maintains a focus on patient satisfaction and comprehensive care. Their commitment extends to community initiatives, such as the "Healthy Mouth Movement," which provides free dental care to veterans and those in need.

Aspen Dental staff are very personable and professional. My experience was fantastic. I needed to get a few crowns and was really scared that I would be in a lot of pain. It turns out the staff were very concerned about me and took their time during my procedure to make sure I was not in a lot of pain or too uncomfortable.

They matched my crowns up perfectly to my current teeth and I can not be more pleased with my outcome. If you are scared of dentists like I am, I can assure you the staff are patient and will make sure you are comfortable at all times.

My experience with my first time attending Aspen Dental was very rewarding very informative and I recommend anyone who is afraid to go to the dentist to attend this establishment. My concerns were heard and I like the fact that someone listened to me when I told them about my past experiences with other dentists. If any questions you may have you can ask them and they will be answered and they listen and to me that is very important.

Also you're not blindsided on your options of how much your procedure May cost and there are other options of paying for your procedures. I highly recommend this establishment.

Great experience! Very informative and attentive to my son's needs, even down to financing. They led the way on what needed to be done, going over details making sure we understood the process. Provided time for concerns and questions. Very professional thus far!

The Receptionist was great; The finance lady was very nonchalant and very unfriendly. The Oral Surgeon's (male) lab coat looked dingy and unclean. He seems to be only concerned about other work that needed to be done instead of focusing on my pain, from a tooth in my mouth that had a hole in it. , I made the appointment under the impression that I was there for an extraction. But the Oral Surgeon wouldn't do the extraction unless I agreed to have the other work done as well. This appointment was all about making money. I was not expecting to be seen by the Hygienist. Now, my insurance company will be billed for a first-time visit workup instead of the main issue I was there for in the first place. Be very careful when selecting Aspen Dental in Evergreen Park. They are all about charges being made to your insurance company and how much they can get out-of-pocket money from the patients. BEWARE. . . . .
