I had a wonderful experience at Aspen Dental! From the moment I walked in, everyone was friendly, welcoming, and professional. The entire staff made me feel comfortable and took the time to answer my questions and explain everything clearly.
A special thank you to Jess for being so kind, patient, and helpful throughout my visit. She went above and beyond to make sure I felt at ease and genuinely cared about my experience. It's not often you come across someone who is both knowledgeable and compassionate, and Jess was exactly that.
I highly recommend Aspen Dental to anyone looking for great dental care and outstanding customer service. Thank you, Jess, and the entire team, for such a positive experience!

This place is awesome. They treat you like a human not a money sign for profit. They make sure you understand what your appointment is all about. The dentist is absolutely the sweetest ever. Her hygienist helper is so sweet and very informative about every process and procedure. I definitely would recommend this place.

I've loved coming to Aspen. The hygienist I've had are all very nice and Jess, the lady in charge of insurance has explained things so thoroughly because I dont understand insurance at all. Anything that has come up or if problems have arisen, we have been able to work through and figure out.

Definitely I have a fear of dentists and have procrastinated about keeping my teeth healthy. But today was a pleasure to taken care of by this team. I never felt any pain, discomfort or judgement. And everyone explained everything I needed to know. They answered any of my questions and concerns in terms I truly understood for once.

Very mixed feelings. The appointment with the hygienist was great, she was very kind and answered all my questions. BUT I pre paid for an appointment, almost $400 and that was the full amount after they found me some discounts- which I was very appreciative of but then I showed up for an appointment today and they wanted to charge me an additional $625 saying I hadn’t paid. Make sure you keep track of what you pay for because if I wouldn’t have said something they would have just taken the payment today without a second thought.
