This was my first visit to Aspen Dental. From the beginning, making an appointment by phone was quick and easy, and the receptionist was very nice. I also appreciated the reminder call the day before my appointment.
When I arrived, the office was quiet and clean. The dental assistant, Ciara (sorry if I spelled the name wrong), helped scan my teeth and patiently explained everything while answering all my questions.
When the doctor came in, he immediately pointed out my dental issues and explained them clearly. The results were excellent. The cost was also more affordable than I expected, especially since I don’t have insurance.
Everyone was amazing. Thank you!

This dental practice is the best! I’ve been a patient here for a few years. It’s a great place to go to take care of your teeth. I find it easy to schedule appointments at times that fit my busy schedule. I appreciate the appointment emails and reminder calls. The office staff is very pleasant. I’m greeted immediately when I walk through the door. Everything is on time and runs very smoothly and efficiently. The dental hygienists are amazing! They are friendly and kind. They put me at ease and make me feel welcome and comfortable. I always feel like I got a great cleaning. Dr. Lutz is a fantastic dentist! He is honest, knowledgeable and genuinely cares about the health of my teeth. He clearly explains what my teeth problems are, why it might be happening, how to prevent future occurrences, and what the plan is to correct problems. He listens to my concerns and answers my questions. I have dental anxiety, and he is so skilled that I often don’t even feel when I’m getting work done, not even the shots. I enjoyed seeing the high tech 3D images of my mouth when my crown was being made. I haven’t experienced any issues with any of the work that was completed by Dr. Lutz. When work is needed, I’m given the treatment plan and cost estimates. I find everyone in this practice to be extremely professional and I would highly recommend them!

I've had the most amazing dental experience here! Dr. Lutz, Matt, Sierra, Patreece, and Crystal are the most amazing wonderful people, and are realistic with how to approach dental issues. It's an extremely welcoming environment. They help me approach all dental work with an affordability mindset and increase my knowledge so I can make the best decisions analyzing the cost vs. work needed. Dr. Lutz is phenomenal and willingly helps me understand how my x-rays look, what work is necessary, and what steps are needed to move forward.

This Aspen has the most amazing staff! Daniella the dental hygienist always makes my teeth feel super clean and she’s super nice. I needed a lot of work and Matt and Dr. Lutz did a great job and my teeth have never looked better! I recommend this location and its staff to all of my friends because of how helpful and kind everyone is and for how amazing my teeth feel!

This experience has been really great as I was stressed out about My upper partial breaking off and having to move into getting a total upper denture, but I’m feeling a lot more confident about it than I was which has a lot to do with your staff. They were GREAT!!! Asia was wonderful and explained everything very thoroughly and made this process a lot less stressful.
