Everyone that I have worked with have been very professional. Very nice and caring. False teeth aren't exactly what anyone wants but the employees and doctor made me feel more comfortable about going for extractions! Really enjoy the time I'm able to spend in the clinic. Great place.

Had a great experience today. The dental assistant Connie who did my x-rays was incredibly kind and patient. She made the whole process quick and easy and was very professional. Really appreciated her!

No one necessarily likes the dentist but Aspen was great. I have a cracked tooth and came to Aspen for a treatment plan and/or options. Connie took xrays and was amazingly patient with me, Teri did my numbers explaining as she went, and Dr. P evaluated me. They were super kind and explained what they saw along the way, and what that meant for me. I know a lot of people don't want the judging associated with dental visits, but I'd give this place a try. It is clean and quiet and they kind of meet you where you are for dental work treatment. I appreciated their understanding and kindness when I am a bit of a mess (cracked teeth are not fun), but consider Aspen if you are wary.

Dr. P is so kind and patient. Connie was great today with assisting with my filling! All the staff I have encountered are courteous and professional. I know going to the dentist isn't anyone's favorite but they make you comfortable and relaxed. I can't say enough good things about this practice!

I have never been to Aspen dental before, I made an appointment because I was dealing with extreme pain in the lower right side of my jaw. I got there and after I filled out information they needed, I was taken back for x-rays, which was VERY painful. After that a hygienist came in and poked around in my mouth and that was painful also. After all this and sitting in s room for over an hour a doctor came in and said I had an infection and that my tooth needed to be pulled and I would need a implant or a bridge after my tooth was pulled. Long story short. They never told me what to do for the pain or the swelling in the mean time of waiting for my tooth to br pulled in a week. They prescribed me an antibiotic, which they forgot to call in to the pharmacy! So I went home still dealing with excruciating pain and I put an ice pack on it after I rinsed my mouth with warm salt water. I did this on my own they never told me what to do for the pain and swelling. This morning I wake up and my whole right side of my face is swollen and I am still in alot of pain! All in all they told me this process of the tooth pull and a bridge will cost me 2,000 even after insurance. I feel they could have done a better job explaining things and making it less expensive. I am not sure what to do at this point. I am truly not sure i want to return. I feel they care more about the money and not my well being.
