Aspen Dental Reviews 

The Aspen Dental on Newberry Rd in Gainesville Florida is absolutely awful.
Customer service, scheduling, transparency, and service in general is the worst I have ever experienced.
I will never ever go back there.

I went to aspen dental my tooth was hurting couldn’t talk to well. Dentist had no compassion and pushing me get dentures. I want dentures but can’t afford it without Medicare. He told me we don’t have Medicare. He did fax over antibiotics for me saying in have infected tooth. Soon as antibiotics are gone I will go to oral surgeon pull my tooth. Dentis left room with that light still shining in my eyes and was bright ask assistant shut light off she shut off room light not overhead light on. Dentist did raise chair up didn’t care if all my blood rushed in my head I got very dizzy had sit up. Assistant ask why light was off I told her I don’t know why she shut off room light off. All they care about is money not the patient. I had bad experience and will never go back there. I will ask oral surgeon pull for recommendations of a good dentist. Hope no one goes through what I had to was terrible. I can’t believe they treat people that bad.

You see i had thought I'd read "dentures in one day." But the ad really says "denture repairs in one day." NOT DENTURES ON ONE DAY...

I was going to the Aspen Dental in Orland Park for several years and have had scheduling problems 3 times. They schedule your cleanings 6 months in advance. Three times now, the week before my appointment, I get a notice telling me I need to re-schedule. When I call, I was told I had no appointment even though I was getting texts and emails telling me I did. They offer me a new appointment months away. They are not reliable. Find a reliable dentist and stay away from Aspen.

I underwent surgery on Tuesday, May 5th, and was treated by Dr. Lee—an excellent surgeon. I experienced absolutely no pain, bleeding, or swelling after the surgery, and by Wednesday, I was already eating solid foods. Many thanks to Dr. Lee and the entire team. I highly recommend this facility; I am very satisfied with the result.

Aspen dental in Haines City,FL.

Went to Aspen Dental because I thought I had a couple cavities. They advertised free X-rays at the time, so I thought I'd get some kind of Dental check up. They did X-rays, but also punctured about a 100 holes in my gums with some type of needle. I didn't say anything because I trusted them & thought this was part of the Dental procedure. Before leaving an assistant also mentioned I'd need 2 root canals totalling $7200. They scheduled for me to come in again a few days later. To make this long story short, I ended up with a lot of pain in my teeth & gums, I cancelled the 2nd appointment for root canals. The needle he punctured in my gums severed nerves in my gums & caused 5 teeth to fall out & other teeth cracked. I suffered a lot of pain with my teeth & currently live on Orajel. My teeth were perfectly fine before going to Aspen Dental & I didn't mind the 2 cavities I thought I had. I originally thought by going to the dentist they would make my teeth look better. It's just so deceiving. Thanks to Aspen Dental I'm afraid to go to a dentist. I'll never trust a dentist again ever.

Aspen dental charged me for procedures that I am not ever going to get, I did not want a bridge and it's on my bill, my money is not paying for that, I'm paying care credit , basically paying for procedures that I never am getting, Aspen dental are crooks plain and simple, I want a few teeth extracted and they said no you you don't just get a crown, I'm tired of the crowns I have got they chip, Aspen Dental are crooks hands down, why pay for future procedures than I have not received their expert crooked tactics are evil.

I came to this location due to having 7/10 tooth pain disrupting my sleep. Aspen had the shortest wait time - I soon found out why. The dentist office was open concept with no doors. They saw me right away and I had my X-rays done by the only nice person I met in the building. I then saw the dental hygienist. It seemed like the entire point of her “exam” was to shame and scare me into spending an absurd amount of money on their dental plan. When I told her it had been a while since my last cleaning, she said “I can tell.” She showed me a photo of my gums and said “Do these look like healthy gums to you?” The dentist dismissed my pain and blamed it on a medication I’ve been taking for months.

After you have your visit, they have you check out with a sales person disguised as an associate who tries to pressure you into signing up for their high interest credit plan. They said my treatment plan would cost approximately $7,000 with insurance. When I stated I couldn’t afford that, she said she would check with the dentist to see what was “absolutely necessary.” It can back to around $4000. I left. I went to Baystate Dental the next day and paid $80 for a procedure that alleviated my pain. I’ll have another procedure for the same cost in six months and my issue should be resolved - a far cry from $7000.

I’m a medical professional myself and I would never make a patient feel this way. I know that in these times many people have to choose between daily living costs and medical care. Maybe I would have fallen for their scheme if they treated me with any type of respect and understanding, as I was in so much pain. This practice is clearly exploiting vulnerable people with dental emergencies and using high pressure sales tactics to get people to spend money they don’t have. I’d recommend going anywhere else.

I am so done with Aspen Dental! I just went back again today to try to get the dentures from he🏒🏒 made right but that didn't happen and I just can't do it anymore. So lesson learned the hard way I will get them paid off and then go somewhere else.😠 They did a hard reline and while they are not trying to fall out when I talk they are not even okay dentures. I think a big part of the problem with this Aspen Dental is in their lab. In the past when you get dentures made they fit you with what they consider the rough dentures where any problems can be addressed before they give you your final dentures . Aspen Dental gives you the rough dentures as your final dentures. And when I say rough I mean rough. The teeth are all rough and not polished at all. The are sharp like they are broken and the gum part of the dentures on the outside are all rough. I know dentures as I have had upper dentures since I was 23 years old and I will soon be 74. People please to spend your money at Aspen Dental!!! If it wasn't for ruining my credit I would file bankruptcy so I didn't have to pay for them. Now I will have to wait until I can pay them off so I can go somewhere else.😠🙏♥️

Aspen Dental, do better! I had dental work done( not cosmetic) and was given an estimate that was around $1500, I paid it and was sent another bill for over $400, I paid it. I was then sent another bill for over $300, I paid it! Received Another bill today for over $300 and paid that too. For what I’ve paid I could have used a much better dentist in the area. This is ridiculous and you take my insurance. I’m not sure who dropped the ball but I will go to Delmarva Dental from now on, where I should have gone instead.

@everyone This happened at Aspen Dental Canton Ga. . Also, they did a bridge and crown a few years ago for me. The Dentist did both of the procedures wrong. I kept telling them that food was getting in the gaps they missed. They know I have SLE LUPUS. I tell Drs over and over again to ensure they understand I'm not a normal patient. He said they would replace it for free since I already paid $7k. I paid for a proper procedure. I did not get that. I kept telling them they were done incorrectly. They kept putting it off. The Dentist left and started his own Aspen Dental. The dentist after him also said they did it wrong so they would do it correctly. Now they are saying they can not stand by their word. I had an some doubt because while sitting in the waiting room on several different occasions I could hear them gouging people. I reiterated that I have SLE LUPUS and I can't have infections in my mouth. It could cost me my life. They were not concerned at all. They charged my insurance on a day I wasn't even there. I will report the fraud. They only care about money. DO NOT USE ANY ASPEN DENTAL CARE. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU.

My first initial experience was not great I wasn't a lot of pain they did nothing for that then I had dentures that literally would just fall out and was told Dentures aren't going to fit because I have no teeth of course I got upset and I called and I told him how upset I was but they did make it right they had me come back in they did the whole process and got me some Dentures actually fit

Apen Dental is the worst on all accounts! poor service, con artists! Do not waste your time or money!

This company is the worst space for anyone looking to fix large issues with their teeth. They make tons of money off the uninsured and the vulnerable. It’s a well oiled machine of fast pace fancy machines and tv to show you your mouth and all the issues convincing you with fancy language that you need them. The xray process makes you feel like your getting some thing special for the initial cost. Then they cart you to the room here the dental hygienist comes in and with a fancy tool she takes images of your teeth which will show up in a tv screen so you can see for yourself. Then she begins to number off in a series of number 1 2 3 2. 3 3 and so on the issues with your teeth. They give you hope by telling you the PLAN before they can do what you actually came in for they MUST bring you in several times to clean scrape etc. The debris comes in and tell you his plan of action fill cavities you need a crown wick is done in 2 parts. He says don’t worry we will come up with a plan….. they bring you into a separate area to wait for the very upbeat appointment and financial advisor where she books appointments and shows you again a diagram of your teeth that need fixing talking very quickly and giving you an iPad to fill out your financial information. I finally said ok ok what is the total she said press this button on the pad the total was over 10 grand I nearly fell out she said well you can try to apply for financing It’s a third party company they say not a hard inquiry but it was. Long story don’t go it’s literally like they were trying to con me I to buying a car. Terrible and actually very sad. Most insurance companies do actually cover the services and if you don’t have health coverage go to the by states market place affordable care. I sat in the parking lot and called my insurance company and asked lots of questions to find out they actually cover what I need I didn’t think they did bc of what a prior dentist told me. Always check yourself trust no one when it comes to your health these ppl rob you blind I will never ever be back

I was profiled, ah, my lord.So the fact that I needed oral surgery, I got turned down after we were ready to go here, and he said yes.But then they said no, not whither.Without sedation, that's it, he profiled me and I was done.This is good news

Called yo verify they treated dental emergencies and was told yes made appointment for that day for my husband. Which his entire side of his face from temple to jaw was severely swollen and he was in horrible pain. We arrived and when they took him back they continued to pull on and shove things in his mouth even after he told them multiple times it was causing more pain. They stated his blood pressure was very hight at this same time. Im a nurse and no matter what the patient is the only one who knows how intense their pain is and they disregarded everything he told them. They didn't pull the broken tooth at all instead set him down trying to get him to finance $9000 work of dentures. We left there in more pain then we arrived with and nothing done over 2 hours later. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone nor will we ever be returning there.

Very unprofessional experience at Aspen Dental. The Office/Finance Manager was rude, dismissive, and spoke to patients in a condescending manner.
What was most concerning was that private financial matters were discussed openly at the front desk, within earshot of other patients. This should never happen those conversations need to be handled in a private setting to protect patient confidentiality.
Between the poor attitude and lack of respect for privacy, this visit left a very negative impression. Aspen Dental seriously needs to address professionalism and how patients are treated. These type of behavior will make a bad name for a company.Customer Service training definetly needs to be put in place.

Went to Aspen dental for s broken tooth
Ended up getting my teeth pulled. Now I have dentures I can’t even wear. When they pulled my teeth two broke into pieces instead of them cutting them out. One tooth bleed like a bloody nose for over ten minutes. They said it will be 6 months before I get my permit dentures never heard of such a thing. After I get my dentures and last cleaning I will not be going back

I went to Aspen Dental when having some minor pain in one of my teeth when biting and chewing. They x-rayed my teeth and explained to me that I had a very large cavity that would require a root canal. They even showed me the x-ray and pointed to something that I could barely see. I was surprised that a tooth that just recently started hurting and had such minor soreness would need a full root canal with sedation, so I scheduled a second opinion appointment at another office. They told me that I did not have a cavity at all, it was simply a piece of food stuck in between my teeth. They were able to remove the food, and my symptoms immediately went away. I will never trust Aspen Dental with my healthcare again.

I scheduled for a regular cleaning. After they did xrays I asked repeatedly if my insurance was covering what they were doing and they said yes. Got put at a sales desk with two quotes for "needed" work. One was $8,000 the other $4, 000.... they also told me that I had periodontal disease and could't get a regular cleaning. I had to pay $300 cash for supposedly what my insurance would not cover. They did the deep clean. Later I looked at the proposed quotes and they had tacked on a $3,000 elective treatment that i didn't need or ask for. Even though I rejected the proposed treatment plans and paid $300 cash to "cover what ins wouldn't " Now I have a bill for $1300 for a tooth cleaning. I actually felt violated when I left there and can't believe in this day and age a business can get away with this. The are definitely scammers! Don't make the costly .istake i did. I also saw another dentist since then and I do NOT have periodontal disease. Apparently they do this to a LOT of people to upsale.
