Aspen Dental rip off and false diagnosis

I visited the Mishawaka, IN location of Aspen Dental because it was the only place that gave me a 'discount' on my dental plan. After a 2 hour HORRIBLE and painful experience getting xrays and the free 'examination', I was told I had 8 cavities and periodontal disease. I have never had a cavity or any dental issues. The final bill for recommended treatment after the 'discount' was going to be $3, 500! I walked out and visited a real dentist. After xrays, cleaning, and exam, I was told I had ZERO cavities and my gums were fine - no periodontal disease or gingivitis. Aspen Dental is a COMPLETE RIP OFF and SCAM! After asking around and sharing my story I have heard of numerous people with the same experience!

Aspen Dental service and fraud

I made an appointment as a new patient for my 6 month check-up. We just moved into the Reading area and Aspen Dental accepted our insurance. I sat in the waiting room (the office staff was very friendly) for 20 minutes. Was given a full set up x-rays and then taken to an exam room where I sat for an additional 25 minutes. The dentist came back, looked at my teeth and then told me I needed to see the office manager to set up an appointment for a cleaning. I was shocked! Why else had I just gone to the dentist? Now, my insurance will be billed for an office visit that is not even legitimate and I must take off another day of work to see a legitmate dentist. She also informed me I had a cavity and upon a 2nd consult, this was not true.

Our doctors are focused on providing comprehensive care, which means that we not only want to address any immediate problems that may cause pain or discomfort in the short-term, but also recommend dental treatment for long-lasting good health. This is why your doctor did not perform a cleaning on your initial visit, he needed to first examine your mouth and determine which type of cleaning would be the best fit for your needs.

Aspen Dental tooth extraction/dry socket

I went to Aspen to have a tooth extracted. It was difficult because the tooth was sharp and broken off as the filling had fallen out. I realized it was not healing. I believe he the dentist ( professional) had sewn the inside of my cheek to the gum. After a week of terrible pain, I went back in with dry socket, and infection. She (another dentist) cleaned and packed it, But she would NOT listen to my complaint of how it was stitched. She wanted me back in two days. On Wed. 24th of Mar. (another day from hell, another doctor. Dr. Markovitch!(butcher)! I proceeded to tell him how much pain I was in and he started telling me he was the Dr. and he knew what was wrong...DRY SOCKET! He started to poke around in my mouth (tender and sore and swollen). He asked if he could work on it without novocaine and I said no. He gave me two shots of whatever that did not take! He then went on to dig and clean and stitch when I could feel everything. Seriously I would rather have a baby than go through that pain again. He did not care...I was crying and yelling and he said, " WE have a screamer here!" He was cold, uncaring and rude to me! I was there three times in 9 days and no one could fix the problem because no one would listen...The stitching wouldn't hold because it's wrong. The infection won't go away because the hole won't close, and I am still in a lot of pain! I don't wish this kind of treatment on anybody. So, if you want to be treated like a human being, do NOT go to Aspen Dental!

Aspen Dental - deep cleaning scam

I went to aspen dental with my "free x-rays and cleaning" coupon...I did get my x-rays, but they said they could *not* clean my teeth because I needed a "deep cleaning" procedure that would cost over $700 (the procedure sounded lengthy and painful, so I never even considered it). There other costs were very high, so I ended up at another dental office...

Aspen Dental inferior work

I got dentures from aspen dental. Foolishly agreed to upgrade my package to the "best" dentures and now I am afraid i'm stuck. Not only do they fit poorly but the doctor doesn't seem to even know how to fix the fit. I'm on my second one and it really isn't any better.

Aspen Dental lied to take money

Aspen dental is the worst dentist I've ever been to totally lied to me to get my cash of 2, 000.00 and then did'nt finish the job stayed in pain until I got a new dentist now my smile is a smile Yeah for real dentist check there credentials before doing anything to your mouth like check to see if they have a college degree because if your getting partials they'll be some kind of imitation goop that dries and causes your gum's nothing but pain . There moving into these cities fast like Keizer, Oregon to take peoplesmoney if you go to a Dr.Charles hartman you better have him check your eyes because he does't know anything about teeth!{GUARANTEED}

Aspen Dental what a joke of a con job

I went to Aspen Dental for a cleaning. They claimed to be giving free xrays and exam.
When I saw the dentist, she claimed I needed 10 (ten) crowns at $900 per crown. Also, I needed new upper and lower partial dentures, and scaling procedures. I asked if I had any cavities and the dentist replied "I don't see any cavities". I explained that nothing was wrong with my current upper and lower partials. She replied, "they are too old after eight years." I asked what was wrong with the four crowns I already had. She replied, "they have to go". She said my "gums bled" when she examined me. When flossing or brushing, I've never had bleeding. Then I was escorted to the financial person to apply for a loan. What a joke! All I can say is: they prey on gray haired women...DON'T GO THERE, RUN AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN. I hope I escaped by not making another appointment and I did not fill out application for loan. Somehow, I have a feeling they are going to try to get money for xrays, and con job exam that is advertised as free.

Aspen Dental unprofessional

I have my share of fillings. Couple of weeks ago one of my fillings became loose and fell out along with part of my tooth. As a regular patient I was hoping to be seen just by the dentist to fix the problem. Since I was due for my cleaning…. (by few weeks) I HAD to have a cleaning appointment FIRST. My appointment was at 3 pm. I arrived there 15 minutes prior. #1, my chart was missing and nowhere to be found. #2, after getting to the office at 2:45pm I was not called in until 4:20pm! #3 I had to have the whole series of x-rays done (not just the broken tooth) to make sure everything was OK, . At that point, I was told that I don’t need just a regular cleaning…. I need the works! This is 4:45 pm. The office closes at 5 pm…. So I wasn’t able to have a cleaning, my tooth was still cracked AND I was told by the dentist that reviewed my x-rays that I need 3 ROOT CANALS! BUT, but the lady in the front will gladly set something up for me. So, it is pass 5 pm already, now I’m stressing over the 3 root canals, as I walk to the friendly lady in the front. Within minutes I had a print out of an estimate for my 3 root canals, BUT since I have insurance I ONLY need to pay a % of it... So, I figure since I’m here might as well schedule my appointment for my root canals.

Well, the dentist that does the root canals is only there 2 days a month AND to secure a spot with her, I need to pay a 50 % deposit to HOLD my spot. So now it’s about 5:20 pm on a Friday night, after working all day, hungry, with my gums cut up from the x-ray film, agitated to no end, and asked to dish out $3000 right then and there, I said I will have to call them back on it. That was the last time I stepped foot in that office.

During my visit I asked the x-ray tech if they were busy, and he actually said that it was a slow evening. I asked the hygienist if they were busy and he confirmed that they had a slow evening, When I mentioned that I was practically falling asleep in the waiting room for 1 ½ hours, all I got was a dumbfounded look and no explanation. When I approached the friendly lady in the front about the 1 ½ hour wait, she did not have an answer for me either.
I am appalled at the service in that office! Unprofessional & unorganized!
Since then, I did contact my insurance company and informed them of a poor choice of a provider.

Aspen Dental service

I went in as a new patient for a cleaning. I moved to the area about a year and 1/2 ago and had not yet seen a dentist. I saw my last dentist every six months and had seen him in the month I moved. Aspen was in the network of my dental carrier and location was convienent. They took approximately 25 X-rays and then the dentist reviewed and took a look at my teeth. They said they could not clean my teeth that day, since they claimed I needed a deep cleaning and that they had to do the cleaning in sections. I then met with the "financical counselor" who presented a bill for $3500, after insurance it was $1500. Besides the deep cleaning, they choose to refill all of my fillings, flush out my gums, floride, coating for my gums, etc. After I spent 1/2 hours having her explain all the charges and eliminating them, repeatedly saying all I wanted was a cleaning, I got the bill down to $300 (after insurance). I scheduled the appointments. After considering all the services they tried to get me to do, I decided this was not a business I was going to support and cancelled. I will find a small local dentist without the fancy packaging.

There are two reasons that I decided to get a new dentist. One is that of all the visits for dental work at the Lady Lake office, my file has been misplaced every time. Other patients in the waiting room that were waiting also had their files misplaced also. Not an organized office. The second reason is that my confidence in the dental services at Aspen Dental was always very low due to the stories I heard while living in Cleveland, Ohio, but two times while getting a cleaning I asked if the dentist can look at the tooth they put a crown on because after the permanent crown was put on in the Lady Lake office, I have been having pain on and off in that tooth. The Aspen Dental dentist said nothing looked wrong. About a week ago I went to an emergency appt. with my new dentist elsewhere, and the pain in my tooth was do to an infection in the tooth. I need another root canal on that tooth as well as the one next to it. Aspen Dental did not seem to care about my tooth pain, and the infection in the tooth they put a crown on. Now I get to pay another couple of thousand dollars. Yippee. So I switched. l

Aspen Dental failure to discolse information and charged for 1st visit

I went to Aspen dental because I was having a problem with a tooth and I had just joined a benefit plan and they were on the list. It was my first vistit there and and they had a sign in the window free exam and x-rays for new patients. The dentist looked at the tooth in question and took an xray and told me to go to an endodontist. To my shock I was charged $89.00! fo a 3 minute exam. I paid the vist not thinking because I was overwhelmed with the result and being a widow and having no dental insurance I knew this other dentist would be a large bill. However, I went back the next day to inquire as to why I was charged being a new patient . I was told it was because I had only 1 tooth looked at and not the entire mouth. I explained that I was NEVER informed that I could get my entire mouth examined for FREE and I had to pay for ONE tooth. They were more or like "too bad". Had I known, I would have had my entire mouth looked at. No proceedures were done on the tooth. I went to work and found out that my co-worker had the SAME tooth problem as I did, however hers was FREE because she was also a new patient and had her ENTIRE mouth x-rayed. I believe this is blatent "lack of FULL disclosure" and I should be refunded my visit price of $89.00 because had I known I would have opted for the FREE exam and they would have found the problem anyway with the exam. I informed them I would lodge a complain and go to the BBB and corporate office.

I also went to Aspen Dental as a new patient because of the initial exam and xrays being "free", however because I am familiar with Insurance and "hidden fees" upon going in for my first appt, (I Have Dental Insurance) I asked and demanded that the first appt was free...I was told, if you have insurance we bill the insurance company but if you don't than we don't. I demanded that they don't bill the insurance for my initial exam and xrays, or I wouldnt be using them, and they did not bill my insurance or charge me anything. I do think Aspen should disclose this to the customer, due to my reasons as I have a yearly max with my insurance and those "free" charges do apply to the max the insurance covers yearly...! I since have had extractions done and an intermediate denture made and put in...I am on week 6 and am hoping my permanant denture is made better than this intermediate one which from the beginning did and does not line up, and also is way to wide for my mouth, and pallett. Hoping I won't have to come visit this site again and make any complaints.

Aspen Dental shady/false charges

I went in for a checkup, i knew i would need the deep cleaning. They did their checkup and told me i needed a full mouth debriment (deep cleaning) a small cavity and a dental guard. The total was 617, they told me that my insurance didn't cover the cavity and only a little of the deep cleaning, i knew the dental guard wasn't covered. So i had all the work done and paid in full my first visit. I had 3 different visits and each time they gave me electric tooth brush (junk) next was some mouth wash, and last was toothpaste, now i was never told i was getting charged for any ot the 3 items. My last visit i was told i owed another 73 dollars that the insurance company didn't cover, so i asked why and i was shown a paper with all the coverages, non-coverages, " in house discounts" and my payments. I saw on the paper i was charged 135 for the toothbrush, 24 for the toothpaste and 24 for the mouth wash. So i said i never was told i was getting charged for these things, i would of never taken them if i knew i was getting charged for them. Also i found out my insurance covered alot more then they told me, another shady business practice. I demanded to get a full refund of these 3 items and they told me they couldn't cause i already used them, i told them that you lied to me and there isn't any paper work that has them on it that i signed. Needless to say they didn't want to refund me the money, so i told them well i am legally right and if you don't refund me the money then i will take legal action. So guess what they said they would refund me the money for the 3 items, which i am still waiting for, but its only been 15 days and my credit card company said wait 30 days then if no credit then they will go after Aspen Dental. But last time i called (last week) and asked about when exactly the credit was done i was told it was put in like 15 days ago, but i was also told i owed another 139 dollars, i laughed. So DO NOT go to aspen dental, they will use shady business practices to make you pay for things you don't want or don't know you are getting. I will get a lawyer if they insist i owe them more money.

Gave 1 start because had no choice.
DO NOT GO THIS PLACE !
Aspen Dental DESTROYED ME PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY.
And corporate doesn't even care, They need to be shut down.
For 1 year now i have had an infection, was told i had bone loss as i see others have been told.
I live in pain everyday, I was told 3 teeth had to be pulled that there was no other option for me, the doctor ended up pulling 6 of my teeth out, i was devastated i was treated awful in there, it was like being slowly tortured.
I went back with a bad infection the Doctor was so rude and didn't even bother to look at me.
I received bills which i have paid cash for what was supposed to be done (gets even better) when i went there I was told the office manager Mariela was no longer there and she took files and they still wanted me to pay even for work i never wanted or agreed on doing.
Since then and having fear of going to dentist now, I was in so much pain i went to 2 different dentist both told me i have No Bone Loss! One dentist told me Aspen is in the business of selling dentures and that's why they do this, this doctor suggested i get my files and xrays .. So i did and the day i went to pick all xrays and what was left of files I noticed all new staff, the woman at the Desk was trying to sell me to another doctor there (No Thanks) she told me the doctor who destroyed my mouth doesn't work at that office anymore.
Now i need to have surgery where they have to cut my almost 3 inches long do to bone fragments & root that was left in my mouth was also told that the infection i have can not wait and could be very dangerous. I don'thave the money for this surgery and to fix all the damage that was done.

I call corporate spoke to.a woman Julie who told me a woman Tricia would call me back and she never did..
Since i was even received a call back I guess I'm left no choice to take legal action just to fix the mess Aspen Dental did to my mouth.
Aspen does not care about people, all they care about is pulling your teeth out so they can sell you dentures that you don't need.

I cried when other dentist told me those teeth were wrongfully pulled and i have no bone loss like i was told.
I'm glad i have my xrays from Aspen Dental proof.
They have destroyed my face and my life, I still cry everyday over this.

DON'T DO IT!
I have issues with the nerves in my lower jaw getting numb since I had jaw surgery several years ago. The first time I needed a root canal after the surgery, neither my dentist nor I were aware that I wasn't numb and in drilling hit a live nerve. I cannot begin to describe the pain. My dentist was in tears and referred me to an endodontist who took care of my tooth very well. This endodontist has moved her practice to another city and I needed to find a new one. I explained all of this to the dentist at Aspen Dental in Estero and referred me to the endodontist in Ft. Myers. I was told I would have valium plus nitrous oxide to lessen my anxiety. When I was in the chair i experienced some things that caused rather than lessened my anxiety.
1. No nitrous oxide
2. The initial shot of novicain REALLY, REALLY hurt. I told the dentist and she, without compassion said, "It's a shot, it's going to hurt."
3. The second shot hurt as well. I knew my jaw wasn't going numb because I could feel the needle. Once again I was told, "It's a shot, it's going to hurt."
4. When the assistant put the dam on my face my nose was covered and I held it so that I could breath. The dentist told her to fix the dam so that I could breath. I'm no dental assistant or anything close, but isn't it kind of a no brainer that a patient should be able to breath?
5. While testing to see if I was numb enough, the assistant ran the suction hose over the gums under my lower central, lateral and canine incisors, which hurt. I told her to stop because I could still feel pain. Again I was told I was going to feel some pain. I know that suction shouldn't be painful so my anxiety level soared and right as the dentist started drilling I told her to stop and I got out of there like a bat out of hell.
6. My best friend was there to provide transportation. I started to tell her everything that had happened and the assistant tried to defend herself and told me to lower my voice. I told her I'd lower my voice when she stopped talking to me. She left and so did I.
My husband checked our credit card for our refund daily for the next two weeks. On work day I called Aspen to find out what was holding up my refund. I was told it should appear on next months statement. I told her we monitor our CC online daily to protect against ID theft and their credit should have been processed about four days ago. We received the credit within 48 hours.
I did have the work done at the office of an endodontist who is in practice by himself. My advice is to stay away from franchises and go to smaller practices.

I have also had issues with over paying my husband was charged $10 for his visit then when I had my visit a short time later they said I had to pay a bill of $29 before they would see me. I said for what they said my husband still owed $29. Why didn't they tell him that at his visit why are they telling me?

Another time they said my insureance would not cover my cleaning because it had not been 6mo yet they were wrong it had been 6mo and I had to make them pay me back for wbat the insurance did cover.

Aspen Dental horrible service

I went to Aspen Dental about two weeks ago for 1 extraction and have never been so upset or in so much pain in my life! I had the procedure on Thursday and by Friday I clearly had dry socket and my "hole" was extremly infected and leaking puss into my mouth like crazy. Im pregnant so I didn't smoke to cause this to myself and Im not really supposed to be taking pain meds but I ended up having to since these people wouldn't help me! I called Saturday and spoke to the man who pulled the tooth and he wouldn't see me because he was 90% sure it couldn't be dry socket and was sure it wasn't infected just claimed it was my sinus leaking. I suffered in terrible pain ALL DAY Saturday and Sunday! Finally Sunday night we tried calling him again and he wouldln't answer his phone nor would he call back the page. I was crying for the last two hours becasue even after taking pain meds the pain was insane and I couldn't even stand to be in my own skin. Finally their lead dentist called back and my husband told her I NEEDED to be seen asap he's never seen me in so much pain and all she had to say what she better stop taking pain meds its bad for the baby (they wrote me the script for the meds mind you) and we can see her tomorrow morning, def not tonight. Can anyone else believe this? I felt so hopeless and knew I couldn't stand the pain and oozing until the next day so I called a local area dentist who saw me in 10 minutes and helped my out with numbing it, cleaning it, and treating me for dry socket! I felt relief after this man worked on me for 10 minutes tops! I coudnll't BELIEVE that a big place like Aspen wouldn't send ONE person in to see me and treat me for dry socket, have they never had this to know who horrible it is especially when you can't take pain meds? Id like to see them go through it thats for sure. So here I am almost two weeks later still in awful pain because my jaw bone is haning out there in the air constantly causing me dry socket pain and as of this morning they told me I will probably have this pain for 4 more weeks because its going to take 4-6 weeks for the gum to close over the bone. I have to just accept it and thats that, be thankful im not in the hospital like some people after extractions. wow really they mess people up so bad at aspen that they have to be hospitalized? How is this place still in operation and not being looked into by higher ups? Im disgusted and want to scream from the roof tops to STAY AWAY from aspen dental, they do not care about their patients and its a sad sad thing going on there.

Aspen Dental malpractice, etc.

Aspen Dental not only messed-up my wisdom teeth removal (which put me in the ER). They also repeatedly told me I owed them nothing and then a year after the services I start to get collections calls. It turns out they wanted me to submit a claim to the insurance company, because they would not do it for me. It then took another two months for me to get what I needed from Aspen to submit the claim, Meanwhile, they refused to remove it from the collections so I was repeatedly getting collection calls. As of right now Aspen has not paid for the ER visit, removed the account from Collections, or bothered to offer any compensation for me to submit on their behalf. I would strongly recommend against Aspen Dental, unless you wish to suffer permanent damage to your face.

The short version of my review: If you love your health, teeth, money and your sanity. Do not go here.

Long version:

In January this year I went to Aspen Dental after another dentist detected multiple cavities in my teeth (hadnt gone in 2years. dont do that!). I thought I could get dental care on the cheap by subscribing to some dental plan and then going to Aspen Dental (which is the only place nearby that accepts it).

Well, let me tell you: While the offices look clean and have nice TVs, I am not sure the dentists there actually have real degrees. As a result of my treatment there I have now a cracked tooth in one of my back teeth, which has since needed root canal treatment and a crown - which of course I havent let them do. On my top right I am still experiencing pain. It is driving me nuts. Now it turns out there is one tooth treated by Aspen Dental, where the filling is also extremely deep and now leaking, needing replacement. My endodontist says it may be another cracked tooth.

My new dentist told me that the material they used wasnt correct given the size of the filling and that the filling most likely caused the crack when the material condensed over time.

Apart from that you will be treated like cattle. Dentists barely talk to you and couldnt care less what is going on with you. Although I wouldnt mind that if they would do their job right.

The only thing I would ever get done here again is a cleaning and thats it. I wish I would have invested the money and had avoided the last 5 months of pain (and ongoing).

Aspen Dental services and products

They are very unprofessional and I had wrote to the Better Business Bureau about what they did to me. I went in for some crowns and they set me up with getting partials and the service was terrible. They messed up everytime and kept sending me back in for different reasons. The partials took 3 weeks to come in and they didn't fit right. They kept adjusting them and they still didn;t fit right. I had gotten an abses from them and they told me there was nothing they could do, it was my mouths fault that their partials didn't fit correctly. Than they sent me to another Aspen Dental and they redid them after my complaint and those still were made poorly and didn't fit my mouth. piece had broken off and they blamed me, all this had cost me over $5000. I will never go back there again. Their finance person Kevin is rude and made me feel this was all my fault, when they are the professionals (or supposed to me). I was just going along with their advice because they are supposed to know this stuff not me. Worst dental company out there.

Aspen Dental overcharging after insurance payment.

I went to their office a few days ago. They were rude when I would not commit to almost $2000.00 in charges or dentures. They were selling me on financing at 13.90% apr. when I would not sign up ffor these charges, they had me sign a refusal form.

I called my insurance company to find out what they allowed for several services. I found the charges they had quoted me were very inflated, and the insurance told me Aspen cannot charge me over what is allowed for the services they perform.

When I told Aspen I had been overcharged they said it is my responsibility to pay the difference. I tried to tell them I was only responsible for what the insurance agreement says is my responsibility. All the charges were fraudulent. I filed a complaint with my insurance company. I also will be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and the Attorney General.

Aspen Dental overcharge - possible ins fraud

I made an appointment and went in for a basic tooth cleaning telling them that was the only service I wanted. I had seen them earlier for a couple of fillings and a crown which was basically mediocre work at best, but I have a very busy schedule and most dentist schedules are hard for me to fit into. At that time, I was deluged with a plethora of sales pitches about other products and services that I told them specifically I did not want.

When I got there for my cleaning, I was presented with a bill, before any treatment started and without any initial consult, for $441.50. I was floored by this. They had added additional procedures that I had specifically requested not to have and even added an expensive electric toothbrush to the bill. I said that all I wanted was a basic cleaning and that was all I was going to authorize and pay for. After 15 min of waiting, they presented me a corrected bill of $11.50 which I paid.

I went into the back for my cleaning and the hygienist spends 15 minutes literally browbeating me to accept these additional services, after all, my insurance will pay for most of it. She treated me like an idiot for not taking these services and that they know better. Then she wanted me to sign papers stating that I refused these additional services. Talk about absolute ridiculousness! I kept trying to tell her to just do what I specifically asked for and got to the point where I said, literally, Shut UP and just clean my teeth. I said that if they didn't, that I would just get up and leave. At that point, the dentist in the next work area comes over and joins the browbeating session. I am reclined in the chair and I just about throw my back out getting up. Their comment: "Don't leave with our stuff", I was still wearing the bib and chain!

I go out and demand a copy of the original bill of $441.50 they presented me with and a refund of my $11.50. They did give me the refund, but refused to give me a copy of the original bill saying that it was Aspen Dental property and I had no right to it. HIPA violation here? All through this process, every employee there was extremely rude! And I thought I was the customer!

After I got home, I went on my insurance company website and found out that Aspen Dental, without my authorization ahead of time, had gotten pre-approvals from my insurance company for Root Scaling and their Visilite cancer screening rip-off product. I think that this is called insurance fraud! I will be filing a complaint both with my insurance company and my state's AG.

My wife and I recently visited a local Aspen Dental (located in Waterford, Connecticut) to see about dentures for both of us. After waiting for over an hour past our appointment times, it took us about one minute to realize that Aspen Dental is a "dental mill". My wife was first to be seen by the dentist, as his assistant sat down to chart, she takes out her pen, then pulls out her iphone and was scrolling around while the dentist was examing her. That was enough for me, or so I thought...then came my turn, I have been told by many dentist that my lower jaw bone will not hold any type of implants (posts) due to bone loss, well guess what the dentist tells me he's gonna do, he's gonna put in posts in my lower jaw bone! That was while he was looking at the x-ray that his assistant took, stating that she DID NOT get my lower jaw bone on the x-ray, but he guessed I had enough bone there to do it! She must have missed the "take a x-ray" app. on her cell phone!
Needless to say, if you pay attention to the manner in which they (or he) presented all the work he would do, all the options they have, etc., etc. it sounds just like a cheesey used car sales pitch.
In conclusion, We are thankfull that we were able to read what others have gone through on this site, and will steer clear of Aspen Dental from now on! Our only hope is that others who are thinking of using Aspen Dental DO THIER HOMEWORK AND REASERCH first.

Aspen Dental teeth extractions

I called Aspen Dental 3 days prior to my visit
I explained everything to them over the phone i told them word for word what my visit is going to consist of while i told the lady who answered the phone that i am in dire need of extractions and dentures..

I was set with an appointment i arrived 20 minutes early no one was at the counter there was a sign in sheet and next to the sign in sheet was tons of clipboards that you had to fill out all of your personal information so i grabbed one and i signed in on the time sheet.

I went and had a seat and began filling out my paper work
once i got done i went up to the counter and once again there was no clerk to look over my paper work..

I waited an hour finally i get seen now mind you i have my xrays with me they tell me that they need more than what i brought
so we go in to the room where they take a boat load of xrays
once that was done they escort me to a seat the Dr comes over to me
and takes a look inside my mouth with a small metal hook device and starts tapping on every single tooth and kept saying hmmm hmmmm hmmmm

then preceds to tell me that i need a full denture set for my upper and lower then he gets up and starts writing on his pad of what it is that needs to be done and then tells me to go to the financial office to discuss payment options

i didnt come in to get a full review of my teeth to begin with in the first place i came in there to get the extraction that i told the lady over the phone i made it very clear to the lady what i needed to be done

they tell me that they do not even have a surgeon at there site of location and that there surgeon comes in on the second week of every month
so whats the surgeon doing when someone needs to have surgery
is he in florida sipping on a martini i mean come on

not only was it a complete waste of my time but i lost 4 hours of missing work only to be told that it was going to cost me 6.621 dollars to have what is needed to be done

then they tell me that they have pay plan but you need to have
2 forms of identification with an expiration date on them

i dont have 2 only one and the price to have all my teeth fixed was competely over the limit with my expense

I feel like i was rushed with the xrays seen by some quack
and didnt even give a damn about my personal needs
and only wanted to have the money more than to have a customers trust

Never Never Again Will i go to Aspen Dental
I warned All my friends and family members on how Aspen Dental treats there patients
its not about the patients or customers
Its all about the money and that is sad very sad

And if your credit is bad or shaky they dont want to do business with you

Aspen Dental false promises, unsatactory work

I have visited Aspen Dental approx. 5 times since June of 09. I have had some expensive work done, including an upper partial and lower partial. I have had many problems with the upper and it is very obvious that there is a partial there. It looks horrible! The upper was attached to a crown which fell out because of removing the partial on a daily basis, I'm guessing loosened the crown. When I returned to the office, I was told we could save the tooth by performing a root canal. The specialist that could perform the root canal would not be in for 2 more weeks, and was told that I would be fine waiting that long. When I went to my appt. I was told that he would not perform the root canal, it was too extensive. Had I know that I would have had it done sooner, and a lot closer to home, I was so angry, I demanded my money back and was told that I would have to wait for the approval from the Syracuse office.
Now with the lover partial, I must have visited the office 3 or 4 times, one of the days being a full day visit. I live and hour and 15 minutes away, I always had to take a full day off work for all of my visits. Why in the world did it take 4 visits for a lower partial is beyond me, but I continued to go there because I had already paid for everything, and instead of the hassle of trying to get sa refund I foolishly continued going. I will NEVER return or recommend ANYONE to ASPEN DENTAL EVER! This has probbably the most horrifying experience I have EVER had with a medical office.

I am a patient of Aspen Dental Manchester, CT. Let me start by saying that the staff is nice. No one has ever been rude to me but that is where the satisfaction stops. The partial I have in my mouth is cutting me. I cannot eat or touch my teeth together. I called several times and went in to see what can be done. I was told that this is normal for partials to experience some pain. I can understand a few days of pain but NOT slicing into me everytime I put my teeth together or try to eat. I am experiencing cutting and gouging of my gums and my tongue ( I keep biting it) I don't see how this can be normal. I have the temporary partial right now but it still cost me about $519.00 so I think it should be right and not hurt me. I cannot get any relief from this pain. Anyone have any experience similar to this and what help did you get? HELP! I can't stand much more of this pain.

Aspen Dental another totally dissatisifed patient

I just finished reading the hundreds of complaints against Aspen Dental. Some of these stories are nightmares that never end.

The comment about the ever changing parade of dentists - totally correct. In the one-year I was a patient - I saw 5 different dentists. They don't stick around and there is no one there to actually follow the patient through out the entire process.

They conveniently broke the mold for my teeth, thereby giving them an excuse for teeth that don't match or fit. I am on set number 3 (including the temp set at the beginning of the process).

The pain is constant and god forbid if you have a full upper and partial lower plate - because they will never line up. After several office visits and attempts to adjust them - they're now so ground down that you cannot wear the lowers at all because not only do they not line up - there isn't anything there to help chew the food. You're actually doomed to eat soft food or soup...period.

They're called ComfyDents and ComfyLites...what a joke. There is nothing - absolutely nothing - comfortable about these teeth.

How do we go about getting a Class-Action law suit against them?

If you find out what we can do, please let me know. I went in Jan. 09 to inquire about full dentures because my teeth were so soft and breaking off and had no luck with crowns. I seen the commercials and felt they were good. The first visits were great. They sucked you right in, rushed to get me in to extract my teeth and put temporary dentures right in. Even though the temps were not perfect, I thought for sure the permanent ones would be. What a mistake. When it came time for the wax try in, the two dentists that were taking care of me were "too" busy and I had some rude foreign female dentist. My teeth didn't fit right, and when I said something about it, I was told not to worry that they will fit. When I got the finished product, the teeth were way up under my lip. I had to curl my top lip up under my nose in order to show the teeth. The top front teeth were even with the roof of my mouth! I could not chew or bite. Even the receptionist said I was talking funny because my tongue would be sticking out of my mouth when I talked. I told the dentist that the teeth were set too far up. The bottom teeth were huge! He said they were fine. After more visits and finally crying, they agreed to redo the teeth. Ha! When they did the was try in for the second set, the teeth went down over my bottom lip. They made a mockery of me. I looked at the dentist and asked him about them being too big. He said figured that's what I wanted. All I wanted was teeth that looked natural and fit properly. He said he would fix it. Now my finished dentures are out like buck teeth and neither the top or bottom fit. I have to glue the top in at least twice a day and the bottom at least 6 to 8 times a day. I cannot go out to eat with out going to the restroom half way through the meal to glue my denture in. This is so embarrassing. And best of all, they don't have time for me anymore! I have half-### teeth and am in depth for $2000. (This does not include what the insurance paid for or what I gave in cash) My sister had dentures for the past 20 years and she does not glue her top ones at all and she glues the bottoms in the morning and they stay all day. She never heard of the problems that I am having. Aspen said this is how it is and they're solution is to get the pin implants. How convenient! This would be an additional $3000! I wonder if they don't make these teeth like this purposely for that reason. I'm miserable and can't eat anything that requires chewing. The teeth move all over the place and come loose. If there is anything that can be done, I would like to know.
