I'm pretty dentist-phobic in general. Not a reflection of a bad experience, just an extreme fear. Anyway, I had a broken molar that needed to be removed. I was a little surprised that patients have to pay in full before making an appointment with an oral surgeon. I do suppose though that last minute cancellations and no-shows can be pretty costly to the business, so it's not an unreasonable ask. The day of the removal I wasn't in the waiting room for long, and the procedure was virtually pain free. It was also convenient that I was able to get a weekend appointment for no additional cost. I have more dental work that I plan to have done and I'd say that Aspen is where I'll be continuing to go.

I can’t yet speak to the quality of dentistry yet as I have only had the $29 exam but I would like to speak to the many other reviews that have posted.nI knew I was “in for it” after 51yrs of not seeing a dentist all my life. I need one extraction with the one that I went there for and was quoted only under $150 for that to be done. I have quite a busy schedule but they are trying their best to accommodate what I have available to make it in there. $150 is below par for what dentists charge typically. I have a mouth packed full of cavities (some are quite bad). With missing 2 teeth(ones that are important for chewing) they recommend 2 bridges that I already had quoted by another local dentist. For the 2, they are right at the same cost as the would be “cheaper” guy.nThe cavities, being most of my teeth were ballpark $1600. That’s a deal honestly. The bridges, I think I’ll head over the border for those.nThe manager there, Nichia(spelling???) first gave me a quite higher quote but being I’m not a man of means, she had a magic button that made everything a lot more comfortable. I’m not sure what qualifies a person for that button, just don’t know how that got offered to me. She just did.nAs originally said, I can’t yet speak to the quality of the doctor yet except to say she seemed very kind and educated.nThe negative reviews I’ve been reading… what? Check other practices before posting that this facility is so expensive. It’s right where the others are. Yes, any dental is expensive but I deserve that for not taking care of things ever before in my life. $29 for the exam(plus X-rays) to see what cost I’m looking at cannot be achieved by the patient anywhere else I looked for.nOthers have mentioned Mexico and I get that completely. I will take that chance for the bridges. This facility is not overpriced though in comparison to what else I’ve seen. I just wanted to write this review to contrast the prices others have mentioned. It’s a fair deal from my recent experience with a clean office and very competent doc. This is only one man’s experience but I’m not at all shocked at their prices. It’s right with the “going rate”. I wish you all well. I hope people will be more kind with the reviews or consider Mexico. Yes, that cannot be beat.
