Denture care after teeth extraction
On the 12th of December 2021 I went in to Aspen dental in Branson MO. One of the teeth that help hold the partial I had went bad so Doctor M. Kapilikisha said the tooth wasn't solid enough in the bone to warrant the work it needed to repair it. It wasn't solid any more and got sore when I chewed very much. I had just 2 teeth left. They took impressions and...
Read full complaintI'm at 1 year and have no finished product
I would not recommend this place to anyone! Aspen dental is the mcdonald's of dentistry I started in april of 2021 we're just a week short of one year and I have not received a finished product. The whole office is incompetent, the regional manager matt is very incompetent and childish and josh tracy the sales director has not returned my call. At this point i'm talking with attorneys, oregon board of dentistry and i've contacted and filed a complaint with the attorney general of oregon. You cannot negotiate with aspen they will screw you any way they can! They have since terminated me as a patient because they cannot create a product that fits my mouth. This is where they're incompetence lies i've never seen the same doctor twice because they're flying in doctors from all over the country to fill temporary positions. They are trying to stay afloat. I pray and hope and can't wait until the aspen dental office doors are closed permanently in roseburg oregon. My best advice to anyone is don't go, don't waste your time, don't waste your energy because you will be 100% disappointed. You've been warned.
Terrible terrible terrible! Started with them in april of 2021... Still waiting on delivery... Doctor's always sick and calling in... I'm pretty sure now that after this week I have had 12 rescheduling calls. I requested a refund and they offered $3000.00 of the 8000.00 I have paid! They also demanded the appliances back within 90 days... Okay, here's my dilemma... How can I get new appliances in 90 da
Ys when aspen dental has yet to even deliver the products. And we are going on 11 months! If they can't perform their obligation in over 300 days I ask, how can I get this done somewhere else in 90 days? I wouldn't recommend thier services to anyone after my ordeal. The dentists and hygienists seem somewhat okay. It's the management in the office that cannot coordinate and operate this location as needed. Something needs to be done. I have read multiple reviews about aspen dental and it's not pretty. Wish I would have checked reviews before I went there...
Desired outcome: Compensation and the doors be closed at Aspen dental in Roseburg Oregon

Implants
Took my son in to a consult for (2) implants that he needed. We went to the Merritt Island, Fl Aspen office. Dr. Gillan was sure he would get the implants done beautifully for him. We went through the painful process of getting him "ready" for the implants to be put in. Once the implants were done it wasnt long before one of them fell out. We went back to the office and Dr. Gillan basically glued it back on and told us it should not happen again.
I was under the impression the implants were PERMAMANT fixtures. This should not have even happened once. Well here we are again and it fell out for a 2nd time. Called the Merritt Island office back to find out the Dr Gillan is no longer with Aspen. We were able to get him evaluated immediately at the Viera Aspen Dental office. However, upon examination we were told it would cost us another $2,544 to fix the issue. So I have already paid over $8,000 for the implants themselves and now you are wanting me to pay another $2,544 for your companies mistakes? I am disgusted by this. Aspen should stand by their work and the doctors they hire and correct this at no charge. How insane to as me to pay to fix something you were suppose to do correctly in the first place? Is this the reputation this company really wants to have? Not only did my son have to endure a very painful process for this procedure I do believe he is tramatized over it. Now he lives every day wondering when his teeth are going to fall out at any given time. Shame on this company.
Desired outcome: I would like for this company to do the right thing and fix my sons implants correctly so he does not have to worry about this moving forward. There should be NO cost to us associated with correcting this for him.
Incomplete service and overcharge
On Jan 24, 2022, I went to see a doctor at Aspen Clinic, 4307 13th Street, Saint Cloud, FL 34771. My chordal at the right upper side of my mouth was very sensitive and could not chew on that side. I need it a simple extraction. I was informed by Aspen that I needed an X-ray and oral exam. Once the exam was performed, they informed me that I had an infection...
Read full complaintMisdiagnosis prolonged pain and suffering
On January 22nd I was seen at Aspen dental as an emergency walk in due to severe tooth pain. After some x-rays the dentist spent less than a minute with me telling me that I had a broken crown and fractured root canal resulting in an abscess.
He told me the tooth would need extracted and an implant placed. They quoted three procedures from a dental bridge and a removable plate to a complete implant. The cost of these ranged from $3, 000 to $8, 000.
Sent on my way, still in severe pain I had no recourse but to seek treatment with another dentist on January 24th. The next dentist took their own x-rays and discovered that there was not fracture, broken crown or root canal issue and the only issue was the abscess. This was confirmed by an endodontist on January 25th and I was given antibiotics and await a date to drain the abscess.
Aspen dental's misdiagnosis of a broken crown extended my pain and suffering as I had to wait for a second opinion. If I had followed their advice I would have undergone a very costly and unnecessary procedure and would be left with a dental prosthetic where one is not needed.
I am appalled by their business practices as in speaking with others it has become clear that Aspen has a track record of trying to sell expensive and unnecessary dental procedures and taking advantage of their patients.
I truly hope a class action lawsuit is filed. I will put my name boldly on the claim.
3 malpractice and consumer fraud
Hello, I believe 100% that Aspen used sales tactics on me sneaking additional charges in and no giving any information on my dental insurance coverage. Additionally, malpractice has been performed. I was overdiagnosed for gingivitis and they continued to tell me I needed to come in to do different procedures like scaling and root planing while my insurance...

Over charged and never did get my dentures had to go to another dentist to get dentures I'm very upset that I paid all that money and didn't even get my dentures
Karen Liles Lucasville Ohio
Combination of malpractice and consumer fraud.
Charged me $1200+ for cleaning. Filled two teeth, and one filling fell out after 30 days. I initially payed $600 up front. They billed insurance my max allowance of $1000 and invoiced me an additional $663. So, a total cost of $2263 for services. The cleaning took less than 20 minutes. They also tried to charge me $135 for a toothbrush. There are other vague charges on the invoice as well.

I went to My regular Dentist 6 days prior to going to Aspen Dental. I went to Aspen Dental who said I qualified for "Finacial Aide"Aspen Dental pulled 2 of the wrong teeth and gave me partial dentures that don't fit and don't work. I never went back because Aspen Dental "Lied" about "Finacial Aide". I'm now being sued for close to $4, 000.00. The law firm Rausch Strum sued me and have broken several Federal and State Collection Laws In addition Rausch Strum have perjured themselves in their response to Federal complaints with the Federal Consumer Finacial Protection Bureau. Aspen Dental, Galaxy International and Rausch Strum Law Firm are All Crooks and need to be Stop!

I had an appointment with Aspen Dental in Bristol, Tn. for Jan.11, 2022 for 10.15 am and I waited until 2 o'clock in the afternoon and still had not been called in. They were taking everyone else in front of me that came after my appt. time and just letting me sit there and wait. I finally just left after driving 1 1/2 hrs to get there. Wasted trip. I would not recommend them to anyone. Thank You > Dave Alexander Jr.

Read full complaintOverbilling - Did Not Receive Advertised Discount
I went to my local Aspen Dental office, in Mohegan Lake, New York on December 7, 2021. At that time, I was only looking for treatment for an infection, although I did need extensive dental work. I was told that I could get all of my treatment needs met within days; they took impressions for dentures that day. I came back the next day for a minor issue, and the extractions were done on the third day, December 9, 2021.
I have dental insurance, and after determining what the insurance was responsible for, my obligation totaled over $7, 000, which I paid in full before the extractions were done.
Since my treatment, I learned that I was supposed to receive a 20% discount or the insurance pricing, whichever is greater - according to what is/was on the Aspen Dental website. There were no qualifiers in order to receive the discount. Since I have insurance, I should have received the insurance pricing, which I did not. When I called the local office to inquire about the discount, I was told that they discounted my insurer... That is not what they advertised, and I want the discount that I did not receive, nor was I made aware of such discount.
I hope this can be resolved without legal action, which I plan to initiate if Aspen Dental does not honor their promise to new patients.
Please advise.
