terrible experience
Went to Aspen Dental in Tarentum PA to find my smile. That was about 2.5 yrs. ago. I can not tell you how much trouble these people have caused me. They said all the work would cost over $6000.00. Well We started at the top, I was to have all teeth pulled and a immediate denture and to follow their TOP OF THE LINE DENTURES. Well the first time they made these TOP OF THE LINE DENTURES they must of mixed up my mold with GODZILLA these teeth were HUGH so I tried to have them adjust them. A long story short, the dentist Meredith said, "well thats all I can do for you." I gave her the teeth and said give me a refund. As I was walking out, she said "we need the immediates also" HA HA HA She wanted me to walk out of there with no teeth. yea! So they made a second set, again no fit, better but still could not wear them. After paying over $2100.00, I still have no smile. THEY FOUND MY POCKETS AND TOOK MY MONEY! So I decided to work with CARE CREDIT, that went no where. Finally, Aspen Dental decided to give me credit for those TOP OF THE LINE DENTURES! Well that sounds good, we have a price, because when this all started, their office manager Kim said she would have to call corporate to find out what the price was...duh! So, I paid $546 for the immediate and $845 for them TOP OF THE LINE DENTURES. The rest of the over $2100 plus $400 cash was for the pulling of the teeth. GREAT the immediates fit the best of all they tried, but $546, no way they are worth this, they are ready to fall apart. BUT I DID GET MY CREDIT Good, right...NO CARE CREDIT IS TRYING TO SQUEEZE ANOTHER $300 OUT OF ME. I paid them well over $1200.00 and they got their $845 credit so I say we are even. The lady at Care Credit said well you have some late charge and thats why. She's lucky I paid any thing, eat those late fees. SO here I sit, with bad credit and NO SMILE, hmm PLEASE PEOPLE DO NOT GO TO ASPEN YOU WILL NEVER FIND YOUR SMILE! please don't use CARE CREDIT I think Aspen and the CC are up to no good. FIND A NICE SMALL DENTAL PRACTICE you will be glad you did.

poor dental work
I 've had problems with Aspen Dental at Orange CT, and I have the photos to prove it. The first problem was that the dentist did not orientate me on not to put adhesive over the area where there was still an open cavity in my gums. I was complaining that every time I chewed that my gums hurt as if though I had a tooth ache were there was no tooth. I realized that what was going on was that the adhesive was acting like a plunger within the gum cavity where the tooth was extracted from and was pumping air into, and causing pressure to build up within the gum cavity and of course it was causing pain to the nerves with the tissue. I had told the dentist what was going on and he denied that this was the problem and what he did was grind material from the area where this was happening which was the left rear of the denture. The problem became worst after they had put in the soft liner, because now what the dentist did not realized was that he had grind a whole right through the denture surface and the soft liner was now bubbling up through the whole and acting like a permanent plunger, pumping air into soft liner and creating a bubble that was conforming to the whole in my gum cavity. I tolerated it until not much soon after the denture split right in half from front to back. When I took it to get it repaired I also explained to them about the whole in the rear left tooth and the bubble within the soft liner, which was hurting my gums. They repaired the split to my satisfaction. However after I got home I felt the bubble coming up again and hurting my gums. I took photos of everything and use a magnifying glass to find the problem and sure enough there was still a hole within the area where the bubble on the soft liner was formed. I took it back and they repaired it. Well today I woke up and where the the hole was repaired the arch was split in half with the tooth hanging from it. It has not been six months yet since I have had my dentures, where as I am suppose to get a permanent soft liner put in my dentures, once my gums have completely healed.

Please stay away from this place. They put me in the hospital and a friend of mind ended up in the hospital also. Their prices are outlandish and they do way too much work that is necessary. Myhusband went to them and then after the treatment I received he went to another dentist. He found out he only needed half the work done that they said he needed done and this very professional dentist's prices were much cheaper. They tried to pull a tooth of mine that didn't not need pulling, I have found out they have to make so many bridges and dentures every week. I have a chronic illness and they knew that but they paid no attention to that. The office manager had to tell him, to stop his playing, he was singing, dancing, watching television, stomping his feet and twirling around on his little stool when he should have been working on me. He kept me in the chair over 5 hours. I was informed he was the boss and he paid the bills. Excuse me, but this is my mouth and my payment to this quack pays the bills.
misdiagnosed
I went to aspen dental and was told that I had pre-peridental disease and if I didn't take care of it I would loose my teeth. I then applied for a credit card through them to have the 1, 505 procedure done, I am not ready to loose my teeth. As I drove home I was discusted that this was so exspensive. I talked with a few people about the cost and they suggested I go for a second opinion which I did. My teeth are fine with no gum issues the costs was 75.00 and next appointment is May 2010. This is absoulutly disusting in the health field that they are stealin from the poor. Beware and always get a second opinion on everything their are no more honest people out their.

gave false price quote and would not honor it
My husband went to Aspen Dental to get his dentures because when I called and got a price, I was told a set of dentures was $199.00 to $1, 300.00. The $1, 300.00 sounded reasonable because when I priced them last year at Denture Center their price was $1, 500.00. My husband had gotten his last set there. So if your best set was $1, 300.00 then I thought we would try your company. With our insurance our co-pay should have been less than $500.00.
Then my husband comes home and says the teeth cost $2, 763.00. He told them that was too much so they added coupons to get it down. But our share was $916.00. This is $400 or $500 more than it should have been.
When I called to complain I talked to someone that said they would listen to the phone call because they would want to honor what they had told a customer. I don't have who I talked to because I have a new email provider and lost all my emails. I received an email from her that the customer service supervisor had listened to the call and that I was told the price was for each plate, not the set. But I was told it was for a set of dentures. I asked if I could hear the call and she said she did not know if technology would allow that and I never heard back.
I have called back a couple of other times and requested a price for a set of dentures and was told $199.00 to $1, 400.00. One of the times was on July 13, between 2:00 and 3:00. If you call the toll free number [protected] and ask for a price for a set of dentures, you will also be told what I was.
I don't know if my phone call was was really listened to because they said the operator said the price was for each plate. But nothing was said about the price being for each plate, because I never would have scheduled an appointment. I would like someone to listen to the call and also hear if it possible.
I would like to have the $400 or so that I was overcharged put back on my flex spending account. This was money I had alloted for my own dental work and medical expenses for the rest of the year.
I fell like this is a scam to get people into your office. Why would people come there when you chage double what someone else does. If I can't get my refund, the $400.00 you have taken from me is buying you a lot more than that in bad publicity. Everyone I know will hear my horror story of dealing with your company. That's if they already haven't.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I just started going to Aspen and was wondering if the place was a scam or not by the way they act. To have a credit guy right there to help you pay for their services, seems a little creepy and shady. But I saved my money to get the work done that I needed done. However, the price of getting that work done from 2 years ago has tripled, that shocked me. And the way the dentist comes in and grabs your tooth and wiggles it, tells you that is loose...well, yeah it's loose, you just yanked on it...it has to come out she says. Does the same thing with another one, that made me want to walk...no, run out. But I couldn't because I have a broken partial that needs to be re-made and they are the only ones around that my insurance pays for. I know one thing, they make a lot of appointments so they can charge the insurance more money. I'm still not sure about them, but I have to go there because of the insurance I have. Talk about a rock in a hard place.

I had my lower teeth out in early July in Mattydale, NY 2008 By Aspen Dental by a Dr. Porter. He told me he was quiting Aspen Dental and moving to Aspen Col. the next day after my surgery. I never had any x-ray's done after the procedure and I have had 4 surgeries since then, because of terrible dental procedure to start with! Aspen Dental hired him and I've had nothing but pain and discomfort sine then. They opened a new office in Dewitt, NY which I've been going to. Dr. Skinner has been trying to clean up all my problem's that this Dr. Porter created to begin with! I have alot of serious Medical Condition's and this constant surgery is really causing me pain, discomfort, and I can't take asprin or anything for pain afterward's because od server Liver condition. I've been nice about this but I'm going to find a Laywer to help with this problem! I paid in full over 5, 000.00 14 month's ago and I'm still being worked on for the original problem of just having my botton teeth out! Dr. Skinner and his staff have been wonderful working with me but 14 month's of all this agrivation and with my health condition's your company has put me through hell! I.m tired of having stitches in my mouth, pain, and just making my life miserable! I expect something to ne done about this, and you people hired this Dr. Porter and he should be reported to higher up's cause his skill's are very bad plus he has the personality of dirt! I will be contacting a laywer about thiswhole problem and go from there! I expect to hear from you! [protected]@yahoo.com

over charging and cheap dental work
My husband lost one of his front four teeth. We had heard about Aspen Dental being new to town and that they were taking new patients. My husband went there and and had his new patient xrays taken and a dental plan set up for fixing his missing tooth. They told him they wanted to do a two part cleaning, bridge work for the missing tooth, fill cavities, pull some teeth. etc. we could not afford all of that and were just concerned with getting the tooth replaced. We spoke to the office manager who told us about care credit. We applied and one of us was approved for a small line of credit. we decided to go ahead with the cleaning and bridgework. We had insurance and were told that the work would be submitted to the insurance, and that whatever the insurance did not cover would be billed to care credit. before we even had the first cleaning appt, we received a bill from care credit for almost the entire amount of our line of credit. The office manager blew us off and said we should make the first pymt while insurance was processing. My husband hsd his two cleaning sessions, and then went back for bridge work. When we arrived for the bridgework, another dentist, whom we had never met before, told us that my husbands teeth could not hold a bridge because they were too loose. He said that he had just looked at the xrays, and if he had seen them earlier, he would not have gone with the bridge procedure. We found out that the insurance had not ever been been billed for the bridgework, but our care credit account HAD! They offered a different prodecure instead, and told us to see the office manager about a credit. The office manager kept insisting that we wait till the insurance paid something. They went ahead and did the new partial mouth piece and said they billed the insurance for it. After waiting two months with no call back and many messages left for the office manager, I called and found out that not only had the insurance claim not been billed correctly for the mouth piece causing the insurance to deny the claim, but the office mamager had mysteriously just not showed up for work one day and all of her files were all over. I demanded that our file be looked at and a credit be issued. I finally had to call the corporate office after I was told that a credit request had been sent with a rush on it to be processed quickly. It had not been rushed...so I rushed it! You see, we had been charged late fees, over the limit fees, and finace charges on a balance that should not have existed on my care credit account. They said they would talk to care credit and get those waived and they did not. When I called the dental office to get a printout of the originally billed charges, the office personnel would not even speak with me..they sent a dental aide to hand me the paper...which did not show the charge billed for the bridgework. That all being said, the partial plate they made my husband broke not even 60 days after he got it, and the pieces were lost. Since we could not provide the pieces, they said they had to make a whole new one and we would have to pay out of pocket for the whole thing. So...the battle rages on..but my attorney will handle it from here! DO NOT TRUST ASPEN DENTAL EVER! THEY ARE FRAUDULENT AND SHOULD BE PROSECUTED!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
The people of Aspen Dental were more interested in signing me up for a teeth cleaning that they complete missed the fact that I needed a Biopsy. In my eyes this would have turned in to a bigger problem then having clean teeth.
It's corporate dentistry, they overload their schedules and burn out their employee's. They demand more work at faster turn-around times. That's why they have a high turn-over too. Quantity over quality . Doctors have too many patients at once, lab technicians are overwelmed with work, central lab can't handle the workload so they dumped it on the field lab techs. It's rushed dentistry...beware
PAID $2500. NEVER GOT MY FINAL DENTURES, LEFT WITH A TOOTH MISSING IN MY FRONT TEETH. THESE PEOPLE ARE "RIPOFF'S" THEY ORIGINALLY QUOTED ME A PRICE OF $2900. THEN TRIED TO CHARGE ME ALLMOST $4500. CONSUMERS BEWARE!
I went there to get my two front teeth straight and got Care Credit, twice and they have charged me over $6000 for two extractions, one cap and cleaning and dentures for the top and bottom, they do not show you prices up front, and are way overpriced, HELP
I have had my plate since July of 2014 and they still do NOT fit. I am tired of spending my money on gas and not getting anything done right. They keep telling me to try one more time. I want my money back so I can go somewhere and get a plate that I can eat a meal without them coming loose. I use more adhesive then I think I need to but they won't stay in any other way. My teeth hurt when I try to eat.
They keep telling me to see the doctor. He does not do anything different. He made a new one and used the one I had (that does not fit) to make a new set and they don't fit either.
please don't go to aspen dental in Hamilton oh, all they do is hurt you, and they keep wanting you to keep going there for no reason at all, there is 2x now I went there for a soft align and both times I went home without it being done, it keeps costing me time and gas, and they are one of the most expensive places you can go too
I completely agree. It's a terrible place to go and I will NEVER go there again. I had a denture reline and didn't find out until afterward that they don't do the adjustments without a charge because it wasn't their denture. I had it made in Michigan before I moved here. It should have been told to me up front and I would have gone somewhere else! It was a horrible ordeal which is far too long to type here. HORRIBLE place! Stay away from Aspen Dental. What a rip-off!
On 5-11 I went to Aspen Dental on Broadview Rd., Parma OH. to have an abscessed tooth removed only. Once they received our ins. info. and husbands salary all they saw were dollar signs. My husband and I were suckered into myself having a full set of dentures by Mehboob Abdullah d.d.s put into my mouth, which I would not have needed for at least another 10 years or so, there is no reputable, professional dentist that would do this to a person. Denists try to save teeth, not pull them all out. I had 27 teeth pulled out at once without the option of having to go elsewhere to be put to sleep, it was a horrible painful experience. On 12-11 impressions were taken for permanent teeth and I was asked about dental implants and was continually pressured about this all to get more money out of my husband and myself. I had enough on 3-6-12 and have never gone back and never will go back to them or any other dental clinic. They will empty your wallet if you let them. Since then, I've warned family, friends, co-workers not to go to Aspen Dental and to spread the word.
Rushed dentistry is being too kind. When I worked there there was a doctor always running behind. Patients having to wait 90 min or more to get in. Some walked out. The doc said I'm not going to play beat the clock which is what upper management told the doc to do.
This is a sorry company. Most of the dentists are right out of school or have gone out of business on their own and are trying to make it again.
So true, so true. And if you try to say something, they will make your life impossible there and force you to quit.
partials
I am SO upset. I finally got my permenant teeth through Aspen Dental and I have been in so much pain since the dentist tried to shove them in and the color isn't even the same as my regular teeth. I was sold the "best" partials they had and billed $1800 A PIECE for lower and upper partial and they look cheap and like I have a piece of plastic in my mouth. When I complained, I was told I got the best tooth they had and that the color was the same. NOT! I spent so much money at this place and I am so not happy with the work they did! Now I owe over $3000 and that doesn't even count what the insurance company paid them! I paid hundreds of dollars for a deep scaled cleaning and my teeth doesn't look any better then before they did it. I would never refer anyone I know to this place. They change dentists every couple of months. That should have been my first clue!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Yes, they change dentists every few months because they fire the dentists that care about people. If they do not produce enough money... they do not want them working there. I know this because my husband was one of them. Aspen Dental does not care about their employees or their patients. Bottom line... it is a business not a patient service company. They hire "office managers" with no dental experience to "sell" dentistry. Again, they will be fired if they do not get the patients to accept their treatment plans or they cannot get them financed. I have been a hygienist for 23 years and I have now made it my life's mission to STOP ASPEN DENTAL! Pass the word along
uneeded terrible dental work
I went into Aspen Dental last year for a basic cleaning, and to discuss my options about correcting one slightly crocked tooth on my left front tooth. I had braces twice but it still was a slight crocked. He told me other than braces (which I had twice) my only other option for my teeth would be CROWNS.
I am only 24 at the time, thinking this was my only option for this type of cosmetic fix, I decided to go with this option (after researching this online).
The day of my appointment about 3 hours in (should have only taken 2 hours) he realized he didn't have the material he needed for my temp crowns (after he prepped my teeth) so he had to make do with some other type of material. After several hours of pain (this is after the location closed, it took that long) I looked in the mirror and started crying. I had never seen anything like it. The dentist honestly wanted me to go out the door and look like this for two weeks. The color of my two front teeth was pure BROWN! And looked liked the size of huge chicklets. I demanded he fix this ASAP (he didn't see anything wrong with them) so he told me he would call me tomorrow if he could find the right type of material. The next day when I came in the office all knew what had happened to me, and he began to "fix" the problem. When I looked in the mirror this time I was even more horrified, I understood this were temporary but they looked nothing like my teeth. I asked if my permanent would look like my teeth (assuming because this was for cosmetic reasons that they would) and the dentist just shook his head and said my teeth had been bleached before and were so white that no crowns would match that exactly color so I would always have darker front teeth. I just bolted out of there crying. If you know me, I NEVER cry... so I called around to all the dentists in the area and pleaded what had happened to me.
One dentist got me in that day and attemped to fix what ASPEN DENTAL had done to me. He said I would have been a candidate for many other things than braces and crowns. I was much to young to have crowns and now I have to live with that. Dr. Heinrichs did an amazing job and my permanents now look like my real teeth. He even uses my story when he has meetings with the board. Needless to say everytime I see an Aspen Dental I cringe, it terrifies me that people actually still go there and they haven't closed it down yet. I have pictures on my old camera if anyone wants to see, I am truly embarrased to show anyone other than my family.

don't do it
In January 2009, I scheduled an appointment because I needed three extractions and was hesitant about getting general anesthesia, so I called Aspen Dental and was told they will pull them under local. Great.
After calling me in to do an x-ray and check out my teeth, the dentist sat there telling me just how bad my entire bottom row of teeth are, which I already knew they were pretty bad but I did not need to hear his thoughts. He suggested the best thing would be to rip them all out and start again. Mind you, I was only nineteen at the time and completely freaked out, during which he told me he will start with the bottom and then with the top. After calming down from that statement, they brought me into a room to speak to me about dentures and pricing. The lady was pushing anyway possible to get me to agree with her that this is what I needed. After not listening and seeing the price, I kindly got up and walked out while telling them all 'nope'.
A week later I got my three teeth extracted, under general anesthesia!, and my bottom teeth, ALL still my own teeth, worked on. My primary dentist did not see a reason why I needed to lose all my teeth. I happily agreed with him.
A few months later, my sister went in to get one tooth extracted and three filled. They did what she had asked, but charged her for a surgical extraction when it was only a simple and for a cleaning. The tooth came out in full, root and all, and she has not received a cleaning.
Do not go to Aspen Dental. All they want is your money and don't care what they do to get it.

new partial
I am a very dissastified customer. I have spent over $8, 429 which the insurance company only paid $2, 500 and out of my pocket $5, 929 within the last 18 months. I agreed to 7 crowns on my bottom teeth which I was very satisfied with. I returned in Feb 09 to fix 2 upper teeth in which they said I needed a root canal with 2 crowns and I agreed to that. I...

When I visited Aspen Dental for the first time, I ensured that my digital X-rays are transmitted from a previous dentist as I didn't want to go through another full mouth X-rays within a short period of time. The office manager in charge was handling it. Even though she was fully aware that she had my X-rays, yet my insurance company and I were billed for a full mouth X-rays of $115.00 I immediately alerted my insurance not to pay this amount as there were no X-rays taken by Aspen Dental.
It appears to me that this scamming is practiced on a regular basis to unsuspecting customers and insurance companies.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I think you are offbase to judge so harshly. People do make mistakes and could easily have charged the insurance company by mistake. I am sure if you had made a simple phone call to point out that you didn't have x-rays taken there, the matter would have been cleared up. Offices don't take "insurance fraud" lightly.
All in all, though, I would say you should choose another dental office because if you don't trust the office and your dentist, you should not have dental work done there. You and the Aspen Dental office will both be better off.
con artist
This company will make promises to make you smile, But they will do nothing but overcharge you and do shabby work by unprofessionals, under qualified people. Good luck trying to get your money back for work not completed. They finance you thru GE money bank and never offer refunds. This company ripped me off for over $5, 000 and has ruined my credit because I refuse to pay the balance. They never did the work and what they tried to do was so sudstandard and poor quality I Did not accept it. Talking to the Home office also gets you now were. I went to a real dental office and when they saw the fit and poor qualiy they were in dis belief a professional could have messed up as bad as ASPEN DENTAL did. I have pictures if anyone want to see shabby work. Not even good enough for a dog. RIP OFFs is all I can say

Read full review of Aspen Dental and 2 commentsrude employee
That Amy is a rude, rude person. I made an emergeny appointment, When they called me out back I told them that my employer hadent sent me a card for my dental ins. So she called, but unfortunately they had closed by that time, And she was scoffing and sighing the whole time looking through her book, really making me feel like a pos. SO I rescheduled, When I got home that night, I decided to give my insurance a call and low and behold I got an operator! And all the necessary info.
So I call the next morning get my info and she was still being rude, had me on hold for minutes. Finally another girl picked up, I was so thankful.
So I showed up the next afternoon, and I had forgotten my debit card, I didn't realize it would be a problem to jst give them my numbers which I have memorized, I told them tht my gf could bring the card by around fiveish and that the card was in my name. Most of the girls in the office didn't see it as a problem, but this ### did. Then she tried gettin a little lippy with me say that they had squeezed me in and I had showed up five minutes late. I asked her what she was getting at, and she said they had an emergency patient after me... blah blah blah. This was uncalled for. I'm not sure why she is allowed to get away with this.
All I wanted to do was pay to get these teeth taken out, and this girl seems to have a personal vedetta against me. I got news for this slutty ###, she isn't a dentist! She isn't important. She seems to think she runs the show down there. It really isn't about the customers anymore, it doesn't matter that I was suffering. I may not have a lot of money, and regret wearing sweats there, cause obiously this [censored] thought I was going to rip them off.

Read full review of Aspen Dental and 1 commentaspen dental =worst place ever
My mother just recently went to Aspen Dental for some tooth advice. Her teeth were hurting her so she decided to have them checked out. At Aspen, they told her the enamel from her teeth was almost completely gone and there was no fixing it, so they pulled out the majority of her teeth. During that procedure, they did not use enough Novocaine and she could feel every little cut and pull they were making. She told the "dentist" about how she could feel everything he was doing and he told her all she felt was pressure and that everyone says that to him. She was in total pain the entire time. She also bled for a looooong time. Also, immediately following the surgery, they placed her dentures in. They were SOOOO HUGE in comparison to her tiny mouth that she couldn't even talk... she had to slur her words and the saliva couldn't even stay in her mouth. She kept them in for one night and couldn't stand it anymore so she took them out in the morning. Her face was swollen quite a bit and she complained of pain for a few days. She went back for an appointment to have them fix the problem, and they made the dentures even larger! So she complained again and the "dentist" "TRIED" to fix them, which he failed because she put them in her mouth and said "they're still too big" and he got extremely cocky and said "well you can't know in 3 seconds." They would barely even fit in her mouth. They also keep charging her a nice handful of money every time she has to go back, but the only reason she's going back is to complain about their crappy service. I highly do NOT recommend this place to anyone. My mother is going through enough drama and it's ruining her life and her budget.

To the original poster:
What do you think will happen if you have a bunch of teeth pulled? It will probably be pretty sore for a few days. Of course new dentures (these are called immediate dentures since they go in immediately after your teeth are pulled) will feel like a mouthful, they are teeth wrapped with acrylic to hold them together, bigger than natural teeth. If you want them to feel completely natural, then quit complaining & put out the money for implants & bridgework to the tune of $35-55k. Otherwise take your economy dentures & make do. Your mom should have brushed her teeth to begin with to avoid this problem.
I've been to an Aspen dental recently in Pennsylvania ( Scranton, Dickson city)..All I can say is I've had nothing but the best from them. Of any office I have been to in the last 20 yrs, I need to say that everyone from the receptionists, to the 2 office managers and the dentist himself ( Dr R.) ... They have all, on every one of my visits to their office been pleasant, understanding, willing and wholeheartedly makes sure my experience is an excellent one.
I'm a people watcher too and everyone I have ever seen walk out of that office has a smile on their face. Leads me to believe they are happy with their service.
This office informs me every step of the way of my process, always asking if I have any questions then answering them.

trying to do work that didnt need done
I took both of my sons into Aspen Dental both to get check ups. One boy the told that he had cavities and would have to be taken care of. The other boy they said he needed a cleaning and it would cost four times the usual amount.
This in itself seemed really fishy to me. I stopped going there and took them to another dentist. The boy with the cavities was told he didnt have any at all. The boy with the cleaning was done at a regular rate of standard cleaning. Please if you read this don't go to aspen dental.

I had dental work done at Aspen 8/3 and was treated exceptionally well by all. I was not urged to have procedures that did not have to be done. The charges were reasonable for what I paid after insurance. I am so happy I decided to use Aspen Dental. I have paid more in a dental office and got much less. Also the office staff is terrific; the dentist very nice, and very qualified.

Allie,
That simply is not true. Aspen and Credit Care are ripoff artists on in the 1st degree... They charged me over $2000 for services I never received. I tried the "call the team" approach and "call credit care"... The PA State department of health is my next call...
It's a pure scam.
