    I always hated going to the dentist but, thanks to aspen dental it's now like going to see old…read morefriends. As a child my mom would take us kids to a dentist who must have had a secret love for causing pain. He would drill my cavities without the use of Novocaine. He probably didn't have a pain fetish but, he was definitely too cheap and in too much of a hurry to bother with numbing teeth before drilling them. Needless to say, going to the dentist must have been a hidden fear of mine considering that I have been to the dentist 5 times in 25 years. Thanks to Aspen Dental I have now visited the dentist 12 times in 2 1/2 years. The free exam and x-rays were a nice surprise but, not compared to the pleasant and cheerful staff. Everybody treated me with respect and made me feel comfortable. The dentist who did the exam made sure that it was painless and explained, in detail, in a way I was able to understand exactly what my teeth needed. The staff up front did a great job finding a finance option that suited me. Not once did I feel embarrassed about my condition, all of my questions were answered and explained thoroughly and their knowledge of dentistry was impressive. My teeth are now in good condition and I look forward to my appointments thanks to the great staff at Aspen Dental.

    I made an appt for myself and my son back in March 2026 for May 2026.. when I initially made the…read moreappt. I gave our insurance info. I was never told that they don't accept our insurance. Now days before the appt. I'm being told they do not accept our insurance... within these 2mos of waiting for the appt, I could have scheduled with another dentist that does accept our insurance. Thanks Aspen Dental. Now I'm most likely going to have to wait who knows how long for a for appt with a different provider.

    The friendly demeanor of the dentist and staff does not make up for the serious and unacceptable…read moreproblems I experienced at this office. I was overcharged, and my insurance was submitted claims for procedures that were never performed, which raises serious ethical and billing concerns. After a crown was placed in March 2025, my regular dentist later found excess cement left directly on my gum line--a basic and preventable error. My dentist was extremely disturbed by this and stated it could have caused damage to my gums. Leaving cement behind reflects a clear lack of attention to standard dental care and patient safety. To make matters worse, the crown fell off while I was eating (and unfortunately swallowed) yet I was told I would need to pay out of pocket for a completely new crown, despite the original being placed only months earlier. Refusing to stand behind recent work while shifting the financial burden onto the patient is unprofessional and unacceptable. Between the billing irregularities, substandard workmanship, and lack of accountability, I strongly advise others to avoid this office altogether. If you do choose to go here, verify every charge, closely monitor what is submitted to your insurance, and be prepared to seek corrective care elsewhere.

    I recently switched to Dr Kupetz' office and so far I am very happy with the level of care and…read moreservice. The employees are clearly caring and competent. It seems to be a generally small practice so a typical patient is more valued. There may be some downsides to a smaller practice such as appointment flexibility, but I prefer the more personal and professional approach I have seen, versus what I have experienced elsewhere.
