What's motivated me to make my first post on social media? Just recently, I invested in cosmetic dentistry at Legends Dental, and I wanted to let others know how truly wonderful it feels, at my age, to once again have a beautiful, youthful smile. My new crowns, which were made from a revolutionary new dental material that catches and reflects the light, are indistinguishable from real teeth. Their color was chosen to complement my skin tone, and their shape was chosen to complement my facial structure. In addition to giving me a beautiful new smile, Dr. Brittingham corrected my bite to ensure maximum comfort and to prevent me from having dental problems in the future. I am THRILLED with my new smile, and I want to publicly thank Dr. Brittingham, and the rest of the wonderfully friendly, expert, and professional Legends Dental team, (care coordinators/dentalJenny and Shanelle and front office staff Carla and Ashley) for giving me such a prettier, healthier smile and for making my experience of rehabilitative dentistry such a truly rewarding investment. Thank you! -Paula

After a five minute wait my name was called and I was on my way back to my yearly checkup. Ashlie was my dental assistant and I was able to get a few questions in when her hand wasn't busy inside my mouth. Ashlei does hair as well and has a passion for good dental hygiene because she wore braces twice, and I had them once as well. Dr. Christine wasted no time getting in the chair after my X-rays were finished and deep cleaned in between my teeth. We were able to chat about the origin of my new last name and the current events that have recently turned all of our lives upside down. I'm sure my previous review was fueled from emotion and things going unexpectedly, but this visit has been the best one yet! I really appreciate the staff minimizing customer contact and being attentive to my needs by making notes for next time so it's even more comfortable. This has been and will be the only place I come for all my dental needs. Thank you Gentle Denistry team for always taking care of me, even at times I did not deserve it.

In the lobby I could here reception making a follow up phone call to a patient and the patient was on speaker. Everyone in the reception area could here the entire conversation!!!! X-ray technician took forever. Had to Redo several steps. As I sat and waited and waited I could overhear another employee do intake with another patient and it seemed she had to ask the patient the same questions over and over. She did not use medical/dental terms ( when did your wisdom teeth bust through!) and then began talking about her belief in going to church !!!! OMG good thing she wasn't talking to me! She carried on more inappropriate conversation with another employee.... Who the heck is monitoring the employees? Oh wait ...no one. Probably won't be back here! Only came due to an emergency.

Had an appointment today to get my permanent dentures. The appointment has been scheduled for a month. I arrive, check in. The receptionist said that I had a balance on my account, which I do. $400 remaining of the thousands that I and my insurance have paid. I told her I would be taking care of it next week when I receive my Social Security payment for this month. I waited for my appoinment and after waiting for 20 minutes, the receptionist tells me that "in order to move forward, we wll have to have the balance paid". Out loud, in front of other patients in the waiting room. I was humiliated. Since the appointment has been booked for a month, surely someone could have contacted me to tell me this. I left, still no permanent dentures, its been 7 months since my lower teeth were extracted. That procedure was a horror show also. DON'T GO TO ASPEN!

They are friendly and do good work, but they should be more forthright about their pricing, particularly with those without the luxury of dental insurance. I paid over $650 out-of-pocket on my first two visits alone and have a gap in my teeth that is sure to cost me thousands. I think I can live with the gap!

Gave him an "aqualizer", and charged us $40 for it, with in 10 days it broke, so I called to replace it and the secretary told me that she would not replace it or sell him another one until my account was paid in full.
