This past weekend I bit down on a hard piece of bacon and, based on the sound it made and the pain…read moreI felt, I was convinced I cracked one of my teeth. I hadn't been to my normal dentist since before COVID, so when I called, they said they could assess things in a couple days, but would need to find a new patient slot for me if anything needed to be done. I then looked online and saw there was a same day opening at the Aspen Dental in Ellsworth, so I booked it. And I'm so glad I did... I waited no more than 10 minutes once I arrived and had the full new patient intake: x-rays, gum health, 3D scan, and dentist assessment. Thankfully nothing was cracked but I did have a chipped molar that needed filling. Megan the hygienist was great, and Dr. Ghanem explained everything thoroughly. At checkout, Amber saw they had a cleaning opening in a few minutes, so she offered it to me on the spot since I was already there. She also was able to get me in for a filling only two days later. Given how hard it is to get any kind of appointment these days, I was extremely thankful. Overall it is a nice clean office, with really nice staff and convenient scheduling. I couldn't ask for more in a dentist's office - highly recommended!

Went in to replace a filling that had fallen out. I was concerned about the strength of the tooth…read moreand the possibility of it breaking in the future. So I asked if there was anything that could be done to build up and strengthen the tooth. The dentist took this opportunity to talk me into what turned out to be an unnecessary, and poorly fitted veneer that keeps falling off. I've lost count of how many times I had to go back to have it put back on. Sometimes it only stayed put for a couple days. It'd break off from biting into things as soft as a slice of pizza. They couldn't even be bothered to make sure my tooth and the veneer were clean and dry before putting it back on. Just slap some glue on there and stick it to my tooth. The glue they used wasn't even adhering to the veneer properly. I could chip it off the veneer with my fingernail. It was both the most I've been charged for dental work, and the poorest quality work I've received. Finally found another dentist to reattach it, and noticed that the reattachment was a much longer process when it's being done by someone who actually cares to do a good job. Moral of the story: Aspen dental cannot be trusted. They just want your money and do not care about the quality of their work.

r. Horowitz took X-rays and thoroughly examined my teeth when I came in experiencing extreme pain…read more He quickly recognized that I needed to be evaluated by an endodontist and made sure the proper steps were taken. After further evaluation, it was determined that the issue was nerve-related rather than dental, and that a root canal or surgery would not help. Instead, I was advised to see a neurologist. Thanks to this recommendation, I was promptly diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia, and because it was caught early, I now have a strong treatment plan in place. I am very grateful to Dr. Horowitz and his staff for their care, professionalism, and commitment to making sure I received the help I truly needed.
