Aspen Hills Smiles is a wonderful dental office with a great friendly staff, and Dr Wayne is a skilled, patient and caring dentist. I am so glad I found them, and I think it's the first time I've ever enjoyed going to the dentist. Great Care. read more

I've been going to this practice since before Dr. Wyne bought out Dr. Kass. Dr. Wyne is great! He is very good at explaining issues and working with me to plan my treatment. His treatment has always been excellent. The staff is very efficient and very friendly. I was tempted to downgrade this to four stars due to some errors with my billing in the past, but it's been a long time without any errors so I think they've ironed out their issues. Their insurance acceptance is less complete than I would have liked, make sure you check your coverage explicitly beforehand. In my personal experience, Dr. Wyne is far preferable to the other dentist, in his office, that I've seen, Dr. Larkin. My advice is to stick with Dr. Wyne even if they try to shuffle you off to one of the other dentists. read more

I had an appointment for a simple cleaning. When it was my turn for the appointment, the hygienist took one look at me and said, 'oh never mind' and left! What?! I'm a new patient. I've never met her. Then I waited 45 more minutes in the waiting room and saw a dentist. I've never met the main dentist. She wouldn't listen to me. She had her own opinion. The office is set up like horse stalls and is noisy. I have sensory issues and that place was too much for me. I ended up with a 3-hour appointment-just for a cleaning. I also found the dentist to be rude to other employees. I just felt like a number, the whole appointment was stressful for me. I felt like I was in an auto body shop. I am going to go somewhere else. read more

ASPEN HILL SMILES FAMILY DENTISTRY- This review is lengthy but worth reading! I came to get an initial procedure done due to a broken tooth. Hence I was in extreme pain. Dr. Gildenhorn was amazing he explained everything to me. Beyond the procedure I have to say his personality is amazing. He's funny and direct and really cares You can tell he is super busy but I would expect that from a great dentist. Thanks to him I felt comfortable and appreciated. His assistant Maria was a doll. She completely made me feel great and she was very personable. Her smile made me feel great to have her around. She's beautiful inside and out. The procedure unfortunately did not help but it was perfectly done. I have no complaints or regrets. It's just one of those moments where luck wasn't on my side. Since I was indeed in dire pain I came back to him for a check up. The X-ray showed nothing but we decided on a root canal because of the excruciating pain. He apologized over and over and said he didn't like to see me in pain so he asked to give me an appt to Dr. Tran the specialist for a root canal ASAP. I only had to wait a day for her to be in office. Oh man I cannot express enough gratitude to her and her assistant Jessica. I myself am not your average person. I like to show love and appreciation to people. My own way of making the world a better place one person at a time. And they were very accommodating to me. They even played my favorite music while I had my procedure to calm me down and give me a more comfortable experience. I'd also like to take a moment to thank the front desk staff members I met. To Miss Bethany and Mr Patrick, thank you so much for you generosity and kindness. I hope you both continue to smile and have happy days. Mr. Patrick thank you so much for taking your time in helping me in my situation in the first visit. You took your time and never showed me anything other than respect and courtesy. There is nothing bad I can say to Aspen Hill Smiles. The staff and Dr.'s are some of the best I've seen. Thank you so much for everything. I will see you soon for my next appt. ~ Betty Boop PS - This dental office will help you if you don't have insurance. They have a dental savings plan that you may apply for in office. ( It's pricy but worth it compared to the saving you will save.) Also they have payment plans. They will also go over all your costs before hand and I'm my experience there were no hidden or extra costs given. read more

Robin Larkin, DDS - General Dentistry Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Wonderful! In time with no wait. Staff friendly and competent! Very caring. I'm 66 and this is the best dental practice I've been to by far! read more

I'm very disappointed and disturbed that Dr Trant didn't care to get me back right away because her attempt to re-cement my detached three-teeth bridge failed in less than 48 hours. She promised me that the front desk would hand me the insurance estimates for making a new bridge which they didn't do. I communicated with a couple of emails to bring back to resolve the failed cementing attempt but I received no acknowledgement. I certainly hope this dental practice didn't charge my insurance for incomplete and unfinished work/treatment. I share this bad experience so it won't happen to you. It is best not to give your business to them, especially don't trust dr Trant with treatment of your urgent teeth pains. read more

I had a dental emergency and they were ready to help me. I went into the office as a walk in and I was told I had a tooth infection. I decided to get an extraction between the two treatment plans offered to me. On the day of my appointment the dental assistant "Jelly" was super friendly and did everything she could to make me feel comfortable. She played my favorite music and explained everything to me in detail, she also gave me clear instructions on my post-op care and I'm very appreciative of that. Dr Wyne personally did the extraction and I wasn't in any discomfort throughout the process. He assured me I was doing great and before I knew it, it was over. Also if you don't have health insurance or you do but you don't have a dental plan Dr. Wayne's office also known as Aspen Hill Smiles offers a "dental savings plan" it's good for a year and covers your basic dental needs which I think is awesome. read more

This was my first time visiting Dr. Wyne and it will absolutely be my last. First, there are only about 20 parking spots out front and the overflow parking lot is across the street at a church. There is no crosswalk or signage that protects the patients from crossing the busy street. This should have been the first red flag. In regards to the actual dentistry, I went in for a filling but left feeling judged and humiliated. Dr. Wyne was very condescending while speaking to me about the procedure. I was relaxed and mentally prepared to receive the filling but his tone caused me to abruptly leave the office, without receiving the care that I was originally scheduled for. If you're looking for someone to ease your nerves before dental work, avoid Dr. Wyne at all costs. P.S. I would have given this place 1 star if it wasn't for the super friendly and accommodating receptionist. read more

Dr. Wyne was recommended by my husband since my dentist is all the way to DC. I had an emergency wisdom tooth extraction done by Dr. Wyne and it was done so fast and really good. I didn't even realize that the procedure was done because it didn't even take like 15 mins. The ambiance of their newly renovated office is so nice and neat. I love how they take care of the patients and explain everything before and after the procedure. Its also easy to book an appointment, you can call or do it online. They will also let you know before the appointment if you need to pay anything. read more

I've been a patient for several years now but really disappointed in the service yesterday. My previous experience has generally been good. 30-45 minutes sitting on the dental chair with the numbing gel losing its effect and no dentist to do take care of a filling - so I just got up and left. Did I get a call apologizing. No - just an email today asking me to give a review. Well here you go. read more

I've been going here for a few years... started while I was under my parents' insurance and then I purchased a plan with this place. All the hygienists are so nice, good at what they do, and candid with conversations. My most recent appointment was with Heather and she made sure I knew exactly what she doing and why. I can tell she is very knowledgeable about dentistry. I typically see Dr. Wyne after the hygienist is done, who is nice and cool. He's definitely easy to talk to if you have any questions. I met Dr. Baker recently and she is welcoming and also very easy to talk to. My appointments are always on time. The office is very clean and professional-looking after their renovations. My appointments are started and completed very timely. I would defiantly recommend this practice to anyone who lives in the Aspen Hill area. They're good at what they do! read more

I've been coming to see Dr. Wyne for probably 4 years now and I absolutely love this practice. The location is super convenient, and the office is really nice. The front office staff is super prompt, friendly, and helpful. I've come for cleanings, getting a mouth guard for my terrible TMJ and a filling. I could not say a negative thing about any of them. I just finished getting a filling there and it was fast and easy, not painful. I visited their newer dentist and she was awesome. I highly recommend you come here if you are looking for a dentist!! read more

DDS R Larkin should be avoided. Avoid this practice. When they make mistakes, which they made Several significant ones at my last visit, they do not take ownership of them. This demonstrates a lack of caring, training and responsibility. Apologizing would have been So Much Smarter and decent. People who cannot handle being told they've made a mistake should not be in an office setting. They are not ready for primetime. I bought a package of two cleanings for $299. This was an all inclusive pkg. NOW, about two weeks later, they sent me a statement alleging I owe over $500.00 more. THE POINT of buying a cleaning pkg of two was to pay upfront and only pay $299 for two visits. I have had one and there will never be a 2nd visit. Very shady business practices for a business providing HEALTH CARE. Go someplace else that values you!! read more

I came here after not having gone to the dentist for a long time; as a result, I was very apprehensive. Dr. Wyne was very laid back and set me at ease and Anne, my hygienist, was really friendly and capable. Anne explained what she was doing throughout my appointment. I felt little to no physical discomfort during my cleaning and scaling procedures (which were a bit longer than usual since I hadn't been in awhile) and the x-ray process was quick and easy. It was very easy to make an appointment over the phone, and the office followed up with me via phone and text to confirm my appointment as the date got closer. There is plenty of parking nearby. The waiting area is nicely and comfortably set up. They do new patient forms on an iPad, and they don't take long to complete. read more

After my wonderful dentist of around 30 years retired, it took me a while to find a dentist I TRUSTED. Too many were TOO anxious to sell me "things" I did not need. "Things" from unnecessary antibiotic powder stuffed into my gums for $90 (not covered by insurance), to unnecessary surgery to "trim my gums" for hundreds if not thousands of dollars plus agony of oral surgery, to removal by destruction and replacement of a permanent bridge for $5,000 (said casually by the prominent Olney dentist) that was "urgently needed" FIVE YEARS AGO [never done and with NO ill effects]. A friend recommended Dr. Kass in Aspen Hill. He was of the same mold as my retired dentist. SADLY, he had to retire abruptly. However, his practice was assumed by a young dentist working for him part-time at that time. And this is how I met Dr. Richard G. Wyne. That was a few years ago now. I am still with Dr. Wyne because he is EXCELLENT, AND he is HONEST. I told him about the "urgent" removal and replacement of a permanent bridge. He looked at my x-rays and said, "no problems now. We'll keep an eye on it!" In MY opinion, that is the way ANY medical practitioner SHOULD be. I understand that dental and medical practices are businesses. BUT, any competent practitioner should be successful without CHEATING their patients. Dr. Wyne is EXCELLENT. He knows what he is doing and he does it WELL. His staff, including his hygienists, is SUPERB. I am very comfortable recommending him to ANYONE looking for a dentist in the Aspen Hill, Leisure World or Olney area. Or, even further if you are willing to travel! read more

A friend recommended this practice when my dentist (since I was 5) quit taking my insurance. My husband & I have been going to Dr. Wyne since he joint the practice and it's been a wonderful experience. I've had issues addressed that I didn't realize I had and the procedures are always pain & fear free. He also recommended Invisiline which had incredibly positive results. I highly recommend this dental office! read more

I had the most traumatic experience of my life with Dr. Wyne. I went to him to have a tooth extracted. Not only did he fail to completely extract the tooth, but he also destroyed the bone around it. He did not use proper anesthesia and caused me excruciating pain during the extraction attempt. He is not a qualified oral surgeon but acts as if he were. He made a wrong diagnosis, stating that I couldn't receive an implant in place of the extracted tooth. Three dentists and one oral surgeon I consulted, based on previous images, told me that an implant was always possible. However, since he destroyed the area, I needed a real oral surgeon who had to perform a bone graft in the damaged area. Only after this lengthy treatment, which is still ongoing as I have pins in my mouth that need to be removed, will I be able to have the implant. If I can give you advice: steer clear of Dr. Wyne's chair. Not only does he make mistakes, but he also refused to pay for the restorative surgery for the bone in my mouth. read more

Awesome. no other words needed. I had not been to a dentist in years. he was polite, sensitive to my strange needs and i was in and out in an appropriate amount of time. Scheduled online, printed out and emailed paperwork already filled out so I was ready to go before I arrived. that helped speed up process. Everyone was polite, courteous, and professional. read more

Started going here after looking for recommendations from neighbors and haven't regretted it. Dr. Wyne has added a couple of dentists since then; I've only met one of them since (Dr. Tran) and was happy with her also. The hygienists here are friendly and extremely competent, and billing & payment have been pretty much glitch-free. Dr. Wyne offers a pre-payment plan that covers the cost of regular visits and also includes discounts on other services like fillings, root canals, and crowns (and braces!) that our family uses since he doesn't accept our dental plan (our plan is so bad that it saves us almost no money on routine dental care while limiting our choices, which is why we opted to pay out of pocket instead of being limited to in-network). My only real complaints, if you can call them that, are the often-limited parking for the facility - there are some reserved spots shared with other tenants of the building, and while I can usually find one of those open, that hasn't always been the case - and the first time we paid for the family pre-payment plan, it was miscalculated and we owed a considerable amount in the end which drastically reduced the savings over what we'd originally been told we'd save, although after a crown, we did in the end save a considerable amount. read more

The front desk was extremely nice and helpful. Dr. Tran was literally the best dentist I have ever had. I had two teeth extracted and it was painless and fast. So much so that I didn't even realize it was over. She will be my forever dentist from now on! read more

Last year I went to a dentist that was very aggressive and I felt gave me treatments that I didn't find necessary. So I found this dentist and am pleased to report I am extremely happy with my customer service lack of waut time and availability of appointment I'll definitely be staying with this dentist. read more

Dr. Richard is truly the best ! He's gentle and super nice and makes your visit fun every time, the office is always well kept and all his staff are super nice and professional. I highly recommend you come to him you won't see another dentist after that ! read more

I had a great experience with Dr. Wyne and his staff. I have had cleanings at other dentists where the procedure felt rushed and painful. With Dr. Wyne's office the staff is super nice and explained things that I can do to better care for my teeth. He is also really great with my daughters, who are special needs,where usually sitting at the dentist is a struggle, but the staff was very patient and helpful. read more

My dad needed a dentist so I chose Dr. Wyne from the great Yelp reviews he had. He is such a great dentist and his office staff are very friendly. My dad was seen exactly at the time of his appointment with no delay. read more

After a root canal, I was terrified to go back to any type of dentist. Dr. Wyne is so thoughtful, gentle, and explains everything he is doing. He played music during my procedure which put me at ease and always talks to me about my interests. He's a great dentist who takes the pain and fear out of dentistry away. I'm in college but I can tell that he'd be great to take kids to, as well! read more

Dr. Wyne is great. He cares about customer service and explains what is going on before during and after the procedure which I appreciate.

NOT HAPPY AT ALL. he did a filling for my daughter and her gums got infected. My daughter called him and he prescribed antibiotics. Four days has passed and he has not even bothered to call back to ask how she was doing. My daughter is headed to the emergency because her gums around the molar that was filled are still infected and are getting worst. Up to today he has not even picked to the phone to call her. read more

Greeted as I walked through the door by the office staff. Waited no more than 5 minutes for my appointment and I was early. Dr. Wyne had my tooth repaired and I was out of the office within 30 minutes. Great job by all. read more

Not sure what Frang G. is used to but I LOVE THE hygienist. I feel she works on and cares for my teeth with firm and careful attention. She's been the one I want to work with me, every time I visit their office and I've been going there for ~35 years, to Dr Kass and now Dr Wyne. Now my daughters are using Dr Wyne too. Highly recommend Michele (the hygienist) and Dr Wyne. read more

Dr. Wyne and his staff are great, he really takes the time to make sure you understand the procedures and explains everything to you in plain English. His staff is very attentive and courteous. I definitely recommend him. read more

Dr. Wyne is an excellent dentist, providing competent, professional service, including routine and non-routine procedures, as a dental implant I needed to replace a broken tooth. I cannot forget to include the excellent service that Michelle, the hygienist, always provides. read more

Doc Wyne is awesome...exactly what you want from a dentist! Prompt, professional, caring and knowledgeable - along with a great personality! Also has a great team working right along with him. Kudos! read more

I had a dental emergency and although I was not a patient of the practice, they got me and and fixed up with high quality work at a fair price. I am now a patient and expect to be for a very long time. Very caring and helpful staff as well. read more

I thought that I finally found a great dentist near our new home, but he no longer takes my insurance ; (. Office stuff is nice and helpful, too. read more

Office staff very friendly and helpful! The office is super clean, updated and comfortable. The Dr. is professional, knowledgeable, & confident in his approach. read more

Dr. Wyne and his staff are wonderful! The office is nice and I was comfortable throughout the whole appointment. He communicated very well with me and was easy to talk to.

I am happy with my experience and would totally refer others to see him! read more

I arrived 15 minutes early and was seen 10 minutes late. The music in the office was not to my liking. The hygienist was rough. Not a great visit. read more
