I think Aspen Dental is a very warming place. Whe I was growing up the dentist I had scared me to death. I had bad experiences with him. So naturally as an adult I become very Leary on deciding where I would go. When I found Aspen Dental and had my first appointment I was terrified when I walked through the door. By the time I left I was very relaxed and smiling. Couldn't have been an easier visit if I tried myself. Now I don't mind making appointments! Yahoo for Aspen a Dental , where have you been all my life
Things don't normally go well for me and I tend to have bad luck, but my appointment (that I was so nervous for) went the best it possibly could have! From first walking in the door I was treated great, then the nurse I had was AMAZING! Totally made me so comfortable and explained everything to me, and made sure I understood. The last step was the finance lady to help see if I could even get this done. She entered me into a credit place that puts the money up for u and u pay them back, I was approved and before I understood it she was more excited than I was. I had a great experience all around and am looking forward to working with them to get my smile back! Thank u to the ladies at Aspen!!
