Featured Reviews
My son has seen Dr. Stephanie Aboody for over a year, and our experience has been outstanding from the start.
What stands out most is how genuine she is. She's knowledgeable, honest, and clearly cares about her patients, but she's also funny and personable in a way that's rare to find in healthcare. She has a natural ability to put people at ease, whether she's talking to a nervous child or answering a parent's questions.
As a parent, I've always appreciated that she takes the time to explain things clearly and gives straightforward recommendations based on what's best for the patient. I've never felt rushed, dismissed, or treated like just another appointment.
My son trusts her, enjoys seeing her, and leaves appointments smiling, which isn't something many parents can say about dental visits.
Great dental care matters, but so does the experience. Dr. Stephanie Aboody brings both. She combines professionalism, kindness, humor, and genuine compassion, making patients and families feel at ease.
We're incredibly grateful for the care she's provided and would recommend her without hesitation, which means so much to me!! Thank you for what you do and for what you take on each day!!
This place is great. The employees, the atmosphere, all of it. I was told by a few people not to come here because they had to pay hundreds and thousands of dollars for their treatments, the people were rude, etc. My particular treatment IS thousands of dollars, but it’s my own fault and for dental care costs, these wonderful people gave me a great deal. A huge shoutout to Dr. Aboody. She’s simultaneously stern but kind, comforting but informative and NOT judgmental. She didn’t make me feel ashamed for the state of my teeth and that’s my biggest praise.
I'm editing to add that I didn't even realize how much of a deal these people cut me. I went through all stages of grief in a span of an hour and after some research, I finally then realized how much these WONDERFUL people are doing for me and my situation. So a huge shout out to the administration woman whose name escapes me. THANK YOU!
Thank you to everyone here and I look forward to continuing my treatment here!
I never thought I’d give a dental office a 5 star review for a root canal, but my experience at Aspen Dental in Waterville deserves that rating! Dr. Z is very skilled at this procedure. The pain was minimal and was only during the application of Novocain. The entire process took less time than expected. I hope I never need another root canal, but if I do I’ll have it done at Aspen Dental in Waterville.

A loose or knocked out tooth
When a tooth is loose or knocked out, fast treatment is key to saving it. Come in quickly, within the first hour if possible. If your tooth was knocked out, handle it gently by the crown while avoiding touching the root of your tooth. If possible, gently rinse it and place it back in your mouth.

Persistent bleeding from your gums, lips or tongue
When you come in, we’ll assess the area that’s bleeding to prescribe a personalized care plan. Our providers can help with a wide range of common issues.
