Eric was very helpful with the consultation afterwards.
I was scared out of my mind since I did not grow up going to the dentist due to no insurance. I made sure that I went & took my children once I was older. Although I made sure they had the care they needed & they had beautiful teeth I was still struggling. I came to Aspen dental & Dr Dominique Johnson & her hygienist really got to me. They were kind and very compassionate. Once she let me know the dental journey I had ahead I was disappointed but not surprised. She then got me with a dental financial guru named Eric who worked his magic and we were able to begin scheduling my dental journey. Now all I can do is pray that all goes well but I definitely feel more comfortable knowing that the people taking care of me look like me and truly want to help.
I am at phase one of my implant journey, and so far couldn't be happier.With the staff and the service at aspen. The Doc really knows what she's doing and makes sure to listen to any concerns or questions to make it the best experience possible. Staff was friendly and seem to genuinely care about how you're feeling. I would highly recommend aspen on university parkway.For any of your dental needs. Kristine

With local anesthesia, your Aspen Dental provider will keep you as comfortable possible. During your procedure, you may feel pressure as your tooth is removed. After your procedure, mild sensitivity is common and should fade after a short period of time. Your provider will provide you detailed after-care instructions and, if needed, medication to manage any discomfort.
Most patients feel much better within a few days. Surgical extractions, especially for wisdom teeth, may require a week or more to fully recovery. Healing is different for everyone and depends on things like your overall health, the complexity of your extraction and how well you follow after-care instructions.
You can usually remove gauze once bleeding has stopped, which may take a few hours after your procedure. Your provider will give you specific instructions to help you heal safely. It’s important to follow these instructions carefully to ensure you fully recover.
If your procedure involves sedation, fasting for several hours ahead of your visit may be required. Your provider will let you know exactly how to prepare. For simple extractions with local anesthesia only, fasting is usually not necessary. If you have questions, reach out to your local Aspen Dental office for further details.
Soft foods are recommended for the first 24 to 48 hours. Options include yogurt, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, soft pastas and smoothies. As healing progresses, you can reintroduce solid foods when it feels right for you.
Make sure to avoid crunchy, sticky or very hot foods until cleared by your provider.
Follow all after-care instructions given to you by your provider. Typically, you’ll be guided to: Avoid smoking or vaping, keep your head elevated, use ice to reduce swelling. Once cleared by your provider, maintain good oral hygiene by brushing gently around the area of your extraction.
