Wisdom tooth removal in Bensalem, PA
Featured Reviews
They are kind and good over there .
Everyone at aspen was great very helpful and they go over everything so well step by step and they made me feel very comfortable with my visit
So for starters I came here because my tooth cracked over the weekend and I was looking for 24/7 dentists in my area. Couldn’t find nay but this location was the only one who was willing to see a new patient so soon so I booked the appointment and I couldn’t be happier. Especially for Blanca, when I walked in she was the ONLY person at the front desk for a while but she was moving and making things happened. Called my insurance to see if I was in network or not, something my other dentists office kept saying they were doing for months. Unfortunately I wasnt in network but that didnt stop her, once I saw the dentist, me and him came up with a plan and Blanca took her time to work with me and made sure I left there happy with the pricing of everything. I am GLAD that emergency hotline pointed me towards this location and glad that Blanca was there to slowly walk me thru everything. Like a lot of people dentist offices intimidate them but coming here…EVERYONE was helpful and friendly, I didnt feel rushed, I didnt feel like a burden, the dentist made sure all my questions were answered and Blanca made the payment process extremely easy and understandable. I dont feel robbed like I usually do when I leave the dentist. Im one person who is terrified of dentists, like, its disgusting how scared I am of them and their tools…but I dont think I have anything to fear here.

What are wisdom tooth extractions?
Wisdom teeth are the last set of molars to erupt, usually in the late teens or early twenties. Not all wisdom teeth require removal—but when they cause pain, crowding or infection, tooth extraction is often the most effective solution. If the tooth is fully visible, it can usually be removed with forceps under local anesthesia. For teeth that are impacted or partially emerged, a minor surgical procedure may be needed. Your Aspen Dental care team will walk you through which option is best for you and explain how we minimize discomfort.
