Featured Reviews
Well, this was my first time ever going to Aspen dental I have heard a lot of scary stories about this in his office not this particular one in Lebanon but just in general. But I’m going to tell you when I walked in. It was very pleasant. There were live flowers everywhere in the lobby and I’m a flower person.. Then I was greeted by the receptionist, along with the other two ladies sitting behind the counter! Well, no singer then I got ready to sit down. Phoebe was calling my name. I saw that she was pregnant and we immediately started a conversation. Phoebe is a very sweet young lady. I really like her and by the way she loves to sing, which is amazing. So she took the x-rays and then I sat in the chair and she done my impression as we talked well then who comes walking in my dentist doctor Kiffin I do believe that’s right, but after this visit. His nickname will be Dr Jamaican. So we talked he was very nice. Told me a little bit about his self and I told him a little bit about myself even before we got started, which was great.. He gave me his opinion, and I gave him my opinion and then we made an agreement on what I could afford to have done. No pressure absolutely amazing. And last, but not least I got to meet Kimberly. She was very professional, very polite very thorough and didn’t mind you asking questions. Then we got to talk about Flowers and she told me that all of those upfront were hers. They are very beautiful flowers like I said from the very beginning and my daughter and I love Flowers and I just recently lost my daughter to cancer after fighting the battle for three years, and I told her that I would love to bring her one of her plants and she got the biggest smile on her face. It was very pleasant. She said that she would name it, Ashley, and that really warmed my heart. So I am looking very forward to going back to my appointment on Monday not only to take Kimberly a lovely flower, but to also see Phoebe and talked to Dr. Jamaican. That’s only his nickname that I gave him so therefore I cannot complain at all about any thing that took place on my First visit when I walked out of there, I was very pleased and felt very comfortable with the decision that I made. So whatever you do, don’t listen to what people tell you go and experience it for yourself but again this is the one in Lebanon on South Cumberland. I couldn’t ask for better people.
I was really impressed with the service I received at Aspen Dental⁠. My interactions with the staff were very professional, yet the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Even though I have anxiety about going to the dentist, I felt comfortable talking with them about my concerns. The dentist, in particular, was very understanding and seemed genuinely aware that many people experience anxiety when seeking dental care. The finance representative was also down-to-earth, friendly, and easy to talk with. Overall, my experience was wonderful. I never realized a dental office could have such a positive, comfortable atmosphere. The kindness, professionalism, and understanding shown by the entire team made a significant difference in my visit.
This is without a doubt the BEST EXPERIENCE with a dentist and staff I have ever experienced front the front desk all the way Dr Kippin! Their ability to make you feel comfortable and relax through rhe procedure is a skill all by itself. I had a root canal on Wednesday and another tooth pulled on Thursday with almost no pain even to the point where I worked on both days following. And Autumn was the best hygienist ever I’ll be requesting her every time I go to Aspen!

What are dental fillings?

A tooth filling is a restorative treatment that repairs a tooth that has been damaged by decay or minor fractures. When getting a filling, your dentist will remove any decay in your tooth and then fill the leftover space with either composite resin, glass ionomer or amalgam. This restores the shape, function and strength of your tooth while helping to minimize any discomfort or sensitivity.

Types of dental fillings

Composite fillings

The top choice for tooth restoration—a resin composite filling is made to match your tooth’s shade for a natural appearance.

Glass ionomer fillings

Commonly used for small cavities, these fillings release fluoride, which can help prevent further tooth decay.

Amalgam fillings

Silver tooth fillings (amalgam fillings) are durable, cost-effective and can contain metals such as silver, tin and copper.

Dental filling in Lebanon, TN FAQs

Explore answers to common questions so you know what to expect—before, during and after your dental filling visit at Aspen Dental.

You may need a dental filling if you have tooth pain, visible holes, dark spots, or sensitivity to hot, cold or sweet foods. Getting treatment early can prevent more serious dental problems.

Tooth-colored composite fillings are often best for front teeth. They blend in naturally, bond securely to your tooth and provide strong support in visible areas.

Yes. Modern tooth-colored fillings are strong and resist normal wear. While they may not last as long as metal fillings in areas of your mouth you frequently chew in, with proper care, they can last many years.

Wondering, “do cavity fillings hurt?” No, they don’t. During your treatment, we keep you comfortable with a local anesthetic. You may feel pressure, but should not feel pain. Any mild sensitivity afterward usually goes away within a few days.

Avoid chewing with the tooth that was filled until the numbness wears off. Brush and floss gently around the area as normal, and avoid sticky or hard foods for the first day. Maintain regular oral hygiene and schedule routine dental checkups to keep the filling in good condition.
