Thank you Tara, RDH for world class personalized professional service. Your knowledge as a dental hygienist exceeded my expectations. Your gentle touch and comforting voice helped me navigate and control the negative emotional noise in my brain the very first time I sat in your chair. Your enthusiasm for better oral health is outstanding and contagious because your words have encouraged me to strive for better oral health. I will travel the globe over to find you if you ever leave Aspen Dental. Thank you Aspen Dental for employing a devoted dental hygienist. I wish you could be a fly on the wall to hear how she talks-up the practice. I say...give that woman a raise!!! Most of all Tara, thank you for helping me.
I needed to see the dentist this a.m. for a sore cheek and swollen gum but had no appt. No problem, Sarah made it happen and Katie and Dr. Ana x-rayed and examined my mouth. The issue resolved itself but Im so grateful for the amazing customer service and very thorough examination.
Also, Tara is my hygienist, she does a great job every time. She is very thorough, professional and and gives me some really good maintenance tips.

What is a root canal?
A root canal is an endodontic treatment that cleans infection inside your tooth so we can save it instead of taking it out. If left untreated, the pulp that has nerves or tissue may die as a result of infection. Left untreated, an infected tooth can cause damage and lead to other issues.

If cost is what’s holding you back, don’t delay your visit—we accept most insurances and financing options—so you’ll know exactly what to expect.
