Being forced to pay for Motto treatment after they said they were stopping treatment.
I went to the Oak Ridge location where I began treatment with Motto aligners. At a certain point in treatment (pretty much the end) week 17/22 my aligners weren’t shifting my teeth correctly. They removed my attachments to make new aligners. I waited from April until Sept and heard nothing from them. I finally go down in person and ask about the aligner...
Read full review of Aspen DentalBilled for procedure that did not happen
I would give NEGATIVE stats if I could. NEVER go to an Aspen Dental! I went there over a year ago, they kept billing me for Flouride treatment that I did NOT get (because I knew it was not covered by insurance.) Every bill I got, I called and they said they would take it off and take care of it, around 3 times. I stopped getting bills, so I figured they finally took it off. Today I got notice from a collection agency! Saying that Aspen Dental sent me to collections for that $21 Flouride treatment... that I NEVER even got!
Deep cleaning.
I stayed confined during the Pandemic and had not visited the Dentist for about three years. It was time to repair the damage done. I went into Aspen dental at office#3369-Poninciana Fl on September 9, 2022, at 10:00 am for my free exam and requested a deep cleaning. They X-rayed my teeth, and I was counseled on what needed to be done. They said they could do the deep cleaning that day and gave me a cost of $597.00 which I agreed to. I have a knee replacement, so I needed antibiotics and they said they had some to give me, so I agreed. I went through the procedure and when finished I was a little dizzy which I just put aside and went home. I got very woozy and felt terrible so I went to my Heart doctor the next day for advice and was advised to have a loop put in my chest to monitor my heart to see what the problem could be. This is all beside the point. The problem I have is they billed me $597.00; They also billed my insurance company $2,686.00 which is a total rip off for a deep cleaning that only took one hour. I contacted my insurance which paid Aspen Dental already, and I have to pay my credit card yet which I will pay off. I advised my insurance company that they have been ripped off by Aspin Dental and I have also been ripped off. I have been trying to get ahold of Aspen Dental, and also tried to get ahold of the corporate office with no Avail but It is next to impossible to get someone to answer their phone. My advice to anyone that reads this is to tighten your belt if you use their services because you will pay for it. I have never been charged so much for a deep cleaning.
Sincerely,

Desired outcome: I'd appreciate a response and will not be using their services ever again.

Dental Implant
I am having a tooth replaced by implant at Aspen Dental in Yulee Florida. All prep is complete. But now I'm asked for $2200 more for the tooth itself.
Someone dropped the ball.”
Thus far they are just ghosting me.
This process began in January 2022.
I was given a quote of $4766 and had that amount forwarded from Care Credit to Aspen Dental. No one ever mentioned an extra $2200 throughout the entire process. Impressions were taken and the implant was made. I arrived to have the implant put in and was told then it would be $2200. But there is no record or reference to that amount anywhere.
Aspen gives the impression that they want to help and facilitate but they are never available to do so. The clerk couldn’t explain the extra amount she had no context available to her. She was just there to ask for the money.
To make a long story short, they are holding the implant as leverage and not completing the job because someone in their office has made a mistake and now they’re back pedaling.
I called the office yesterday and was transferred to the Kingsland office because of issues in their communication system. The gentleman understood my issue but said he would contact the Yulee office and they could expedite. This has been going on for a month. The office never calls or requests I come in. Meanwhile I have a post with no implant.
Whatever you can do to move this forward is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Desired outcome: Implant installed at no additional cost.
Teeth Cleaning
Let me start out by saying "I just wanted to get my teeth cleaned".
I am recently retired and have a Humana Preventative Plus insurance policy. It had been very hard to find a provider that would take this insurance.
I set up an appointment to get a cleaning scheduled. I was told that x-rays and a pre-evaluation would need to be performed before an appointment for cleaning could be set up. I was told that my insurance would cover that.
The day of the pre-evaluation, x-rays and a 3-D image were taken of my mouth. I asked again if this was covered by my plan. I was assured that it would be. The cost was about $200.00, but was told that Aspen would waive the first visit cost if not covered. When I received the billing, Humana only covered $50.00 of the x-rays (bitewing), the rest was not covered. When asked about the remainder, I was told that if I did not have insurance the first bill would have been covered by Aspen, but because I had insurance the remainder was my responsibility - $148.00!
I did set up a cleaning appointment. The staff told me that the cleaning would be covered by my insurance. When I arrived for my appointment, I was told that there would be an additional $85.00 charge because my insurance would not cover the "enhanced" cleaning that my teeth needed. When I inquired what "enhanced" was, it was stated that I was given that information in the meeting that I had to determine my dental treatment plan. That meeting did not happen. When pushed back and questioned the additional charges, the technician said she was not feeling comfortable, and the discussion was no longer productive. She left the room.
The office manager came in and said they (Aspen) would not take me on as a patient and escorted me out of the building.
As I see it, the minute I called into question their insurance billing practices and lack of transparency, I became a threat. This is the first time I have been kicked out of and banned from any business. I have been working with the public my entire career and this was the most confusing situation I have ever witnessed!
Desired outcome: My money back from the first appointment that I had to have performed before I could get my teeth cleaned. Which did not happen.
Aspen Dental/ Appointment dissatisfaction
Aspen Dental in Evans Ga located at 3809 Evans Mill Dr Ste C Evans, GA 30809, has scheduled a dentist appointment for me two separate times, one hour one way for me. Once arriving they told me TWICE that my dental appointment had been canceled due to not confirming my appointment. I informed the lady that I had never received a call and that me making the appointment would be my confirmation for my second appointment. So twice in Evans was not the worst of it. Aspen Dental in Augusta Ga, located at 3456 Wrightsboro Rd Augusta, GA 30909, made an appointment for me. Before hanging up the phone making the appointment I told the lady what had been going on and she assured me that, that would not happen again. Well, I show up to my appointment to be told that they had to cancel appointments due to lack of work force and my name just happened to be one. Without notice. Where does it stop? When does it stop? When you have no business due to bad reviews and word of mouth? Taking my business elsewhere.
Desired outcome: I would like answers to why I had to drive 3 different times, 1 hour one way, to get no help with treatment of mouth. My mouth is in pain and has a smell to it. jeremymullins.[protected]@yahoo.com [protected]
I am upset with Aspen Dental because of the unwillingness to work with me as a patient on finances. I just through paying $700 this past Friday. I had a dental appointment today Sept. 26th and the receptionist told me I owed another $147 which I didn't have. She didn't want to work with me and I walked out. The First time I went to Aspen Dental I was done the same way. I decided to give them another chance after not going to a dentist for about seven years. I am being done the same way. Your about to lose a patient again unless I can be worked on the financial part then I will go to another dentist. I only make so much money. The cleaning I was supposed to have today I want another appointment without having to put up another $147 and I will pay on my next payday. The choice is yours if you still want me as your patient
Dentures
I went to Aspen Dental here in Valdosta Georgia. Which was recommended by my dental insurance. I asked for a deep clean and top denture to be made. A pen applied for a $3000.00 loan in my name that I didn't agree to I wouldn't have agreed to a loan of that amount. They did a horrible job with the dentures. In other words I was told that I had to except them even though they don't serve the purpose. I asked for a copy of the bill so I can see what I was being charged for it took 3 hours for them to make up charges but they left out the dentures.
Desired outcome: I'm not satisfied with Aspen service nor them applying for a $3000 loan without discussing it with me. I feel that Aspen should repay that loan and never request a loan in one name without telling the individual the amount.
Lower Dentures
September 13 2022 i called corp canplain about my lower dentures. allthey said ,after i told the person that after taken a bite , the fall off. of my lower gu there m. they go its sits on top ,of gum. that theres nothing they can do ?why could they put it over top ofgums. so now i can not yous them ';.so igot yous an ask to aspen to call me Larry Ashby at [protected] address at351 Walnut street Columbia,Pa 17512 to discuess about money return email [protected]@gmail.com
Dentures
First things first, I came to Aspen Dental for help! I have a full upper dental plate and two molars left and right which secured the denture, I had only one tooth on the bottom which was broken and I could not chew anymore. I was a mess.
I am a 75 year old veteran seeking help , The Veterans Administration does not treat dental work unless you are 100% disabled I am only 50% living on Social security. I found myself needing dental work so I came to Aspen Dental Mount Pleasant SC 29466. I spoke with there manager Michael, he said he could help me. I showed him smiling upper teeth and explained he could match the teeth and the smile. I was able to get financing through Care Credit. $2800. Michael introduced me to one of your dentists. I asked him could he duplicate the same look smile. He absolutely said to me he could and even better! Now he showed me some sample teeth color, size gum variations and explained to me these would be my temporary dentures and would need to ware them for 10 to 12 weeks to allow my gums to heal..
Now the problem ! I came back to Aspen Dental for the final dentures and have new cast of my jaw for the new dentures . NO Dr. Ioulo (noy sure of the spelling) and manager Lauren explained the dentures I was wearing were my actual dentures. I tried to explain that this was not, and the final dentures were to be as the ones I had. So they continued to explain that was the finished product .
Today I called 09/14/2022 spoke with Lauren explained my problem with the shifting, biting ,off center, falling out of mouth when chewing. Her answer to this was she has no technician to fix the problem so she gave me a phone number to call for an appointment in Aspen in Charleston for a fitting.
Now I am beyond myself I came to Aspen Dental for help! now instead I walk around literarily with my dentures falling out of my mouth when I try to eat and covering my mouth when I meet and greet someone because even my smile is gone because the dentures are to small and don't show as they did before. What a mess
Desired outcome: I wish to have some from Aspen Dental to analyze and correct this horrible mess I an so humiliated that a company could do so wrong by hurting a 75 year old man, Veteran needing help.
Dishonest business
Aspen Dental Midland, MI.
9/12/2022
I went in to have my teeth checked and discuss a plan to fix them. they gave me a treatment plan and a price. I agreed to the price and set an appointment.
2 days later they called me and said they will not honor that price, that they want an additional $859.80. By the end of the call they still refused to honor their agreement.
Desired outcome: I do not trust them at this point, I just want to warn others so they don't fall into the same scam.
Tooth transplant & cleaning
DO NOT GO TO ASPEN DENTAL ! First of all they have Terrible customer service. I had gone for a consultation for some dental work and I explained that I asked them if they’d be able to do a tooth transplant, as I had a missing tooth. They told me they were able to do it with no issues. The day came to do the procedure, they gave me a consent form to sign and hadn’t explained the possible complications until right before the procedure. I decided not to go through with the procedure as the possible complications were excessive . As soon as, I stated I wanted to cancel the procedure I got an attitude. Prior to this transplant procedure I got a cleaning done and was charged 1,760 for A REGULAR CLEANING! They had claimed this was a “deep cleaning” but, I have gotten many cleanings throughout my life time that were much better than this one! Do not waste you time or money coming here!
Desired outcome: For people to know to avoid this place at all costs!
Customer service
I called to schedules an appointment to have impressions made. I already had the implants in. I talked to Monica who said I have to wait 4 to 6 months. I said its been over 4 months. The she began yelling at me telling me.."What did I just tell you!" So I asked to speak to someone else. Sasha got on the phone and she began berating me telling me.."Monica...

To whom it may concern:
I am Wendell McMillan a former patient of
Aspen Dental Huntsville Al.
925 Bob Wallace Ave. SW STE 30
Huntsville Al. 35801
I began treatment with Aspen Dental Huntsville on December 1, 2021 and had
my last visit on August 16, 2022. On this date they attempted to fit me with an upper denture. I told them at that time that the denture was hurting my gum. I have tried to wear the denture but it hurts and I cannot eat with it.
I hereby request a partial refund so I can find another dentist who can fit me with a denture that is comfortable.
Desired outcome: I would a partial refund.The denture is of no use to me.
They Took the Wrong Tooth
I went into their Beckley office and they took the wrong tooth and tried to blame it on ME. They pulled the first instead of the second one and stick to that story entirely. I have disputed the payment and plan on getting a lawyer if I have to.
This was on 9/9/2022 at 8 am -- it was my first and last appointment. They wouldn't even pull the right tooth either. They said I'd have to make an appointment and come back.
I will never be coming back!
Desired outcome: I think they should pull the right tooth free of charge.
New dentures not fitting right.
GUARANTEED! New dentures are to big, painful to keep in my mouth….I need LOTS of adhesive and that only lasts about 2hours before the dentures are bouncing around and falling out of my mouth. This has been going on since last December (2021). All I get is adjustment appointments and I’m told to use more adhesive. The tube says use only once a day (zinc) FOR ILL FITTING DENTURES These people evidently can’t read and have NO medical training at all
Desired outcome: They need to honor their money back guarantee I really don’t want a big hassle over this. Just do what you have advertised. Please refund.
Morristown,Tenn ; Rude & unprofessional
[protected] @ 8;17amest
in my personal experience , Rude unprofessional staff, and this business does not care even a little bit about their customers. I was in severe pain and was literally 2 minutes late for my appointment and they refused to treat me . I personally sat and waited 30 minutes past my appointment time a few years ago and they never said sorry about my wait , etc.. but they can refuse treatment on a regular customer for 2 minutes ... I stated I was sorry because I had to run back home and get the names of my blood pressure medicine because they requested a list of any medication I was taking . I would never ever ever ever ever ever recommend this place to anyone not even someone I did not like .. stay away & go somewhere else within the region , you will be happier, save money, and you will be treated as a valued customer not a dollar amount !
Overall office
Went for first visit. Everything was fine. Went to second visit. NO DOCTOR. I paid over 11,000.00 up front for pulling seven teeth upper and lower denture and 2 implants. Talked to office manager. She said I would get impressions and lower teeth pulled this week. She Alison told me my implants would be done after my gums would heel in 5 weeks and implants would’ve placed. Lie lie lie about everything. After I paid all my money I found out that it will be 6 months after teeth are pulled to get implants. I want a refund. No one knows what is going on. Now the tell me they are going under another aspen dental in another town that is 70 miles away. I have tried to call business manager several times but she will not talk to me. Rip off! This office is in Crestview FL WHICH IS ONLY 25miles away. Can’t afford gas to go 70 miles. REFUND REFUND REFUND!
Desired outcome: I WANT A REFUND!!!!!!
Service is awful, but billing statements way ahead of services done
I had recent teeth extracted and dentures added, (and I can't even wear bottom plate). Due to the pieces of tooth they left in gums. It has caused horrible pain, every time I tell them they make an appointment, then cancel it an hour before I get there every time. They continue to deny seeing me about this problem, and won't make an adjustments, but want me to pay the bill. They told me I would not have to go without teeth, but have NOT been able to wear bottom plate at all for 8 weeks now, how embarrassing. I'm gonna consult a lawyer
