I went to an Aspen Dental in PA to get a cleaning, without insurance. There was a possibility it that I was pregnant, so I refused xrays, and they refused to clean my teeth without xrays. My husband had just had dentures with bottom implant pins there. They were never right, and repeatedly kept breaking. They wouldn't give him a refund. We moved and he went to an Aspen Dental in TX, and the problem continued. Overall, he had 7 sets made in 10 years! We ended up financing a whole new set at an independent dentist that specializes in dentures and implants, and so far, so good. Turns out Aspen used "mini implant pins" which we didn't know was a thing, and replacement female parts that had to be placed in the new bottoms were $350 each times 4...for tiny little pieces of metal!!! My opinion is that franchises have a lot of turnover and aren't as willing to make things right. Most places take Care Credit financing.
