I've come to this dentist for years but when I'm being charged $400 for a cleaning and the service…read moreis sub par I decided you know what? I'm going to complain. I usually see a different dentist but Dr. Moody saw me today and he was incredibly rude. Came in, shoved my tongue around, said everything was fine and left within a minute. Didn't say thank you or goodbye or anything. Just terrible bedside manner. I had waited 20 minutes for that too! I don't care what title you have or how much money you make... You owe basic customer service to clients. It is not difficult. They are also booked out through December apparently so I think it's time to find a new dentist. I will say my hygienist was always amazing though.

Called again received the same text " will call you back as soon as possible" Never received a call. Finally called and left a voicemail and did receive a phone call. When I went to reschedule my appointment for cleaning was told I could get in today at 1pm or 5 months later in September. Nothing in between. I prepaid for services, biggest mistake I ever made. Also quoted dental work at a cost of 2 1/2 times the cost I was quoted from a dentist a year earlier. I hope dental cost aren't rising that quickly. I will go anywhere but here. I haven't had any interaction with Dr. Moody, he may be a great dentist but his practice leaves a lot to be desired.

March 28, 2025, I went to Aspen Dental in Glen Carbon, IL for routine dental work following a…read moreconsultation a few days earlier. I was advised to undergo periodontal treatment and a tooth extraction, which I approved ahead of my Friday appointment. After being taken back, I was given numbing injections to prepare for the periodontal procedure. However, I was then left alone in the chair for over 45 minutes with no one checking on me. Knowing the office closes early on Fridays, I became concerned as time kept passing. Eventually, a technician came in and completed what was supposed to be a full periodontal treatment in about 15 minutes for all four quadrants. I've had this procedure done multiple times before, and it has always taken well over an hour. When she began finishing up, I asked if the treatment was complete, and she said yes. I also asked about polishing, and she told me it wasn't included. At that point, I could hear staff rushing around. When I asked what time they closed, I was told they were closing in 10 minutes--which explained why the procedure felt rushed, especially after I had already been left waiting for so long. I was also supposed to have an extraction done that day. A few days later, I called the office to report that my teeth still felt like there was debris left behind from the "treatment." I was scheduled to come back in, and after new X-rays were taken, it was clear that significant areas had been missed and needed to be redone. I spoke with the office manager and expressed my dissatisfaction with the poor quality of care, especially given the high cost. We agreed that I would be refunded all out-of-pocket expenses, and only the periodontal treatment would be billed to insurance, with all other services (extraction, flipper, etc.) refunded. I saw refunds issued back to my credit card, so I assumed everything--including the insurance refund--had been handled. However, when I went to another dentist recently, I found out Aspen Dental never refunded the insurance company as promised. I called to speak with the office manager, but was told she had just joined a conference call. The person I spoke with immediately became defensive and claimed they could not issue refunds for services already rendered. She also stated she was not present when the original agreement was made. This entire experience has been frustrating and unprofessional--from rushed and incomplete treatment to poor follow-through and lack of accountability. I strongly recommend thinking twice before agreeing to services at this practice.

A rather uncomfortable piece of equipment was shoved into my mouth before I was under. The area…read morejust under my nose is numb. I still have two bits of bone making denture wearing painful. When I left the office after surgery, along with plenty of cotton stuffing, they shoved my temporary dentures into my mouth. Why? My temporary dentures would not stay in after visits to correct the problem. No one was really rude, but I got the impression they were in a hurry. I truly wish I had researched denture providers before choosing Aspen. I didn't get a lot of time to think about what I was getting into at the first visit.

I went to Dr. McGinnis as a new patient for a cleaning and was recommended that two cavities needed…read moreto be filled. The dental cleaning staff were very helpful and did a fine job. The first "cavity" that was recommended to be filled, was what I had been told by two previous dentists, a superficial indentation that I was born with. I gave approval to have that filled as I suspected the others were wrong or something had changed. The second "cavity" was filled in a follow up visit. As soon as the anesthesia wore off, I experienced immense and sharp pain from where the Dr. McGinnis drilled. I researched online hoping this was typical and would wear off. After three weeks, of not being able to chew or put any pressure on the left side of my mouth, I returned to Dr. McGinnis and explained the issue. Dr. McGinnis applied local anesthesia to the area, inspected the location with a mirror and said that the pain would wear off. I suggested again that I had waited three weeks and she applied a cold test to the anesthetized area. I explained that I felt a light pain, and she stated that I had nothing wrong and that test proved it. At that point, I calmly pushed for another kind of test and an x-ray was taken. Finally, she admitted that there was an abnormality and stated that I needed a root canal now. Throughout the process, Dr. McGinnis was prideful, raised her voice, and refused to refund me for either: A) services that did not need to be completed due to her initial misdiagnosis, or B) services that actually caused my new and severe pain by drilling too close to my root. If one simply needs a cleaning, the cleaning staff is very welcoming. If anything else is required, find another provider. Hands down the worst experience I've had with a dental provider. I'm all for supporting local providers, but this is not worth the risk.

The dental procedure itself was fine, nothing remarkable. Parking was easy, and while the staff was…read morepolite enough, the real issues began once it came to billing and payments. I couldn't afford to pay the full $1,369 upfront for a root canal (even with insurance), so I applied for the Synchrony Bank CareCredit program. I was approved on the spot in the office for more than the procedure cost, and--trusting the front desk staff's recommendation--I went ahead with it. What I didn't realize at the time was that Synchrony automatically enrolls you in "card protection services" through the application. This added an extra $44 a month on top of potential interest charges. I set up the minimum payment on autopay through the app and thought I was fine, but a year later out of the blue I was notified that my credit limit had been lowered--leaving me now over the limit. Because of the recurring charge, my minimum payment no longer even covered the balance, which put me in a really tough situation. While this may not be the fault of the dental staff (I am unsure of the office's relationship with CareCredit) directly, I strongly caution anyone considering CareCredit. I was able to contact CareCredit and get a refund for the card payment services but the damage had been done and no real explanation was given for lowering the credit limit. If you have any other option, I recommend avoiding this program unless it's an absolute emergency.
