I'm so glad I found this dental office! My bridge broke and it was a pretty dire situation but they were able to see me the same day and the ladies that helped me were SO SWEET! They gave me options and they have this wonderful discount program that covers me for the year at $160! Oh and the waiting area is the cutest I've ever seen! They will definitely be my dental office from now on read more

Just u dental is absolutely the worst dental experience I have ever had! If you value your time and your teeth I would advise you not to go to this dental practice. The office is very disorganized and chaotic, they didn't get me into the exam room until 52 minutes after my scheduled appointment time. read more

since my previous review Dr. Fop has really turned my head around about this place! she made sure to reach out to me with the problems I had personally got me scheduled and made me feel so comfortable my last two visits now! I'm very greatful she turned my view around about this place and I finally have a dentist I can trust! def go see her if you have dental anxiety her and her team make you feel right at home and as comfortable as they can! thanks Dr Fopma! read more

Everyone is great and super welcoming and friendly! TARA is great and educated me well and was awesome and telling me how to help me out

This Dental office is amazing! Dr. Fopma was kind, attentive and most importantly, concerned about how the dental decisions we made together impacted my overall health. I ended up deciding to get a crown that was made, measured and installed perfectly! Not to mention my insurance covered the maximum allowable to boot! I have never been in and out of a dental office, with such quality care, treatment and results with minimal discomfort! Will never go anywhere else and neither should you! Dr. Fop & O&A staff you are the best! read more

I walked in and was greeted by the friendly desk staff . Then Shaniya, Belle and Arsellia who did my X-rays, cleaning and examining were simply amazing, I recommend this place highly! read more

I had an absolutely awful experience with this dentist that has completely upended my life. Last year, I went in with the intention of having all my front teeth pulled and getting a partial denture. However, Dr. Fopma refused to do this. Knowing my teeth were in poor health and visibly broken, dentures were my first choice. I had no pain in my teeth besides minor sensitivity to cold but wanted them to look cosmetically appealing for my wedding in April. But instead, Dr. Fopma insisted that I needed multiple crowns, claiming this would solve my dental issues, improve my smile, prolonging my bone and jaw health, all while supposedly costing less. She ignored my wishes, saying, "I wouldn't let my daughter do that at such a young age." Feeling rushed and pressured in the chair, I reluctantly agreed to the crowns so we could just get started. The results have been disastrous. From the beginning, the crowns were poorly fitted, causing constant pain and sensitivity that never went away. They shift when I chew or even move my mouth in certain ways, putting pressure on different teeth and parts of my gums. Half of them no longer feel securely attached, and my jaw is constantly fatigued near those teeth. When I went back for adjustments about a month after getting the crowns, the dentist was dismissive, blamed me for the pain, and offered no real solutions, except to charge me another $80. I was given antibiotics even though the X-rays showed no infection. Dr. Fopma also did not acknowledge when I mentioned there was movement and grinding of the crowns. About two months after getting the crowns, I went to Comfort Dental for a second opinion. I explained that I had been given antibiotics, which alleviated some of the gum pain but did nothing to address the grinding, tension, or overall pain and sensitivity. The dentist there questioned why I was given antibiotics if I had no infection but suggested I must have had one since the antibiotics provided some relief. They performed tests on my teeth and confirmed that there was definite movement. They presented a few options to fix the issues, but I couldn't afford them. Since then, I've been waiting in pain that only gets worse. On top of that, I was never properly informed about how to care for the crowns. I was only given a quick demonstration of how they fit over a tooth, but no guidance on maintenance, what foods to avoid, or what sensations might indicate a problem. Some of the crowns are so tightly fitted and pointed at the gum line that floss constantly gets stuck, making it extremely difficult to floss properly. When I raised this concern, Dr. Fopma's only response was to "pull harder," even though it felt like the crown might come loose. During an adjustment appointment, the dentist flossed my teeth so aggressively that I was in pain for four hours afterward, ignoring my complaints that flossing was already painful because the teeth were pushing against each other and shifting. I brush twice a day, floss, and use mouthwash at night, thinking it would be enough. Now, I live in constant fear whenever I feel nerve pain, not knowing if it's something serious. I even have to drink everything, including water, through a straw to avoid the pain. I've even scrounged up money to get consistent quarterly cleanings like Dr. Fopma recommended, to show my efforts of taking care of these. This experience has ruined my quality of life. I can no longer eat any of the foods I once enjoyed and have lost nearly 10 pounds over the past 9 months without intending to change my diet or exercise. Anything that requires biting is basically off-limits. While my smile looked good for my wedding in April, it has never felt as good as it looks. Daily things like shaving, washing my face in the shower, applying chapstick or eating a popsicle, cause unnecessary movement. 9 months later, I'm left with crowns that have caused new issues like bite problems and gum irritation. I've spent so much on these crowns that I can't afford to see another dentist to fix the damage or address my other damaged teeth. Maxed out my 2023 and 2024 insurance, and a new carecredit card on 6 teeth with no resolution. I'm stuck in daily discomfort with no end in sight, fearing that my underlying teeth are just decaying beneath these poorly fitted crowns. Even if I had the money, I wouldn't trust this place to do anything but dismiss my claims, instead of listening to the discomfort they caused me. I deeply regret ever trusting this dentist. Their lack of skill, empathy, and willingness to listen has left me in a worse situation than before. Please, save yourself from this nightmare and find a dentist who actually cares about your well-being, not just a quick buck. I've waisted thousands. read more

PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR TEETH. I was a patient at open and affordable Aurora south '22 and '23. I had a root canal done by Dr. Annie, and when I went back to get a crown I expressed that I was still in lots of pain. There should have been no pain since a root canal takes out the nerve of the tooth, so they did some x rays, threw up their hands and said I don't know go see an endo dr." When I went to the endo dr they did their own X-rays and found the tip of an instrument was left in my tooth, causing pain and infection. He showed me on the X-ray myself I couldn't believe O&A didn't see it.... Fast forward through trying to treat the tooth unsuccessfully, I had to lose my whole tooth. And it wasn't a back tooth. I spoke with the owner of O&A who asked me to call him back when I knew what needed to be done. I also received a call from Dr. Annie who performed the procedure, rudely tell me "I can refund your Medicaid?" Which I would have seen none of because I no longer live in Colorado. So I told them I was going to sue. Dr. Annie enthusiastically said "great! Feel free to call the front desk for records". So, I called a dental malpractice lawyer. They explained to me that while accidentally leaving an instrument in your tooth isn't cause to sue, neglecting to tell your patient is. He explained that there are markings on the instrument that are very clear if a piece goes missing. So, they hid it from me! I called O&A back to speak to the owner one more time, but it's been weeks, so a little too late. My lawyer suggested we start by reporting Dr. Annie to DORA, which regulates licensure. We will be in touch. read more

HORRIBLE SERVICE.. UNPROFESSIONAL... Think twice about coming here as they will half ass your dental work and send you home in worse shape than you came in!!! read more

It's not often I leave such a low review but the office failed in proper communication and efficiency with my procedures. Difficult to get a hold of anyone in the office without being put on hold for such prolonged time, and having to follow up myself or I wouldn't hear back. Cleaning felt rushed and fillings hurt despite the excessive amounts of numbing shits received prior. read more

I had a dental emergency on a Friday evening. Open and Affordable Dental in Aurora South was open the next morning and they were able to schedule me right away. Dr. Sarah and assistant Blaine fixed my problem immediately and satisfactorily. I was given options and good advice on how to proceed. I highly recommend them for honesty, openness and sincerity. What impressed me most was their kindness. read more

Very friendly staff. I have a hard time maintaining my teeth care so they made it very easy for me!

Open and Affordable Dental of Aurora has to be the best dental practice I have ever been to. Having recently moved to the Aurora area, I took a chance on an unknown dental practice and "WOW" what a wonderful surprise. KELLI was my dental hygienist who was beyond magnificent. The care, attention and meticulous teeth cleaning I received deserves more than 5 stars. This practice is all about client care and client services. From inviting and exceptional reception services to dental care, Open and affordable Dental of Aurora should be at the top of your list for your next dental appointment. read more

Amazing team everyone is super kind! Highly recommended this office. They got me in super fast.

So here it goes worst dental office I've ever been to will ruin you do not go there. They were supposed to do extraction they just broke tooth and left root inside and now I'm trying to figure out why. This was done by owner of the place which also is a dentist it bothers me on how he can treat a patient like that and then hang up the phone and block you so you would have to call with different phone and not get ahold of him anymore you will reach a representative that just sits there and answer phones all day with there lives and miss lead you in every direction possible beside help. They will ruin your teeth act like they helped and just let it be like you can't do nothing about it I will get to the bottom of this even if I have to fly back out to Colorado save your time and money and health by just going to a better place! read more

The last two times I have been to Open and Affordable, I was seen by Dr. Dinkle, and she is great! Knowledgeable, careful, explains, and was right about the operations she performed for me. She's a good dentist, and takes a bit of ribbing also, I'll be back! Terry Bellomo read more

had a great experience here ! comfortable and friendly staff , Highly recommend :) will be returning

If your a veteran and the VA has sent you here look elsewhere for a dentist. I had two occasions where they had scheduled me for an appointment only to be turned away once I showed up for the appointment. Reason was because they were not sure if everything is covered. They could of told me that over the phone when they called to remind me of the appointment. read more

Literally stellar. Had some pain that I was worried was dental in origin. They got me in the same day, and were incredibly professional and polite. The entire staff was amazing. They were running behind by like 20 minutes (which in my mind is not a big deal at all) but were incredibly apologetic. I kept trying to explain I didn't care at all. One of the dentists even came out and apologized Dr. Doan was the dentist that I saw and she was caring and thorough and competent. I would recommend her to anyone. In fact, I have, even though I only left like 30 minutes ago. She even called me once I left to offer more thoughts on the origin of my pain. Seriously, would highly highly recommend these guys. They were awesome through and through. 6/5 stars read more

I will be forever grateful that I found Open and Affordable Dental on Parker Rd and 225. We had a dental emergency on Friday night, and that's when I found that this place was open on Saturdays!! Whew!! Called the place at 8am Saturday, and after hearing about our emergency, she got me in to see Dr. Annie at 1:20pm. Found out what was causing the problem, and we agreed upon a course of action. What peace of mind they gave me!! Every person there was so kind, I just can't say enough nice words about the staff!! Thank you so much to everyone we interacted with today!! (Price was very reasonable too!!) read more

My wife's terrified of dentists and she had been putting off getting her root canal done all throughout covid. She finally bit the bullet and we went to Open and Affordable Dental. I'll be honest, there was a lot of screaming, crying, and "No no no you're not allowed to put anything in my mouth, even just to see my tooth." The dental assistant was an absolute rockstar and did a great job keeping my wife calm, explaining how the process is going, and generally being a knowledgeable and reassuring presence. The dentist was beyond talented and very understanding and patient as well. While we were there, we found out that my wife's insurance doesn't include dental! Of course, I'm freaking out, but they offered us the Affordable Discount Plan, a one-year plan including an exam visit, x-rays, a cleaning, and discounted dental services across the board for $160. Even with the cheap prices and the discount, I didn't have the funds for the full cost of the root canal, so they set me up with a payment plan without judgment and without making me feel self-conscious about it. I'm so glad my wife is covered for the next year and that finances aren't going to be an insurmountable barrier. read more

They were awesome! We reached out online late Friday night and got an appointment mid day on Saturday for an urgent matter. They were friendly and fast and affordable. Great staff and we highly recommend them. read more
