I wanted to write a review on Aspen Dental's site in Topsham because bottom line if it wasn't for them I wouldn't have the Amazing smile that I have now.
Growing up I had the most horrific experiences with the Dentist, who I called Hannibal Lechter. I would get physically ill just thinking about it. It carried over into my Adult years and I would get sick to my stomach anytime I had any discomfort in my mouth. Hoping and praying Ibuprofen or Advil would take care of the pain....
See More After getting a major infection about 10 years ago-my face literally doubled in size- I spent 2 days calling Dentists in the local area. I found a great Dentist who extracted the culprits after a big round of antibiotics and a plan of attack was put in place. And even though he gave me new faith in The Dental Industry, at least in him, I was unable to follow through with the plan we had set forth due to the Horrendous cost of it. Fast forward to November 2014. Again a pain I knew all to well was developing. By this time my teeth had begun to chip and flake and I literally broke off half my front tooth on a Tontinos Pizza Roll! I was by this time very self conscience of my smile. Within the last six months before this I had heard from a few close friends some amazing statements regarding Aspen in Topsham. By now the pain was increasing, I was eating soft food for 2 months now due to the condition of my teeth. At 48 years old I had to talk myself into driving there and give myself a pep talk. I thought I was going to be sick. I think I sat in the car for 20 minutes before I told myself....O.K. let's do this.
The minute I walked in I knew I had made the right decision. The Compassion and Kindness they showed me was something I thought was long lost in the Dental Industry. We filled out the necessary paperwork and scheduled x-rays. Everyone from the sweet Tea drinking front desk receptionist to Ryan going over financial stuff, and the truly Amazing Dr. Sheikh , Sarah her Assistant to Kathie some of the most Professional, Amazing, Compassionate and Kindest people I've ever met....all of them! They all changed my thinking regarding Dentists. My upset stomach, feeling sick, nerves went away within 3 visits. If I was feeling nervous they would talk to me and reassure me it would be fine. Within 35 days of my first visit I walked out with my brand new smile and more self confidence than I've ever had! Thanking them is just not enough! Aspen Dental gave me the Beautiful smile I'd been wanting, got rid of my fear of the Dentist and is like another Family!! I can't thank Dr Sheikh, Sarah, Kathie, Ryan and the rest of the gang enough! Thank you for my Beautiful smile!!!!!,
