Aspen Dental Opens New Office in Oak Creek, WI

Aspen Dental, a leading provider of denture and dental services, will celebrate the grand opening of its Oak Creek, Wisconsin office on Thursday, February 11. The office, located in the Howell Oaks Plaza at 8241 Howell Avenue, Suite 100, will provide patients with high-quality denture and dental care and offer a wide range of affordable payment plan options. The opening marks Aspen Dental’s ninth practice in Wisconsin.

“There are a number of reasons that patients put off making a dental appointment, from affordability and convenience to concerns about how much time has passed since their last exam,” said Dr. Gregory Morris, lead dentist. “Our goal is to make sure that patients have a comfortable experience in the dentist’s chair, so we invite the people who live and work in Oak Creek and the surrounding communities to make an appointment with Aspen Dental.”

Dr. Morris earned his DDS degree from Howard University College of Dentistry in Washington, D.C.

Aspen Dental will provide patients with a full range of denture and dental services, including hygiene, oral surgery, fillings, whitening and crown and bridge work. Aspen Dental is the only authorized provider of eight styles of full and partial hand-crafted ComfiDents® brand dentures. As an added convenience to denture patients, the Oak Creek office will have its own on-site denture laboratory, which ensures same-day turnaround for select new dentures, denture repairs, relines or adjustments.

The Oak Creek office, which will employ about eight to 10 staff members, will feature state-of-the-art Kodak Dental Systems digital radiography products to better diagnose, serve and treat patients. The new office will also provide patients with Vizilite Plus®, the most advanced technology in oral cancer screening. Vizilite Plus® uses a blue-light, “glowstick” technology that detects oral cancer at its earliest stage.

Aspen Dental offers free new-patient exams, special pricing on x-rays for new patients without insurance, special pricing on dental and denture services for all patients, and senior discounts.

The office will be open extended hours, including select Saturdays, and will work with all insurance providers. Walk-in patients and emergencies are welcome.

Put Dental Care at the Top of your New Year’s Resolution List

Many of us have already adopted a New Year’s resolution. Placing a priority on your oral health should be near the top of everyone’s list.

Medical research has found that infections or bacteria in the mouth are linked to overall health. Periodontal (gum) disease, an infection of the tissues that support the teeth, is closely associated with the development of strokes, heart disease, pre-term births and pneumonia.

According to the American Dental Hygienists’ Association, nearly 75 percent of American adults suffer from various forms of gum disease and don’t know it.

Minimize your risk by following good oral hygiene steps and visiting your dentist twice a year for exams and cleanings. Brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss at least once daily. Limit your intake of sweets, especially sugared, carbonated beverages. Eat more fruits and vegetables. Drink more water. Individuals with dentures should brush and rinse their dentures daily and clean with denture cleanser. Taking care of your oral health will help your overall health throughout the New Year and beyond.
