Industry Leader Opens First Dental Practice in Walker Michigan



To provide access to affordable and quality denture and dental care to an underserved population, Aspen Dental (www.aspendent.com), one of the nation's fastest-growing networks of full-service dental and denture offices, is opening its first practice in Walker, and the sixth in the state. The new office is scheduled to open Thursday, May 1 at Green Ridge Square, 3320 Alpine Avenue.

Other Aspen Dental locations in the state are in Grandville at 4391 Canal Street; in Grand Rapids at 3767 28th Street SE; in Lansing at Azrieli Plaza, 3201 E. Grand River Avenue; in Portage at 6714 S. Westnedge Avenue; and in Mount Pleasant at 4459 East Bluegrass Road.

Aspen Dental will provide a full range of denture and dental services, including hygiene, oral surgery, fillings, teeth whitening, and crown and bridge. Aspen, a leader in denture services, offers eight models of its leading comfidents brand, custom-crafted full and partial dentures. To accentuate its denture offerings, the Walker office will have its own denture laboratory, which ensures same-day turnaround for new dentures, denture repairs, relines or adjustments.

Aspen Dental's newest office also features state-of-the-art digital radiography services to better diagnose, serve and treat patients. In addition, Aspen Dental offers Vizilite Plus, a high-tech screening exam that detects oral cancer at its earliest stage.

As part of its grand opening, Aspen Dental is offering free new patient exams and x-rays, and up to $600 off selected denture styles.

"Our goal is simple: to provide exceptional, affordable dental and denture care to people who live and work in the Walker area," said Dr. Isam Hamati, who oversees Aspen Dental offices in the area. "Most importantly, we want to provide our patients with a dentist and staff they can trust, who listen to patients, understand their needs, and respect them. We're thrilled to bring access to high-quality, full service oral health care to the area."

Aspen's growth, from 13 offices in 1998 to more than 140 in 11 states, has been driven by the demand for high-quality, yet affordable dental and denture services. Aspen Dental provides access to quality care through convenient locations, extended hours, affordable fees and a variety of payment options. Aspen also works with all insurance providers.

The Walker office will be open extended hours and features ample free parking. The office welcomes walk-in patients. To make an appointment, patients may call (616) 785-3100 or visit www.aspendent.com.
