The Aspen Dental mission statement

Since 1998, Aspen Dental has been dedicated to one mission: ensuring that more Americans can access quality dental care in their communities.

“Aspen Dental was founded in 1998 on a simple belief: That dentistry could be better for patients and providers alike. Together with the dentists we support, we’re committed to breaking down barriers — whether emotional, financial, or practical — so that patients can get the care they need.”

-Bob Fontana, Chairman & CEO, TAG

One goal, one network: Independent dentists at The Aspen Group

There is no single provider of dental care called “Aspen Dental.” Each Aspen Dental branded practice is owned and operated by a licensed dentist. The Aspen Group. (“TAG”) provides administrative and business support services to Aspen Dental branded dental practices.

TAG licenses the “Aspen Dental” brand name to the independently owned and operated dental practices that use its business support services. TAG does not own or operate the dental practices, employ or in any way supervise the dentists providing dental care, and control over the care provided is the sole responsibility of the independent practice and the dentists they employ. Services and office practices may vary across dental practices, and patients should contact the dental offices directly for all questions concerning their dental treatment.​

The term “Aspen Dental” issued throughout this website and, depending upon the context, may refer to an individual Aspen Dental branded dental practice or multiple Aspen Dental location dental practices.​
