A new Aspen Dental-branded office is opening in Augusta, GA on Thursday, December 11.  Located at 3456 Wrightsboro Road, the conveniently-located practice will provide dental services that range from dentures and preventive care to general dentistry and restoration. 

Dr. May Yang, lead dentist at the Augusta office, received her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree at the University of Missouri, Kansas City. Dr. Yang looks forward to meeting the Augusta community and providing much-needed access to dental care and education.

The Augusta office, located in Richmond County, is one of 18 Aspen Dental-branded locations in Georgia, a state where 157 of 159 counties (including Richmond County) have dental health professional shortage areas as designated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

According to a study conducted in 2013 by Syracuse University's Whitman School of Management, each new Aspen Dental-branded office supports local community growth by contributing more than $1.3 million in positive economic impact through job creation and capital investment. The local community benefits through investment in office construction, furniture and fixtures, jobs created and wages and benefits paid, taxes, and investment in marketing and advertising.

In addition to offering patients the choice of seven styles of Aspen Dental's exclusive ComfiDents® brand full and partial dentures, the practice will provide comprehensive exams, hygiene services, treatment of periodontal (gum) disease, extractions, fillings, oral surgery, whitening, and crown and bridge work. The office features digital radiography and offers advanced screening for oral cancer. 

At this new Aspen Dental-branded practice, Dr. Yang and staff provide: 

• Personalized treatment and friendly service. Quick-fix solutions don't solve larger or chronic oral health problems. That's why the caring dentists at Aspen Dental-branded practices take a comprehensive approach to dental care. Each patient receives a customized treatment plan designed by the dentist with long-term oral and overall health in mind. And since no one likes an unexpected bill, the practice offers benefits like a price guarantee and insurance estimate guarantee as part of its Peace of Mind Promise. 
• Affordable care. Cost shouldn't prevent patients from getting the dental care they deserve. That's why Aspen Dental-branded practices are committed to keeping prices low, as well as offering special promotions, senior discounts, and free new-patient exams and X-rays for patients without dental insurance. The practice works with all insurance providers and handles the paperwork, saving patients time and hassle. 
• Customization and a Money-Back Guarantee for denture patients. When patients choose Aspen Dental for any of the seven styles of ComfiDents® full and partial dentures, they have the peace of mind of knowing that the supportive dentists and staff will go above and beyond to ensure proper fit and comfort of their custom-crafted dentures.  As an added convenience, Aspen Dental practices have on-site denture laboratories, which help facilitate quick turnaround for denture repairs, relines or adjustments. Getting used to dentures takes some time, but if patients are dissatisfied with their dentures for any reason – the practice will refund the cost of the dentureswhen patients return them within 90 days. 
• Convenient hours and location. The office will be open extended hours, including evenings and select Saturdays, so that patients can see the dentist at a time that works best for their schedule. Walk-in and emergency patients are welcome.
