When the No. 39 Aspen Dental Chevrolet debuts at the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway on Saturday, July 7, a special passenger will be along for the ride. U.S Army veteran Michelle Frizzell, a patient of the Aspen Dental office located in Monaca, Pa., will have her smile featured on the rear quarter-panel of Ryan Newman's No. 39 Aspen Dental Chevrolet.
And yet another race fan will be enjoying the Coke Zero 400 in person – Jeff Spohn of Adrian, Mich., who won the Aspen Dental BBQ Sweepstakes. He and five lucky guests are traveling to Daytona Beach to grill with Ryan Newman and Tony Stewart at an exclusive barbecue compliments of Aspen Dental. They'll also enjoy VIP access to the race on July 7.
This weekend marks the first time that Aspen Dental serves as primary sponsor of SHR's No. 39 Chevrolet. Aspen Dental will also be the primary sponsor of the No. 39 Chevrolet with Newman at the September race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon. On all other races this season, Aspen Dental is an associate sponsor with placement on the lower-rear quarter panel of the No. 39 Chevrolet and on the upper chest of Newman's uniform.
Michelle's Aspen Dental Review
Michelle wrote the following about her experience at Aspen Dental in Monaca, Pa., in the review she submitted on AspenDentalReviews.com: "It was awesome. I was in extreme pain for weeks and had huge anxiety about going to the dentist. I have fear about dental work and the price. Both were conquered."
Aspen Dental has been celebrating patient stories by featuring patient photos on Newman's car since April, and will continue to do so throughout the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. It's a way to celebrate the stories that Aspen Dental hears every day about how getting the right dental care hasn't just changed patients' smiles, but their lives.
Michelle joins a list of patients who have been featured on Newman's car, which includes: Bethany Godin of Worcester, MA; Amy Navey of Spartanburg, SC; Linda Conder of Elizabethtown, KY; and Peter Russo of Kingston, NY.
