SYRACUSE, N.Y., Sept. 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Aspen Dental office in Mount Pleasant, Michigan is celebrating an exciting win from Central Michigan Life's 2012 Best of Central Michigan People's Choice Awards, where local readers have awarded the practice as the first place winner in the "Best Dentist/Orthodontist" category. More than 1,200 readers voted in the poll.

"We are thrilled to be named Best Dentist in Mount Pleasant," said lead dentist Dr. Alifiya Barodawalla. "Our team is committed to the patients who visit our office, and we look forward to continuing to provide access to high quality, affordable dental care to the Mount Pleasant community."

Located in the Union Shoppes at 4459 E. Blue Grass Road, Suite D, the practice provides dental services that range from dentures and preventive care to general dentistry and restoration.

To make an appointment, patients can call (989) 546-4568 or 800-ASPEN DENTAL (800-277-3633), or visit www.aspendental.com.

In addition to offering patients the choice of seven styles of Aspen Dental's exclusive ComfiDents^® brand full and partial dentures, Aspen Dental provides 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.

The office also works to provide the following:

• Personalized treatment. Quick-fix solutions don't solve larger or chronic oral health problems. That's why Aspen Dental takes a comprehensive approach to dental care. Following the initial exam and X-rays, each patient receives a customized treatment plan designed by the dentist with long-term oral and overall health in mind.

• Wide range of flexible payment options. Cost shouldn't prevent patients from getting the dental care they deserve. That's why Aspen Dental offers competitive fees, special promotions and 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.

• Convenient hours and location. The office is 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.

• Variety of options for denture patients. ComfiDents^® full and partial dentures come in eight styles, giving patients more options than are available at traditional dental practices. Regardless of the denture selected, each is custom-crafted, and the dentist works with every patient to ensure proper fit and comfort. As an added convenience, Aspen Dental has its own on-site denture laboratory, which helps facilitate quick turnaround for denture repairs, relines or adjustments. Free denture consultations are available for all denture patients.
