---

The Aspen Group announced on Sept. 20 the opening of its 1,000th Aspen Dental office nationwide, marking a significant milestone in the brand's nearly 25-year history.

The independent doctors and support teams across the Aspen Dental network now serve more than 30,000 patients each day in 43 states, bringing quality, affordable, accessible care to underserved areas, according to a news release.

The Aspen Dental model was designed by creating differentiated consumer experiences that break down barriers to care and make access easier for patients, while at the same time providing support for practitioners and their teams so they can focus on what they do best - provide the best possible care to every patient.

Reaching 1,000 offices is a proud moment for us, said Bob Fontana, founder, chairman and CEO of TAG-The Aspen Group. “Along the way, we've gotten really good at a lot of things - from building great customer experiences to marketing, technology, real estate, operations, training, mentoring and learning and development,” he said.

The 1,000th office, owned and led by Dr. Ashley Brier, DMD, will serve the Norridge, Ill. community and is located at 4460 N Harlem Ave, Norridge, IL 60706.
