GALESBURG, Ill., July 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Aspen Dental is proud to announce that Dr. Ryan Blatchley has joined Aspen Dental in the Galesburg location at 2506 Volunteer Drive. The practice opened in December 2016 and provides dental services ranging from dentures and preventative care to general dentistry and restoration.

Originally from California, Dr. Blatchley started his dental education in Guadalajara, Mexico and completed his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the University of California, San Francisco.

"Dentistry is my passion and the most gratifying moment is seeing a patient's confidence flourish after receiving care – their posture changes and their smile becomes more noticeable," said Dr. Blatchley. "Our area struggles with a shortage of local dental professionals and I hope to break down barriers to better care, better smiles and better lives for the Galesburg community."

The Galesburg office, located in Knox County, is one of 26 Aspen Dental practices in Illinois, a state where 81 of 102, including Knox, counties are designated as dental health professional shortage areas by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The Galesburg Aspen Dental office offers patient-friendly programs and services that make it easier for patients to get the dental care they need, including:

Personalized treatment and friendly service. Each patient receives a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plan designed by the dentist with long-term oral and overall health in mind. Available services include hygiene, treatment of periodontal (gum) disease, extractions, fillings, oral surgery, whitening, and crown and bridge work.
Affordable dental care. Aspen Dental practices are committed to keeping prices low so that patients can get the care they need. The Galesburg practice works with all insurance providers and handles the paperwork to save patients time and hassle, and offer free new-patient exams and X-rays for patients without dental insurance. The practice also offers clear, detailed estimates on the cost of treatment to give patients peace of mind.
On-site denture lab and a Denture Money Back Guarantee - The practice is equipped with an on-site denture laboratory, which helps facilitate quick turnaround for denture repairs, relines or adjustments. The practice will offer seven styles of full and partial dentures so patients can be reassured that Dr. Blatchley and his team will go above and beyond to ensure proper fit and comfort of their custom-crafted dentures. 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 dentures when patients return them within 90 days. The practice repairs all dentures, not just those purchased at Aspen Dental, after evaluation by the doctor.
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.

To make an appointment, patients can call (309) 341-4630 or 800-ASPEN DENTAL (800-277-3633), or visit www.aspendental.com. And when a new patient makes an appointment online now through Veterans Day, Aspen Dental will show its continued commitment to veterans by donating $1 to Got Your 6* following the visit (up to a maximum of $65,000). Appointments must be honored by Nov. 11, 2017. Donations are limited to $1 per person who attends their appointment.
