Short answer

Aspen Dental’s membership is its in-office Savings Plan: $49/year for one person plus $29/year for each additional household member. Discounts apply only at participating Aspen offices. Get Aspen’s current office quote for procedure prices — or use a national savings plan if you need a dentist outside that chain.

Aspen membership: what you pay / what’s included

Published membership dollars come from Aspen’s Savings Plan materials in our plan data (verified against carrier materials June 2026). Aspen does not publish a nationwide tooth-by-tooth fee list. Ask the participating office for its regular fee and member fee before you join.

Where Aspen membership falls short

The card does nothing at a non-Aspen dentist. Leave the chain, move away from a participating office, or need a specialist Aspen does not offer, and the membership has no leftover value. A national PPO-like savings plan keeps the discount when you change dentists or cities, as long as the new office participates.

National alternative: Careington (when Aspen isn’t enough)

Careington 500 Series is $129/year for one person plus a $20 one-time fee. It discounts care across One of the largest U.S. dental networks, not one chain. Use it when you want to keep your own dentist, need specialists, or cannot rely on a nearby Aspen office. Confirm the dentist participates before you enroll.
