Have you recently found out that your longtime dentist has retired or closed their office? You’re not alone. Several dental offices in Albuquerque, including the well-respected practice of Dr. John Matte, DDS, have recently closed their doors, leaving loyal patients like you unsure about where to turn next.
Maybe you’ve been with your dentist your whole life. You trusted them, knew their team, and felt like family. Now, you’re looking for a place that feels just as comfortable — a new dental home where you can build another long-term relationship rooted in trust and care.
At High Desert Dental of Albuquerque, we’ve proudly continued the legacy of trusted dentists in our community — including Dr. Gary Ross, Dr. Hunter Mortley, and Dr. Nieto.
Our experienced team and modern facility are ready to welcome you and ensure a smooth transition in your dental care.
