Northern Dental Access Center in Bemidji is partially open to serve people who need emergency dental care. Many dental procedures are currently unallowable, due to restrictions and guidance from the Minnesota Board of Dentistry and the Office of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Our Halstad clinic is closed until further notice. Any patients experiencing a dental emergency will be directed to the Bemidji location.

We continue to comply with state and local recommendations on social distancing, rigorous infection control measures and enhanced Personal Protection Equipment for our staff.
We are sad that the bulk of our staff remain on furlough, but there is a team in place (Monday through Thursdays, 9am – 3pm) to respond to telephone inquiries and make appointments for immediate care.

We are also reaching out to patients who have appointments scheduled for May and June. Please understand that we may have to cancel or postpone scheduled procedures until certain restrictions are lifted by the Board of Dentistry, and until our provider team is fully operational.
During this difficult time, we appreciate your patience and understanding.
