Walden Dental NY is a general, restorative and implant dental practice at 57 Main St in Walden — about 5 miles from Montgomery, or roughly 7 minutes north on NY-208. Montgomery is the closest town we serve: for most of the village we are simply the nearest full-service dental practice. We treat teens and adults, hold same-day appointments every weekday for dental emergencies, and welcome new patients.

Your nearest dental practice
Five miles down NY-208 makes a real practical difference. A cleaning or checkup costs you a quarter of an hour of driving for the round trip. Treatment that takes more than one visit — an implant, a crown, a root canal and its follow-up — does not mean planning half a day around each appointment. And if something goes wrong after a procedure, you are close enough to be seen again quickly rather than waiting it out.
Emergency dentist for Montgomery, NY
We keep same-day appointments open every weekday for dental emergencies — a bad toothache, a broken or knocked-out tooth, facial swelling, or a lost filling or crown. Call (845) 713-4822 first. We see emergencies by appointment rather than as walk-ins, so even from seven minutes away, phoning ahead is what gets you seen quickly.
While you are on the way:
- Knocked-out tooth: hold it by the crown, not the root. Put it back in the socket if you can, or keep it in milk. Being this close genuinely helps — a tooth replaced within the hour has the best chance.
- Swelling or fever: tell us when you call. Facial swelling needs same-day attention.
- Broken tooth: rinse with warm water and bring any pieces with you.
- Pain: over-the-counter pain relief is fine. Don’t hold aspirin against the gum.
Outside our hours, the nearest 24-hour emergency room is Garnet Health Medical Center, 707 E Main St, Middletown. More on what counts as urgent: dental emergencies and chipped or broken teeth.
Dental implants for Montgomery patients
Implants are the second most common reason people find us from Montgomery. We handle the whole course of treatment in the Walden office: planning and imaging, any extraction that is needed, bone grafting where the jaw needs building up first, placing the implant, and fitting the final crown, bridge or implant-supported denture. You are not sent to one practice for the surgery and another for the restoration.
Dr. Sayeed has performed more than 4,000 root canals, and much implant work begins as a tooth that could not be saved. If you are weighing an implant against a bridge or a denture, we will tell you which suits your case and what each costs before anything starts. More on dental implants.
What Montgomery patients come to us for
- Cleanings, checkups and fillings.
- Dental implants, single teeth through to full-arch replacement.
- Crowns and bridges for cracked, worn or missing teeth.
- Root canals and tooth extractions.
- Dentures, full and partial, including repairs.
- Veneers, whitening and bonding.
- Gum disease treatment and prevention.

Insurance, Medicaid and payment
We accept Aetna PPO, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, EmblemHealth PPO, Fidelis Care, UnitedHealthcare PPO, Metrodent and Metrodent Premier, DentaQuest plans, CSEA dental plans, and Medicaid plans administered by DentaQuest. Coverage depends on your plan, so our team checks your benefits before treatment starts and tells you what you will owe.
We also take all major credit and debit cards, HSA and FSA cards, and CareCredit or Cherry financing for treatment that insurance doesn’t cover.
What we don’t offer
- Young children. We treat teens and adults. Younger children are better served by a pediatric dentist.
- Botox and facial aesthetics. We are a dental practice only.
- Evening and weekend visits. We’re open Monday to Friday, 8 AM–5 PM, with lunch from 1 to 2.
Your first visit from Montgomery
Your first appointment covers an exam, any X-rays we need, and a written plan with the cost of each step before treatment starts. Bring your insurance card, a list of medications, and any recent X-rays from a previous dentist — we can request them for you. You can fill in the patient forms beforehand, and our first appointment checklist explains what to expect.
