Dr. Lori Gossett, DDS, MSD

Orthodontist

Dr. Lori Gossett is thrilled to return to Southeast New Mexico to serve the community she proudly calls home. Raised in Hagerman, NM, Dr. Gossett’s journey in orthodontics has come full circle. She is honored to now practice alongside Dr. Taylor, who treated her as a teenager.

Dr. Gossett’s own orthodontic experience with Dr. Taylor was truly life-changing and played a pivotal role in inspiring her to pursue a career in orthodontics. Seeing firsthand the confidence and impact that a beautiful, healthy smile can create motivated her to follow in his footsteps. Today, she is grateful for the opportunity to help create those same transformative experiences for patients while working alongside Dr. Taylor.

Dr. Gossett earned her Bachelor of Arts in Interpersonal Communication from the University of New Mexico in 2018 where she graduated Summa Cum Laude. She then completed her dental education at Texas A&M College of Dentistry in Dallas, TX, where she earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 2023 and was inducted into Omicron Kappa Upsilon (OKU), the national dental honor society. She went on to complete her orthodontic specialty training and earn a Master of Science in Orthodontics from Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, OR, graduating in 2025.

When she’s not in the office, Dr. Gossett enjoys spending time with her wonderful fiancé, Dillon, and their German Shepherd, Cooper. In her free time, Dr. Gossett loves playing board games, creating fun nail designs, hiking, and spending quality time with family and friends.

Dr. Gossett is deeply honored to serve the families of Roswell and the greater Southeast New Mexico area. She is committed to building meaningful, lasting relationships with each patient by ensuring they feel heard, cared for, and fully informed about their orthodontic health. Dr. Gossett approaches every patient with the same compassion and attention she would offer her own family, and she looks forward to helping patients achieve confident, healthy smiles.
