Meet Dr. Joy Arend

"Hi, I’m Dr. Joy Arend, and I’m a general dentist in East Portland. I’ve been working with Beacon Oral Surgery for the past ten years. I send a lot of my patients to Dr. Lieblick and Dr. Rehrer. They’re excellent oral surgeons, and what I really like about them is that they’re really down to earth, but they’re going to make sure that their care is the best you can get anywhere. I refer my patients to Dr. Lieblick and Rehrer because I don’t place implants myself surgically, but I think it’s very important to have a team approach. When I send my patients to Beacon, I know that they’re going to be placed really, really well. It has to be really good quality, and when I send them here, I know they’re going to get the best quality so that I can actually restore that implant back in my practice when the patient comes back to me. We have a lot of our patients that need to have their wisdom teeth or third molars extracted, and they’re really nervous about that. I think it’s a really good place to send them to a board-certified oral surgeon. We really love Beacon because we know that they’re going to take the very best care possible with my patients. We don’t refer to anyone but them. If I was going to send my family or friends to an oral surgeon, it’d definitely be Beacon Oral Surgery because they really are great!"
