Joe Lyman, D.D.S. – Family Dentist
Dr. Lyman earned his bachelor’s degree from Arizona State University (but don’t hold that against him…he enjoys Wildcat sports too). After he graduated from ASU, Summa Cum Laude, he was accepted into the Arizona School of Dentistry and Oral Health at A.T. Still University where he earned his Certificate of Public Health with a dental emphasis and became a Doctor of Dental Medicine.
Dr. Lyman is always interested in continued education, locally and nationally. He is committed to knowing the best and most current techniques, treatments and technology available, not only because this is the industry he loves, but because he knows his patients expect unsurpassed care and he expects that of himself too.
After graduating from dental school Dr. Lyman took an internship in Galveston, TX to gain more experience learning the full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery. From there he practiced general dentistry in Texas with more than 50% of his patients being children, which he REALLY enjoyed.
Before attending college, Dr. Lyman spent 2 years in Mississippi as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints but he had lived in Arizona most of his life. When he and his wife (a native Arizonan) learned a dental practice was available in Tucson, Arizona they jumped at the opportunity to move their family back home. In their free time, you can usually find the Lyman’s (including their 4 children) exploring local attractions, attending sporting or cultural events, playing at a park, hiking, swimming or riding bikes.
Over the years, Dr. Lyman has volunteered his time serving in local and foreign communities at “Give Kids a Smile”, “AZ Mission of Mercy”, “Day for Special Smiles” and with “Latin World Ministries”. If you can’t tell, Dr. Lyman loves people and dentistry!
We are very excited for you to meet Dr. Lyman, we know you are going to love him!
