Joshua Opperman, DMD

Joshua R. Opperman, DMD, is a family dentist serving patients in the Hollywood District of Northeast Portland. He is honored to be the dentist of choice for many families and enjoys getting to know his patients as they grow and thrive. Education has always played a central role in Dr. Opperman’s life. A Portland native, he chose to remain in the area to complete his dental training at OHSU School of Dentistry. Now in practice for more than a decade, Dr. Opperman continues to pursue additional educational opportunities to stay abreast of the latest developments in dentistry technology and techniques. Patient education is also a passion of Dr. Opperman’s. He views his role as a partner in the dental health of each patient and is committed to educating those in his care on how to best maintain a healthy smile. Whether that’s giving advice on the best foods to support healthy teeth, the importance of proper oral hygiene, or simply helping kids “brush up” on their brushing techniques, Dr. Opperman always takes the time to educate and empower his patients.   Personalized care is a cornerstone of Dr. Opperman’s practice. No two people share the exact same set of dental needs. That’s why he approaches each patient as a distinct individual with needs and treatment goals that shift over time. That attention to detail is why so many in the Portland area wouldn’t consider entrusting their oral health to any other practitioner. Dr. Opperman has also recruited an excellent support team. From the time you schedule your appointment through your cleanings, exams, treatment, and follow-up care, you’ll be in good hands. The hygienists and administrative staff all share Dr. Opperman’s commitment to personalized dental care in a modern state-of-the-art facility. When he’s not working with patients you’ll find Dr. Opperman spending time with his wife and son. The family stays active, getting out and enjoying the things that make Portland such an amazing place to live. Running, biking, music, snowboarding, and coaching his son’s soccer team are just some of the things that bring balance and fulfillment to Dr. Opperman’s life. If you’re looking for a dentist who offers a combination of skill, training, and a personable nature, schedule a time to come and sit down with Dr. Opperman to discuss your needs. Once you learn more about his unique approach to dental health and care, you may just become the latest member of the practice family.
