Dr. Josh Newman

Dr. Josh Newman’s journey into dentistry was a natural progression influenced by a family deeply rooted in oral healthcare. Growing up surrounded by dental professionals—both parents, a grandfather who practiced general dentistry, and several aunts in dental hygiene—Dr. Newman was immersed in the field from an early age. Despite briefly exploring Exercise Science during college, his path crystallized when he began shadowing his father in dental offices. Witnessing the transformative impact of dental care on patients’ lives—whether through restoring smiles or alleviating pain—solidified his passion for dentistry. Dr. Newman was drawn to the technical challenges and the dynamic nature of the profession, including its integration with advancing technologies.

After earning his Bachelor’s degree in Biology: Health Science with a Minor in Public Health from Schreiner University, Dr. Newman pursued his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) at A.T. Still University-Missouri School of Dentistry and Oral Health. Now, he is dedicated to providing high-quality, pain-free dental care to the communities of La Marque, Galveston, and the surrounding areas. Dr. Newman places a strong emphasis on building trusting relationships with his patients, aiming to be a dentist they can rely on and respect.

Dr. Newman leads an active lifestyle outside of dentistry, enjoying sports like pickleball and golf. He recently married his wife, Aisha, a medical resident specializing in family practice. They are both excited to experience the energy of Texas A&M game days and become a part of the local community.
