Meet

Dr. Joseph Youssef, DDS, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon in Torrance, CA

Meet Dr. Joseph Youssef, Nuvia’s highly-skilled oral & maxillofacial surgeons in the Torrance office.

About

Dr. Joseph Youssef, DDS

Dr. Youssef’s desire to become a dentist began in the 5th grade. He attended dental school at UC San Francisco. It was during this time that he realized he was passionate about oral surgery.

He did an internship at Montefiore Medical Center in New York where he discovered the satisfaction that came from helping people get their teeth back, especially after years of struggling with them.

Now as an oral surgeon in Torrance, he gets to do what he loves every day.

Why Nuvia

Dr. Youssef had extensive experience with dental implants during his residency. Having seen how the traditional process leaves patients wearing temporary teeth for what may be 10+ months, he was eager to be part of Nuvia’s process where patients were getting their permanent teeth in 24 hours.

Outside of the Clinic

When he isn’t working, Dr. Youssef loves watching and playing basketball. His favorite place to play is by the beach, either with friends or solo.
