Elizabeth Beard, DDS, FAGD is a Lubbock native and a proud Red Raider!
Dr. Beard graduated from Lubbock High in 1999 and obtained a bachelors degree in Cell and Molecular Biology from Texas Tech University in 2003.
Dr. Beard completed her Doctorate of Dental Surgery at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio in 2007.
She continued her dental education with a hospital based General Practice Residency at University Hospital in San Antonio. During residency she acquired extensive training and experience in the surgical removal of teeth, placement and restoration of dental implants, IV conscious sedation, and advanced cosmetic and restorative procedures.
In 2014 Dr. Beard shifted her focus to a more integrative approach to dentistry and opened Renew Dental to bring this treatment philosophy to West Texas.
Dr. Beard completed her Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine from American College of Integrative Medicine and Dentistry in 2016. She also holds a fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry, an honor that recognizes a commitment to post-doctoral continuing dental education.
Dr. Beard began her studies in airway health and dental sleep medicine in 2018. She obtained her Diplomate status in the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine in 2023. She opened Renew Sleep in 2023.
Dr. Beard is fiercely passionate about oral and airway health and how that integrates into the body’s overall health. Helping patients get well and stay well is what keeps Dr. Beard going!
When she is not in the office treating patients or out of town continuing her education, you can find Dr. Beard wondering around Tech Terrace walking her dog Birdie and listening to her favorite podcasts. She can also be found at home trying new recipes with her daughter Sloan, contemplating the Star Wars and Marvel dynasties with her son Cannon, or keeping up with the automotive industry with her husband Derek.
Any chance she gets, she is traveling with her family, her best friend, or exploring on her own, as long as she is seeing the world!
