Meet Our Dental Team – Denton, TX
Compassionate Professionals Dedicated to Dental Patient Satisfaction

Many of our dental team members have been with us for decades, and we couldn’t be happier with the quality of care provided. Serving dentistry patients of all ages, we can help the youngest smiles prepare for brighter futures while also delivering support to mature smiles that need extra care.

Andrea, Registered Dental Assistant
Andrea has been assisting for more than 25 years now, having graduated from North Central Texas College and Grayson County College. She has been with Dr. Dunson for nearly her entire career, starting in 1998. They have grown together, and she has learned so much from him. That’s why she calls the dental office her home away from home.
Outside the dental office, Andrea has a husband, two children, a dog, and a fish. While her family keeps her busy, they still manage to go to the pool or lake each summer. Some of her other hobbies include volunteering at her daughter’s school, shopping with friends, and going on weekend getaways.

She started working in Cleburne, TX, and recently moved to Little Elm with her husband and daughter. She joined our team in 2019 and felt at home right from the start. Her main goals in the dental office are to help educate patients and help them feel comfortable and confident about their smiles.
When she isn’t at work, she enjoys spending time with family, being outdoors, and utilizing her artistic skills whether it's refinishing furniture, landscaping, or bringing antiques back to life! Here’s something you might not know about her: she loves all kinds of music. That’s why her husband calls her a human jukebox!
