Dr. Denise McGrade, DDS, PC
Denise Freeman McGrade received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Baylor College of Dentistry in 1991.  She received advanced experience and training through a general practice residency at the Dallas Veterans Administration Medical Center, with rotations in anesthesia and oral surgery.  After three years as an associate, she established her private practice in Plano in 1994.  She has continued to pursue advanced education in areas identified as important to her patients.  At our office we emphasize the importance of prevention, but services include fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures, implants, and root canals.  Dr. McGrade has advanced training in several cosmetic areas including bleaching (both in office and home), Porcelain Veneers, and Bonding.  Dr. McGrade’s office is up to date with the newest and most advanced high tech equipment, both dental and office.
Dr. McGrade was born in Dallas, but grew up in Louisiana, New York, Wyoming, and …Illinois.  She graduated high school in Glenn Ellen, IL. but returned to Dallas for college.  She received her B.S. degree from the University of Texas at Dallas, and worked in cancer research at the University Of Texas Southwestern School Of Medicine before entering dental school.  She married Stephen Joseph McGrade, Jr., of Port Washington, N.Y. in 1984.  They have two children, Patrick and Sarah.
Since her own children and many of their friends are athletes, Dr. McGrade has developed a special interest in protecting children’s teeth while they participate in sports.  She is a member of the Academy of Sports Dentistry, and supports several local recreation teams.  Last year she created custom mouth guards for the Wakeland High School Wolverines.  Ask her advice and assistance to make sure your young sports stars keep their beautiful smiles.
