Meet the Team

Dr. Amanda Tran was born and raised in Arlington, TX. She graduated Magna Cum Laude from The University of Texas at Arlington with a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology and continued to earn her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree from Midwestern University in Arizona. Staying active in her profession is a priority for Dr. Tran, who regularly participates in continuing education courses about the latest advancements in dentistry to ensure she can provide the highest quality care.

Dr. Tran loves being a dentist because she finds joy combining engineering and artistry into something physical that improves the overall health and wellness of the community.

Outside the office, Dr. Tran finds solace in outdoor activities such as hiking among the Redwood trees and snowboarding. Her adventures are shared with her husband and their identical twin daughters. Dr. Tran's dedication to her family is a reflection of her caring and nurturing nature, which extends seamlessly into her professional life as she strives to create happier, healthier smiles.

Dr. Hayden Keys was born and raised in Plano, Texas where he attended Plano West Senior High School. When choosing a career, he desired a profession where he could help people achieve their health goals both mentally and physically. After shadowing local dentists, including Dr. McGrade, he found out that dentistry was a perfect profession for doing just that. He began to pursue a career in dentistry and attended Texas State University where he graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Biology.
 
Dr. Keys received his Doctorate of Dental Surgery from UT Health San Antonio School of Dentistry. While in school, he received a world class education covering all aspects of general dentistry including crowns, cosmetic dentistry, esthetic fillings and much more. His favorite part of dental school was being able to help patients achieve a healthier version of themselves whether it meant getting them out of pain or improving their self-confidence by transforming their smile.

Outside of dentistry, Dr. Keys enjoys many hobbies including playing sand volleyball, going to concerts, playing board games with friends, and watching sports or Survivor on TV. Hayden’s wife, Kendall, is a math teacher and soccer coach at Lone Star High School in Frisco and also grew up in the area. Getting to practice a few minutes away from where he grew up is a dream come true for Dr. Keys and he is grateful for the opportunity to serve the community he loves through dentistry. 

I have been in the dental field since 1994 and have worked with Dr. McGrade since 2006. The thing I like most about working with Dr. McGrade is her passion for helping others through her mission trips to Honduras and her dedication to her practice. 

I love the field of dentistry, getting to know our patients, and helping them with their dental needs. I am originally from Paris, Texas but have lived in Frisco since 1996. I have two beautiful children and a wonderful husband that I enjoy spending my free time with.

I graduated from hygiene school in 2006 and have been employed with Dr. McGrade since 2007. My duties are to maintain oral health, provide preventive care, and educate our patients about their overall oral hygiene. I enjoy working with Dr. McGrade because she creates a family-oriented environment for us to work in. I love providing hygiene because of the relationships I build with my patients. 

I am originally from Bossier City, Louisiana, but have lived in Plano for six years. I enjoy spending my free time with my Great Dane Rufus and visiting my family and friends.

I am a 1991 graduate of the Hygiene School at Baylor University in Dallas and have been with Dr. McGrade since she opened her practice in 1995. My duties are to maintain oral health, provide preventive care, and educate our patients about their overall oral hygiene. Dr. McGrade’s fun personality is why I have enjoyed working with her all these years.
