Upon graduation from dental school, Dr. Cooper moved to the great state of Texas and began practicing in the Frisco and Denton area.

Treatment Philosophy
Dr. Cooper’s care philosophy is to teach patients how to care for their oral health in a comprehensive way. Dr. Cooper wants to take the dread out of dental appointments by not lecturing her patients on what they haven't done, but educating her patients on how they can do more. Dr. Cooper realizes sugar is a part of most people's diets, so her goal is to help her patients minimize exposure of sugar on their enamel. Dr. Cooper and her staff are dedicated to making dental care a lifestyle, not something her patients tend to twice a year.
