Director's Message
Dr. Morrison saw a need for outstanding dental assisting training opportunities in the Dallas area, and designed a program that is integrated with the everyday dental care provided at Forney Family Dentistry. The Elite Dental Assisting School can help you become a valuable member of a dental team.
“I decided to open a dental assisting school several years ago for a couple of reasons. I wanted to make a difference in my profession that was not limited to smiles on patients. I wanted to make a difference in my team, and to help others further their careers. After mentoring several dental health professionals, including dentists, dental hygienists, and dental assistants, I felt motivated to intervene at the beginning of that path. Becoming a highly skilled and trained dental assistant is limited by the type of instruction and inspiration you receive through your learning process. I love to teach, love to motivate, inspire, and cultivate learning in others. Give me someone who is passionate about wanting to help others, and I will teach them everything I know. I love to watch their passion grow with knowledge that is crafted into skills they will use throughout their career forever.”
