Meet The Team

Having graduated from the University of Oklahoma’s College of Dentistry with her Bachelor of Science degree in 1999, Ashley has been an important part of our dental family since 2001. Practicing chairside with patients was her primary role for many years; however, after having her fourth baby boy a few years ago, she decided to move on to more of a part time position, taking on the responsibility of promoting our practice, organizing meetings, and managing anything she can in order to help out. She loves promoting the practice and says that “it is rewarding and exciting to promote something I am passionate about and I am passionate about teeth, smiles and relationships. We have a phenomenal team and it is a joy to promote their good works. Watching this practice transition and grow over the past several years has been exciting and I look forward to what the future holds.”

Ashley still practices dental hygiene from time to time and looks forward to doing so more in the years ahead. She continues to stay up to date with new techniques and dental technology, attending above and beyond the required 30 hours of CE every three years. She enjoys learning from others and wants to always be able to implement change because she enjoys it so much!

Ashley and her husband, Dr. Jeffrey Danner, have been married for 21 years. Yes, it’s true – they met while she was a first year Dental Hygiene student and he was a first year Dental Student! They have been blessed with four wonderful boys who are currently ages 19, 16, 11, and 9. Their oldest son is currently attending the University of Oklahoma. When asked if she would try for a girl, she says, “No, I think being a boy mom is pretty awesome!” When she’s not working, Ashley enjoys running, yoga, shopping, and doing nothing if the opportunity arises!!
