Dr. Fayyad grew up in Michigan. He graduated from Dexter High School (Go Dreadnaught), attended and graduated from Michigan State University (Go Green), and spent time volunteering and working at the University of Michigan (Go Blue).  

Dr. Fayyad completed his dental degree at Case School Of Dental Medicine in Cleveland, Ohio, and followed it with a one-year residency training program, AEGD, at the University of Pacific in San Francisco, California. In the years following, he worked in private offices, owned his own dental office, held different positions in non-profit organizations, and had dental hospital experience at the University of the Pacific.
