Hello, Im Dr. Cox. My passion for dentistry began when I invested in orthodontics for myself as a young adult. The confidence I gained by straightening and whitening my teeth was life-changing. I love providing my patients with whatever they need in order to smile without hesitation! The Treasure Valley has been my home since 1996 but I have lived in and around Idaho my whole life. My wife, 3 daughters and I enjoy spending our free time exploring our local mountains, desert, and rivers (unless of course someone has a soccer game, lacrosse match, or track meet!)
Dr. Cox received his undergraduate degree from the University of Idaho. He then went on to earn his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Creighton University in Omaha, NE. In 2004, Dr. Cox performed several smile makeovers as a part of the Major Makeovers team and was featured on the Treasure Valleys 6 On Your Side News. He has over 300 hours of continuing education credits including two years of advanced training with Progressive Orthodontic Seminars.
Hi, Im Dr. Coxs wife. I am very proud of the type of dentistry we provide at BridgeTower Dental. Promoting my husbands passion for patient care and the team with whom he works is both fun and personally fulfilling. It is easy to be passionate about dentistry when this team is dedicated to being the best they can be. In fact, it is almost as rewarding as being a mom to our three daughters, hiking with my Summit Sisters group, and white water rafting our Idaho rivers with our crazy family!

She also has experience working as a financial planner, stockbroker, pharmaceutical representative and marketing director for a local hospice PBM.
I was born and raised here in the Treasure Valley and love spending time with my husband, son and dogs. We enjoy hiking, whitewater rafting, and sitting around a campfire in the beautiful Idaho mountains. Being a dental hygienist fulfills my desire to educate patients, see first hand how a smile can impact someones life for the better and develop meaningful relationships. I enjoy attending education courses each year to be current and knowledgeable in the advancements in dentistry.

I have enjoyed being part of the Bridgetower Dental Team since 2004! What I love about Bridgetower Dental is the compassion and excellent care we as a team deliver to our patients. My favorite part about my job is developing meaningful relationships with patients and watching their families grow. Assisting Dr. Cox chairside and treating patients isnt my only duty, I also help behind the scenes with bookkeeping and some administrative duties. I enjoy being active and keeping busy, playing in the outdoors, or enjoying free time with my Labradors.

Hi, Im Ivy. With over 17 years of experience in the dental field, I love being able to help our patients with just about anything they might need! I find fulfillment in clarifying the details of treatment plans and creating affordable financial arrangements. When I am not working, my husband and I are usually camping, fishing, hunting, riding four wheelers, and searching for unique rocks.
