Orthodontists serve as the bridge between patients, the knowledge generated by scientific research, and the policies and practices to implement that knowledge to restore patients beautiful, healthy smiles. As the care recipients, you trust your Cary orthodontist to provide safe, efficient, effective, timely, and patient-centered care. Continuing education is the key to updating ones knowledge in advancing evidence-based orthodontic care and is something to which Dr. Bernstein is committed.

He is active in continuing education seminars and study groups through his memberships with the American Dental Association, American Association of Orthodontics, Southern Association of Orthodontics, and the North Carolina Association of Orthodontics.

When hes not in the office, Dr. Bernstein enjoys spending time with his beautiful fianc, Jordan, his two dogs, Daisy and Ash, and his large extended family13 nieces and nephews and one more on the way!

Giving back to the community is the backbone of Griffin & Bernstein Orthodontics philosophy. Helping and giving back to the less fortunate is what it is all about, and Dr. Bernstein embodies this through his work with Rotary International, Relay for Life, and Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.

The university then hired him as a clinical instructor in the department of surgery and eventually as director of the general practice residency program. The hours were horrendous and with two young daughters and a wife that he sparingly saw, Dr. Griffin reconsidered other avenues for his career. Orthodontics was a perfect fit for the balance of family life and career challenge that he desired. Gaining acceptance to theUniversity of North Carolina-Chapel Hillprogram fulfilled his new start and introduced his family to a state and community they have grown to love.

Dr. Griffin completed his orthodontic residency at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill in 1994, simultaneously earning a Master of Science degree. He has been in private practice in Cary since February of 1995.

Dr. Griffin takes being a continuous student as requisite to his profession. He is ever attending continuing education courses and seminars to maintain and further his knowledge and skill as an orthodontist. He also participates in local study clubs and subscribes to contemporary orthodontic journals, in addition to his membership in many professional organizations:

Dr. Griffin is originally from Springfield, Illinois, and has lived in Cary for the past 23 years. He has been blessed with a loving wife and three grown children, Randi, Kelly, and Josh. He and his family are members of Hope Community Church.

My name is Ashley. I am a proud member of the Griffin & Bernstein Orthodontics team. My favorite part of my job is the connection I make with the patients and their families during their journey from start to finish. There is nothing more rewarding than the joy on a patients face when they see the positive changes in their smile. It is equally satisfying to watch their confidence grow along the way.

Hi, my name is Kenya! I recently relocated to North Carolina from Hampton, Virginia. Ive always had a passion for dentistry, and while having the opportunity to experience multiple specialties in its field, orthodontics instantly stole my heart.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my son, experiencing different adventures with him, sketching home floor plans, and traveling back home to Virginia to spend time with old friends and family.

Hi, my name is Emily. I have been in orthodontics since 2014, and I absolutely love it! Watching my patients grow within themselves because of their beautiful, healthy smiles is so rewarding for me. I truly do love my job!

I live south of Wake County in a very small town with only two stoplights and not a single fast-food restaurant! I love to travel on the weekends, and a spur-of-the-moment trip is my favorite. I spend most of my spare time with my family, friends, and my sweet mini Goldendoodle, Finley.

Hi, my name is Erin. I have worked at Griffin and Bernstein Orthodontics since 2006. I have always enjoyed seeing the great smiles that walk out of our office. Whether our patients are kids or adults, I always enjoy knowing about their lives.

I grew up in Raleigh (Yep, Im a native!) and now live in the Rolesville area with my husband Lee, our two boys, Wyatt and Parker, and our super mutt Stormy. My favorite weekend pastimes are hanging out around the fire pit or visiting the North Carolina coast.
