My dedicated team and I regularly attend seminars such as the Damon Forum and the Invisalign Ortho Summit. By providing state-of-the-art orthodontic appliances, I can give my patients a broad, beautiful smile with little discomfort in the quickest possible treatment time.
In addition to staying up to date with continuing education, I am also an active member of several professional organizations, which enable me to be involved with the greater dental and orthodontic communities.
I am honored to have been published in the American Journal of Orthodontics and chosen as a Top Dentist in Tampa Bay Magazine. Invisalign has recognized our office as among the Top 1% of Invisalign Premier Elite Providers in the country! This allows me to offer this amazingly effective and esthetic option to my patients at no additional cost!
I am a native of Baltimore, Maryland, and have called St. Petersburg my home for over 40 years. My wife Tammy and I have two children, Brandon and Haley, and three dogs named Oreo, Lucy and Amber. When I have free time, I enjoy stand-up paddleboarding with my wife Tammy, watching my daughter dance, and going fishing with my son.
“Orthodontics is the greatest profession in the world. I couldn’t imagine doing anything else! I use my education and hands-on training to the best of my abilities to give patients the best results possible. I do whatever it takes to make my patients completely happy with their treatment, and I always strive to achieve perfection.”
Continuing education is the best way I can ensure my patients receive the most effective care. I keep up to date on the newest technologies, including Invisalign, Damon Smile, and Insignia, throughout the year. I am also a member of several professional associations that gives me the chance to share ideas with other dental and orthodontic professionals.
During my years in dental and orthodontic school, I was honored to receive numerous awards, including admission into the Phi Delta Honor Society, the Delphi Society, and the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Honor Society. I was also awarded the Outstanding Leadership and Academic Excellence Award by the American Association of Women Dentists.
I am a native of St. Petersburg, and have lived in Seminole since 2006. My husband Gabriel and I have two children, George and Dominique. When Im not in the office, I can be found spending time with my family and traveling.

We having been seeing Dr Insoft and Dr Hurst for the past 7-8 years dating back to our oldest daughter. From the very beginning EVERYONE at the office is genuine, caring, and communicative. From start to finish they make the whole process seamless and easy. They were always able to work around our schedule and provide the best care and beautiful smiles!

Vacationing Canadians ran into a broken brace and irritating wire poking my son's mouth. We showed up to Insoft & Hurst Orthodontics looking for help and they promptly welcomed us in and helped my son immediately. They cut the exposing wire and even gave us free wax. My son said it's like 100% better! We cannot thank this office's owner and employees enough! You saved our vacation and my son's mouth! Highly recommend anyone including vacationers needing emergent help to contact this office! We are so grateful!

Very shady practice. Dr. Insoft only cares about money. I had to get revision and he charged me so much money and laughed when I told him it was too much for me.

Everyone at Insoft & Hurst is wonderful! Very professional, friendly, supportive & efficient. I love that I don't have to wait more than 20 minutes or so for them to get my child in & out of each appointment. My son had his braces on for 18 months just like they expected he would. My daughter is next up and she is excited! I highly recommend this practice.

Drs. Hurst and Insoft are very caring and relatable. They take time to explain the treatment options and recommendations. I always feel they have our best interest in mind and strive to give us the best treatment options possible. I recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable orthodontist.

We are beyond satisfied with our experience here at Insoft & Hurst. Quality care is evident in all aspects of service we have received so far. Smiles are so important and we couldn't be more thrilled to know our daughter is going to finish her orthodontic care with a reliable, quality team of providers. We thank you so much for allowing us to join your practice. The Pridemore Family
