Meet Dr. Tori Irvine
I guess I loved, I loved science in school and math, and I loved working and coaching kids. And so somebody in my family said, hey, you should be a dentist. And so I worked with my dentist and thought, OK, this is good.
I’ll go to dental school. And then I actually really went to dental school. I went to UNC Chapel Hill for undergrad.
I ran for Chapel Hill, actually, and got the Scholar Athlete Award. And then I graduated as a member of Phi Beta Kappa. And then I went to UNC School of Dentistry, also in Chapel Hill, and graduated with honors.
For a couple of years, I did a whole series of classes for placing implants and bone grafting. I also have taken an extensive number of classes for Invisalign, just to improve the outcome, more efficient outcome, using the Invisalign technology. I also took a series of, a mini residency for the Dawson, which is a type of full mouth rehabilitation class, which lasted over a year and a half.
Because things have changed so fast in dentistry, it’s good to keep updated and keep getting the new technology and everything, too. The most rewarding thing about being a dentist is helping somebody who has a painful tooth or a broken tooth, or somebody who does not like their smile. And because we were able to improve their smile, they have more confidence and smile more.

I’ve been going to this office for almost 15 years. In the past few years I’ve had the best dental hygienist. Sara is fantastic, takes her time and listens to my concerns. She goes out of her way to be helpful. It’s a joy to see her every 6 months.

All of the staff at Providence Dentistry including Autumn and Heidi at reception were friendly and welcoming. Emily, my dental hygienist, was very thorough and gentle. She explained what she was doing and put me at ease. Dr. Felden, the dentist, also took time to talk with me. Sam, the technician who took my scan for a retainer, explained the procedure well. I would highly recommend Providence Dentistry.

I wrote the following about a year ago and now I’m 89. I really can’t improve on what I wrote, unless I put it in BOLD, CAPS, AND UNDERLINED SCRIPT. This time, Dr. Irvine(I call her Dr Beauty!) actually driled through an implant to tighten it(then patched it flawlessly)and I didn’t even have novocane and felt nothing!!!! (now for last years’ post): She and her staff are the most friendly, knowledgeable, caring, and PAIN FREE of any dentists I’ve been to in my 88 years! I actually look forward to an enjoyable time when I go-HA!!! It’s like going to a party, with all the laughs and lovely faces around me!!! Joe Parascand

Dr. Irvine fixed a busted crown for me today and did her usual excellent job, i.e. no pain, well-explained, reasonable terms, with help from her courteous and always welcoming team (today it was Marciola; great job!). My wife and I feel lucky to have Dr. Irvine’s group available to us. Dr. Moran has to be one the best dentists in the area. She’s thorough, knowledgeable, technically savvy and friendly. My wife and I have relied on her for some 15 years now. She and Dr. Irvine (also very talented) have built a solid, customer-focused team. I would definitely recommend either dentist for your personal care.

Best practice in the area. The staff is well-educated and generous with their knowledge. Having an advocate for my teeth and gums was not on my bingo card for 2025, but here we are. Dr. Irvine is the absolute best dentist and Grace, the hygenist, is as amazing as the song says she is 😉. I couldn’t recommend a better office or group of people, from front desk to checkout, everyone is a rockstar!
P. B. (Verified Patient)

Just returned from my first visit. It was great!! Highly professional and very friendly at every turn. Jeri, who cleaned my teeth, did an exceptional job. Really liked my previous dentist (of over 30 years), but he retired and prices had been going up quickly. Definitely recommend these folks. Just went today for my second cleaning. As before, it was a great experience. Jerilyn is amazing! Whatsherface the dentist too. The technology these folks have is amazing. If you don’t have a fantastic dentist, go to Providence Dentistry. 03/15/22 appointment. Again, a very pleasant experience at “The Dentist.” Sounds like an oxymoron, but it’s really true.

Trusted Providence Dentistry for over 5 years and have the utmost confidence in their professionalism and competence. Today Mauri did a great and thorough cleaning with a few X-rays. Dr. Irvine came in, checked me out and except for one problem tooth all is well. We trust and appreciate Providence Dentistry and the entire staff.

Visited just a few days ago to launch an Implant, and benefitted from a concise, yet thorough, explanation of what the process involves from Dr. Irvine’s personable and clearly competent Assistant, Jackie. I am impressed by the innovative utilization of technology and engineering in the preparation for, construction of and manner of firmly securing the implant. The amount of thought, time and planning involved in this important procedure, plus the obvious skill and caring of Dr. Irvine and her Team have, once again, occasioned my “Thank You” to the source of my initial referral to the practice!
A. L. (Verified Patient)

K. R. (Verified Patient)
