Meet Dr. Brad Jennings

THE DOCTOR BEHIND THE SMILE

Dr. Brad Jennings is the rock ‘n’ roll orthodontist behind Jennings Orthodontics, bringing expert care, musical flair, and a smile-first spirit to the practice. His love for rock music shows up throughout the office, creating an experience that feels memorable from the moment patients walk in.

When he is not helping patients move toward healthier, more confident smiles, Dr. Jennings can often be found playing guitar, building guitars, or enjoying time with his pugs. At Jennings Orthodontics, his personality helps set the tone for care that feels polished, welcoming, and ready to rock.

The Pugs Behind the Comfort

MEET THE THERAPY PUGS AT JENNINGS ORTHODONTICS

Some team members bring comfort with a warm smile, and some bring it with a tiny snore during an appointment. Millie and Sammie help make visits at Jennings Orthodontics feel a little softer, sillier, and more memorable for patients who love a friendly pug moment.

Millie, Little Rockstar

Millie is one of the office therapy pugs, and her favorite way to support patients is by settling in for a cozy nap during appointments. She loves making new friends, playing with patients, showing off her outfits, and proving that orthodontic visits can come with a little extra pug-powered comfort.

Patients may see Millie in the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays, when she is officially on duty and ready for attention. Ask the front desk for a treat, and Millie may be happy to show off a few tricks before heading back to her very important beauty sleep.

Sammie, Littlest Rockstar

Sammie is Millie’s younger sister and the littlest therapy pug in training at Jennings Orthodontics. She visits the office on occasion as she learns the ropes, usually bringing plenty of playful energy before following Millie’s lead with a well-earned nap.

She is still building her rockstar skill set, which makes every trick attempt part of the fun. Patients can ask the front desk for a treat and help Sammie practice, cheer her on, and enjoy one more reason a visit can feel a little brighter.
