A Commitment to Exceptional Care
Dr. Cable’s journey into orthodontics started with a fascination for how science and patient care come together to change lives. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience from the University of Pittsburgh before going on to complete his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) at the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine.
From there, his path led him to serve our country in the United States Army, where he completed his advanced orthodontic training at the Tri-Service Orthodontic Residency Program at Wilford Hall Medical Center, located at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. This prestigious residency provided rigorous clinical training in the full spectrum of orthodontics—from early intervention and orthopedic appliances to surgical treatment planning for complex jaw discrepancies.
Dr. Cable’s experience spans over 25 years of combined orthodontic service, both in private practice and in military settings.
- 9 Years in the U.S. Army – Dr. Cable proudly served active-duty soldiers by providing high-level orthodontic and dental treatment.

Beyond the clinic, Dr. Cable is a leader who truly values service. He’s been an active Rotarian for 12 years, giving back to his community. His military background also speaks volumes about his character and values. During his 9 years in the Army, Dr. Cable provided care under high-pressure conditions and managed treatment for service members facing serious dental challenges. That kind of experience doesn’t just sharpen clinical skills—it builds a deep respect for discipline, teamwork, and empathy.
Outside the Practice
When he’s not transforming smiles, you’ll most likely find Dr. Cable running the local trails, on the water with a fishing rod in hand, or watching a sports game with a Pittsburgh jersey on his back. He’s a sports fanatic who loves all things Pittsburgh—whether it’s cheering on the Steelers, Penguins, or Pirates, Dr. Cable reps his hometown teams with pride.
Fishing is another passion that helps him unwind and recharge. Whether he's casting a line on a local lake or enjoying a quiet day on the water, Dr. Cable values the calm and focus that come with being outdoors.
He also believes that having a sense of humor, a love for sports, and hobbies outside of work help him connect with his patients on a more personal level.
