Services
The majority of patients undergoing orthodontic care are children and teens. When kids are young, their jaws are constantly growing to accommodate new teeth. It is during this time that the teeth are easily moved, allowing for a shorter treatment time - especially in patients who undergo early treatment.
One of the best things about Invisalign treatment is the minimal impact it has on your everyday life. Since the aligners are so comfortable, you should be able to wear them for the recommended 20 to 22 hours a day without much effort. The aligners are easily removable, so you can continue to brush and floss your teeth as you normally would.
Don't let the duration of treatment get in your way of getting the smile you deserve. With the latest scientific findings and the cutting edge technology, we are able to move teeth faster and safer to achieve the desired results. CTOR Orthodontics is the clinical arm of the Consortium for Translational Orthodontic Research (CTOR), the world's leading center in the field of orthodontic research.
Orthodontics is no longer just for the young. With the growing awareness of dental health and esthetics, we now treat patients from 7 to 70 years old. While orthodontics alone can give you the great smile you deserve, adult treatment is more complex and may involve your general dentist and other specialists.
At CTOR Orthodontics, we understand that fees can sometimes be a concern for our patients. But we believe the benefits of a beautiful smile far outweigh the monetary costs. That's why we offer convenient, interest-free financing and payment options for our orthodontic treatments. We also accept most insurances, and will do our best to work with the coverage you have.

Two years ago our daughter was six years old when she began her ortho treatment. The friendly staff made it a pleasure to visit every month! My daughter was excited to go each & every time when most kids drag their feet to the dentist but not her ! Everyone in the office is hands on whether it is email, video calls, regular phone calls everything is made for smoother parent of patient relationship with the entire CTOR office. Dr.Sarah’s bedside manner with children is beyond words! She is so understanding, compassionate and answers any questions you may have (even if they seem silly she makes

Really challenging experiences in getting an appointments and therefore I think my son has had braces on for an extra 6 months or longer. Even now he doesn't come home from school until December 22rd and they are closed last two weeks of the year. Must be great to work there but not easy to teeth straightened in a timely manner. I haven't seen the completed work to provide feedback.

Omg I’m in love😍 my teeth were so messed up and I allowed ctor orthodontics to help me out. At first I was really scared and I was nervous. The great workers made me feel comfortable and made this quick and easy for me. They did an awesome job and would totally recommend it. It’s was worth the money. They make sure everything is perfect and take their time to make sure your smile is beautiful. They are all friendly, loving and are like family here. They make you feel welcome and most importantly very clean especially with COVID around. If you need your teeth straight this is the place.

Our experience at CTOR has been wonderful. The office is very clean and everyone is extremely friendly. We love the warm welcome from Mya and the excellence of orthodontists Dr. Alansari and Dr. Andrew. We had few emergency visits and they always made us feel comfortable and answered all our questions. They truly care for their patients.
We never had to wait, doctors are always on-time!
We highly recommend CTOR.

Simply Put, THE BEST!
The team at CTOR is so Amazing! From the first day to the last, they treat each and every client as if they're the most important. They provide meticulous and personalized care with every client, not like those other cookie cutter orthodontists. In my case I had multiple orthodontists convince me I needed oral maxillofacial jaw surgery to fix my teeth. Thankfully I walked into the CTOR office before going under the knife.
Dr. Alikhani and Dr. Alansari are the only orthodontists that confidently explained to me that surgery was not required. In just 2-1/2 Years they were

This office is truly amazing. Not only are you provided professional service but you're getting the latest and greatest technology and procedures. The office staff are sweet and accommodating. They worked with me and my HSA fund to make sure my daughter's dental/ortho work wasn't delayed even though we were in limbo with a 2K check from my HSA for 3 weeks!
We're always greeted with a welcoming smile upon entering and Dr. Alansari and all the medical staff is always eager to explain procedures and give tips on how to best care for braces. The office is a well oiled machine with

I can't say enough how amazing my experience was at CTOR and more importantly, under the care of Dr. Sarah Alansari. The passion she has for her work is completely reflected in the results of my treatment. I had an extreme overbite, and was told by previous orthodontists that I would need jaw surgery to correct it. I'm so thankful I came across CTOR, as my bite was completely corrected WITHOUT surgery and through an expander, ceramic braces and (many) rubber bands!. Dr. Alansari emphasized this from the very beginning, that braces can resolve this, with confidence. I put complete trust

Dr. Sarah is phenomenal. Literally the nicest, smartest orthodontist I've ever visited. She makes going to the dentist's office a pleasant trip. The rest of the staff, especially Dr. Faii, are beyond a pleasure to work with and can help answer any questions regarding treatment. They took a 9 month Invisalign treatment plan and reduced it to 3! I could not be happier. Big shoutout to Nicolle and Michele - could not have remembered my appointment times without you guys lol I absolutely love this team and will use any excuse to come back and visit.

So impressed with this office! I went for a free consult today with Dr. Alansari and her TMJ specialist. I was greeted warmly by Nicolle and the entire staff. I've had neck issues and fatigue in my face, which my acupuncturist and massage therapist have both attributed to me grinding my teeth. I didn't realize there was more I could do than wear a night guard. Dr. Alansari pointed out my issue rather quickly, noting that only my back molars touch, which places a lot of pressure on those particular muscles that feel fatigued. The TMJ specialist then went over some easy exercises I could

I just started my treatment here last month since I heard about accelerated orthodontics. I had a very good impression here since consultation. Dr. Chris took good care of me and listen to what exactly I want for my smile. We discussed details and he delivered what I expected. The clinic is very clean and new. Staffs are friendly and have great service mind. I found that they accepted insurance from many companies too. So far I am very impressed! Highly recommended!!
