Unique Care For Unique Smiles
Your life, clinical situation, and smile goals are unique to you. You deserve an orthodontic experience that’s designed to meet all your needs. At your complimentary consultation, we’ll ask about your reasons for seeking treatment. Then, following your initial exam, Dr. Weiss or Dr. Tor will create a care path that’s right for you.
Before starting treatment, we’ll talk about the plan with you. We’ll review the steps, recommended treatment, and why it’s needed. We’ll also explain care options, and cover the strengths and weaknesses of each. You’ll always be provided with clear information and we’ll answer your questions directly and fully.
We want you to be part of the conversation and an active participant in your care. It’s essential you have the information you need to make an educated decision about treatment. This is your smile, after all!
Airway Orthodontics
Weiss & Tor Orthodontics distinguishes itself by specializing in airway-focused orthodontics, an approach that emphasizes the relationship between dental structures and respiratory health. Dr. Shira Tor leads this initiative, focusing on optimizing the size, shape, and function of the airway to promote better breathing and overall health. Airway orthodontics addresses factors such as narrow dental arches, skeletal discrepancies, and soft tissue abnormalities contributing to airway obstruction and sleep-related breathing conditions like snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. By integrating airway considerations into orthodontic treatment, Dr. Tor aims to improve not only dental alignment but also patients’ overall well-being. This comprehensive approach sets us apart from traditional practices, offering patients a path to enhanced health through improved airway function.

Weiss & Tor takes a comprehensive approach to treatment by working with an assortment of specialists including sleep physicians, dentists, myofunctional therapists, and ear, nose and throat (ENT) doctors. This unique collaboration among a variety of specialists allows for Dr. Tor to treat the ideology of problems rather than masking them. Weiss & Tor prioritizes early intervention of airway issues in order to curate tailored treatment plans based on each diagnosis, ensuring you get the best results possible.
