About Todorthodontics Smile Studio
Todorthodontics Smile Studio operates on Stockton Street in the Union Square area of San Francisco, California. Traditional braces use brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into alignment, handling complex bite corrections and significant crowding more predictably than removable alternatives. Treatment commonly runs one to three years, with a retainer worn afterward to hold the result.
Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.
Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.
Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway. This page has the practice's contact details and full service list. Get in touch through it to ask questions or book a visit.
Based on Stockton Street in the Union Square area of San Francisco, California, Todorthodontics Smile Studio provides braces alongside routine dental care. The practice is open Tuesday through Friday. Contact details and a full list of services are on this page.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve had a wonderful experience with Todorthodontics! The team is friendly, professional, and always makes you feel welcome. Dr. Todor and his staff truly care about their patients. Highly recommend! 😊
This is my second time getting Invisalign to correct my bite, first time with Todororthodontics – and their practice is a completely different experience altogether. It’s incredible! The staff is really attentive and thorough – Carmela explained everything clearly at the start, walking me through my treatment, the systems they use for monitoring, and additional exercises I should do along with Invisalign, to help with tongue thrusting that’s impacting my bite. The weekly scans you can do at home really help in showing your progress, and it’s really easy to communicate with the team if you have questions along the way. And Dr. Todor is just the best. He’s so detail-oriented in how he sets up your treatment, and makes all kinds of micro-adjustments throughout, to ensure the aligners are doing exactly what he wants them to do. My jaw stopped clicking early on in treatments, and I stopped waking up with headaches – really incredible to feel the difference and not just see it. Overall, the system, the treatment, and the team are all so thorough and attentive. I really feel taken care of – would recommend to anyone!
Stellar doctor. Stellar staff. Highly competent even at the hardest cases. All at very reasonable prices.
They're the best! I tried many options in San Francisco before Todorthodontics and none come close. Carmela was really kind and considerate with my case. They treat you as more than a patient and have an amazing office. Would recommend 11/10.
The professionalism of this office is astounding! I had a wonderful consultation and felt very cared for in Todor’s knowledge. Coming to Todor this will be my 3rd time in braces (as a kid then for purely esthetic goals as an adult). I have a complicated skeletal structure and bite—- and that is the goal this time to fix functional issues once and for all. The detail to explain my anatomy and how we can accomplish changes without having double jaw surgery was wonderful. All the staff is knowledgeable and very communicative, no question was too small. Also the office dog just made my day, a sweet comfort for anyone who may be nervous.
Absolutely the best experience I’ve ever had with an orthodontist office. Everyone here has been incredible throughout my entire Invisalign treatment — professional, kind, responsive, and genuinely caring. Melissa has been especially wonderful and so helpful every time I’ve needed anything. I recently lost my retainers while traveling, and she made the whole replacement process incredibly easy and stress-free. I’m so grateful I chose this office for my treatment. Even years later, they continue to take amazing care of me. I truly couldn’t recommend them more!
Had a great experience at my new patient exam! The office is beautiful, and everyone on the staff was very welcoming and friendly. Carmela was exceptional and truly made my visit the best it could be. She was knowledgeable, kind, and took the time to clearly explain everything while answering all of my questions. Dr. Todor was wonderful as well and I love his work. I'm excited to start my new smile journey!
Sam was very helpful and kind in every appointment. Dexter was also super informative as well and could answer many of my questions. I had a very great experience with the Dr Todortho and the whole Todorthodonics team.
Carmela at Todorthontics is incredible. Super kind helping me through Invisalign specially if had to reschedule an appointment or needed a nudge. These guys are solid. Also super convenient location and place is really nice.
I had a great experience at this dental office. Everyone was friendly and professional from the moment I arrived. I would especially like to recognize Carmela for her outstanding service. She was kind, patient, and very attentive throughout my visit. She took the time to answer all of my questions, explained everything clearly, and made me feel comfortable and well cared for. Thank you, Carmela, for your excellent customer service and professionalism. I truly appreciate your help and highly recommend this dental office to anyone looking for quality dental care.
I never been so excited to get my teeth worked on. My smile and ego is so strong 💪🏾 and it’s only because of todorthodontics everyone is so amazing a sweet and caring. I can’t get enough of this beautiful place. If I can give 10s across the board I would. Love them. They make braces look good 😊
I went in today to start my Invisalign journey and had such a great experience! Carmela, the clinical manager, took care of me the whole time and made me feel so comfortable. The doctor also stopped by to say hi and check if I had any questions which was a really nice touch. Actually my mom did her Invisalign here too and her teeth look amazing now. She’s the one who recommended this place to me and I’m so glad she did! I decided to go for it and I’m so excited to get started! Highly recommend 😊👍🏻👏🏻
