Our Facilities
The CTOR Academy campus is located in Hoboken, New Jersey with 2 locations within 3 blocks of each other. All areas in the CTOR Academy facilities are compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act with direct access through elevators.
CTOR Academy facilities are state-of-the-art, fully digital and functionally designed to create engaging environments that promote seamless translation and integration of didactic, clinical and research knowledge and skills needed to drive innovation and efficiency in Orthodontics, Dentofacial Orthopedics and Craniofacial Biology. These facilities include offices, classrooms, faculty and student lounges, locker rooms and conference rooms. These common areas provide seating to invite student interactions. CTOR Academy's classrooms can sit up to 30 students and are all equipped with electronic digital boards.
CTOR Academy library offers studying areas and a collection of all important Orthodontics and Craniofacial Biology textbooks, including books by leaders in Orthodontics. In addition, all CTOR Academy full-time faculty and students are members of the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) and other associations in discipline-specific research areas, including (but not limited to) the International and American Association for Dental Research (IADR, AADR), the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR), and the American Cleft Palate Association (ACPA), all of which include online subscriptions to their respective journals.
CTOR Academy's clinical facilities are fully digital with chairside computers for access to patient's records, and equipped with advanced technology like digital Pan/Ceph x-ray machines, 3-D imaging, intraoral scanners, and shockwave therapy machinery. Each of the 3 clinical practices features reception areas, comfortable waiting rooms, sterilization labs and radiology rooms. There are two pre-clinical laboratories and four private operatories. In total, there are 18 treatment bays.
CTOR Academy research facilities include 3 independent laboratories equipped for cell culture, histological analysis, molecular biology studies, including gene expression and protein analysis. These facilities, along with the facilities of our global collaborators, provide CTOR Academy students, fellows and faculty with access to cutting-edge equipment for transformative clinical, translational and basic research.
The pre-clinical laboratories are equipped with tools and typodonts for “hands on” training of students in basic clinical skills and fabrication and adjustment of removable orthodontic appliances and retainers. In addition, to a fully equiped biomechanics laboratory, one of the pre-clinical laboratories has 6 computers with 3D planning software for aligners and Dolphin for VTO simulations.
