About Dr. Christensen

Nice to meet you, I’m Dr. Ryann Christensen! I’m excited to be part of your smile transformation and help you gain the confidence and wellness benefits that come with a healthy, beautiful smile.

Born and raised in Fresno, my journey into orthodontics began at eight years old, when my own orthodontist not only transformed my smile but also sparked my dream of becoming an orthodontist. His fun and positive approach, along with the life-changing impact of treatment, inspired me to pursue this path. After double majoring at Fresno State as a Smittcamp Family Honors Scholar, I attended UCLA Dental School, where I graduated at the top of my class. From there, I completed UCLA’s Orthodontic Residency and Oral Biology Program, turning my childhood dream into reality!

Now, I’m thrilled to serve the Central Valley, helping people of all ages improve their smiles and confidence. My hope is to have the same lasting impact on my patients’ lives that my orthodontist had on mine. When I’m not in the office, you’ll find me spending time with my husband, Lance, and our two adventurous kids, Logan and Hayes. As a family, we love staying active, whether it’s at the park, the beach, or building forts at home.

As mentioned, I can’t wait to meet you and be part of your journey toward a confident, radiant smile!
