Watch: 5 Best Orthodontic Clinics in Toronto (2026)

Health information disclaimer: This directory is informational only and not medical advice. Rankings reflect publicly available Google ratings and review volume, not clinical outcomes. Verify any practitioner’s credentials and registration with the relevant medical board before booking.

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not opinion or payment. Rating is the clinic’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many patients have rated them, ranked against other Toronto orthodontic clinics. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from over a thousand reviews carries more weight than the same score from a few dozen. Recency reflects how recently patients are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much do braces and Invisalign cost in Toronto? (2026)

Orthodontic treatment cost depends heavily on case complexity, appliance type and treatment length, and none of the clinics above publish a fixed public price list. Ask for a written treatment plan and payment schedule during your free consultation.

Serving all of Toronto

These clinics are spread across central Toronto, from the Financial District around Bay Street and First Canadian Place to St Clair Avenue in Forest Hill and Dundas Street West. Searching for an orthodontic clinic near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and address so you can reach the closest option.

What to ask before you choose an orthodontic clinic

  • What treatment options fit my case (traditional braces, ceramic, lingual, or Invisalign)?
  • How long is the expected treatment timeline, and how many visits will it take?
  • What is the total cost, and are there payment plan options?
  • Do you treat both children and adults, and is there a difference in approach?
  • What happens if I need a repair or adjustment between scheduled visits?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these orthodontic clinics?

We started from orthodontic clinics in Toronto with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (July 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

What is the difference between a general dentist and an orthodontist?

A general dentist handles overall oral health, while an orthodontist specializes in aligning teeth and jaws, typically with braces or clear aligners like Invisalign. Several clinics above employ dedicated orthodontists on staff.

At what age should a child first see an orthodontist in Toronto?

Several clinics above, including Forest Hill Orthodontics, offer early assessment and airway-focused orthodontics for children. Ask your dentist or one of these clinics directly about the right timing for your child.

The bottom line

Forest Hill Orthodontics is the safe default given its scale and consistency, while Toothworks Bay Adelaide Dental and 123 Dental are strong picks if you want orthodontic treatment bundled with broader family dental care. Book a free consultation before committing, since treatment plans and costs vary case by case.
