Three Options

Three Braces Options, One Specialist Standard

Traditional Metal Braces

The most reliable and most affordable option. Modern metal braces are smaller and more comfortable than past generations. Effective for virtually every type of orthodontic case.

Best for: Children, teens, adults seeking value, complex cases
Treatment time: 12 to 24 months

Ceramic (Clear) Braces

Same shape and effectiveness as metal braces, but with tooth-coloured brackets that blend with your natural teeth. Less visible — ideal for adults who want discreet treatment without the cost of Invisalign.

Best for: Adults and older teens seeking aesthetics
Treatment time: 12 to 24 months

Self-Ligating Braces (Damon System)

Specialized brackets that do not require elastic ties. Less friction means faster movement, fewer adjustments, and reduced discomfort. Available in metal and clear versions.

Best for: Patients seeking faster treatment with fewer visits
Treatment time: 6 to 18 months, typically 3 to 6 months faster
All Ages Welcome

Braces for Every Age

Ages 7 to 12

Children

The Canadian Association of Orthodontists recommends an initial evaluation by age 7. Early intervention corrects developing bite issues, guides adult teeth into proper positions, and can reduce or eliminate complex treatment later. Consultations for children are always free.

Ages 12 to 18

Teenagers

The most common age for full orthodontic treatment. Permanent teeth are in place, the jaw is still flexible, and treatment is highly effective. We work around school and extracurricular schedules with evening and weekend appointments.

Ages 18 plus

Adults

It is never too late for a great smile. With ceramic options available, more adults than ever are getting the orthodontic treatment they always wanted. Adult orthodontics is faster, more discreet, and more comfortable than ever.

FAQ

Common Questions About Braces

How much do braces cost in North York?

We are currently offering $2,500 off full braces treatment in North York as a limited-time savings on eligible new patient cases. Braces typically range from $5,000 to $7,500 depending on case complexity, so eligible patients pay $2,500 to $5,000 under the current promotion. You receive a fixed, all-inclusive quote at your free consultation.

Do braces hurt?

You will feel mild pressure or soreness for 2 to 3 days after placement and adjustments. Over-the-counter pain relievers handle it easily. Most patients adapt within a week.

How long does treatment take?

Most patients complete braces treatment in 12 to 24 months. Self-ligating braces are typically 3 to 6 months faster.

Can adults get braces?

Absolutely. Adults are the fastest-growing group in orthodontic treatment in Canada. Many of our adult patients choose ceramic braces for a more discreet appearance.

Are there foods I cannot eat with braces?

Avoid very hard, sticky, or chewy foods. We will give you a full list at your placement appointment.

Does insurance cover braces?

Most major Canadian dental plans cover 50% of orthodontic treatment up to a lifetime maximum. We direct-bill all major providers.

Can I play sports or musical instruments with braces?

Yes. We provide custom mouthguards for contact sports. Wind instrument players adapt within a few weeks.

How often will I need appointments?

Every 4 to 6 weeks, about 30 minutes each. Evening and weekend appointments available.

What happens after braces come off?

You will wear retainers to keep teeth in their new position. Retainers are essential — skipping them is the #1 reason results do not last.

Is the consultation really free?

Yes, completely free including the orthodontic exam and 3D scans.
