How Much Does Invisalign Cost in Ontario? 2026 Price Guide

Invisalign in Ontario usually costs about $2,000 to $8,000. What moves the price, what insurance covers, and how to get a real quote in Maple.

In Ontario, Invisalign usually costs between about $2,000 and $8,000. The low end is for small fixes to a few front teeth. The high end is full treatment that moves every tooth and changes your bite. Your exact number comes from a scan and an exam, and at our Maple office you get that number, in writing, before you commit to anything.

The short version

  • Minor cases: around $2,000. Full cases: up to around $8,000.
  • Insurance with orthodontic coverage often pays part of it. CDCP does not currently cover orthodontics.
  • You can spread the cost over monthly payments.
  • Your price is set at a consultation with an iTero 5D scan, not guessed over the phone.

What the price actually depends on

Two people can both “need Invisalign” and end up $5,000 apart. The difference is almost always how much the teeth have to move.

A little crowding in the lower front teeth might take a few months and a short series of aligners. A deep bite, an open bite or teeth that need to rotate a long way can take well over a year and a lot more aligners. More aligners, more check-ins and more refinement trays mean a higher fee.

A few other things move the number:

  • Whether you need attachments (small tooth-coloured bumps that help the aligners grip) and how many.
  • Whether other work has to happen first, like a cleaning, a filling or treating gum problems.
  • Retainers at the end. Ask whether they’re included in your quote. At our office we’ll tell you either way.

How we give you a real number

Treatment here starts with an iTero 5D scan at your consultation. There are no messy putty impressions. You see a simulation of how your teeth could move, how long it’s likely to take and what it costs. Dr. Sophie Polymeneas, a general dentist who has been published three times in the Invisalign GP Summit, goes over the plan with you.

If your case needs more than aligners can do, she’ll tell you at that visit. You leave knowing your plan and your price. It’s a scan, not a sales pitch. Read more on our Invisalign in Maple page.

Does insurance cover Invisalign?

Often, partly. Plans with orthodontic coverage usually pay some of the cost, up to a lifetime maximum for orthodontics. Plans without it usually pay nothing toward aligners.

The easiest way to find out is to let us ask. We can send a pre-treatment estimate to your insurer so you know what your plan covers before you start. After each visit we send claims electronically, and your insurer pays you back directly.

A health spending account can often be used toward the balance. At tax time, the CRA lists orthodontic work paid to a dentist as an eligible medical expense for the medical expense tax credit. Treatment done purely for cosmetic reasons isn’t eligible. The details are in the CRA’s medical expenses guide (RC4065), and your accountant can tell you how it applies to you.

The Canadian Dental Care Plan doesn’t cover Invisalign. The government’s CDCP coverage page says orthodontic services are currently not available under the plan. We still accept CDCP for check-ups, cleanings and other covered care. The full details are on our costs, insurance and CDCP page.

Paying monthly

You don’t have to pay for Invisalign all at once. You can spread it over monthly payments, and we’ll go through the options at your consultation. We take credit, debit and tap.

Be careful with very low advertised prices

You’ll see aligner offers well under $2,000, especially from mail-order companies. Some of these skip the in-person exam, X-rays and check-ins. Others quote a starting price that only covers the mildest cases. Before you compare numbers, ask what’s included: the scan, all the aligners, refinements, check-ins and retainers.

Is Invisalign worth it compared to braces?

For most adults and teens who can wear aligners 20 to 22 hours a day, the cost is in the same range as braces. The trade-off is lifestyle. Aligners come out to eat and brush, and most people don’t notice them. Braces stay on and don’t depend on you remembering to wear them. If you’re not sure you’ll wear aligners consistently, say so at your consultation. It changes the recommendation.
