topsOrtho review
A focused orthodontic system combining patient flow, clinical planning, claims and payments.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
topsOrtho is a practice management system built specifically for orthodontic practices. It brings office operations and patient care into one environment, covering appointment scheduling, online booking, treatment planning, insurance claims, billing, payments, messaging, reminders, imaging, and check-in. The platform is aimed at small and mid-market practices that need orthodontic-oriented workflows rather than a general dental clinic system. Its Patient Flow view adds a front-office perspective by showing waiting patients alongside treatment information.
Pricing is handled through contact sales, so practices need a vendor conversation to establish commercial terms. The deployment model is hybrid: the vendor describes cloud-powered access alongside a Mac-based app, with support for web, macOS, and iOS. That combination is suited to teams working across locations while retaining a Mac-centered office application. Support channels are email and phone, and the published support model does not provide 24/7 coverage. Practices should account for that coverage when planning operational support.
The strongest depth appears in orthodontic patient flow and treatment coordination. Scheduling templates can be customized by location, patients can book online, and staff can send custom or bulk two-way texts. Automated reminders run through calls, texts, and email, while treatment plans track progress. Imaging integration supports intraoral scanners and STL files; electronic claims include feedback and eligibility checks; integrated payments support recurring charges; and iPad check-in updates records in real time. Choose topsOrtho when orthodontic workflows are central. General dental clinics or teams requiring round-the-clock support may need a different fit.
