One thing stands out. Google AI Mode cites company sites directly: pacificsmilesdental.com.au tops its list, so a company’s own pages decide whether it is named.

What to do with your row

Most recommendedTop 3 on an engine

Open your full report, then take the “Top 3 in AI answers” badge. It names the engine, it links back here, and it is free. Then keep the spot: Findrix tracks all three engines for your company and tells you when a rival moves in.

MentionedNamed, not recommended

Findrix shows you, answer by answer, who took the recommendation instead of you and which sites got them there. Your site becomes a numbered list of edits, and the next scan confirms each one.

Not namedMissing from all 180 answers

Findrix runs your buyers’ questions for your company and shows what AI says instead of you, with every wrong fact and the correction written for you.

What “Top 3 in AI answers” means

Top 3 in AI answers · Findrix AI Rankings · Google AI Mode · Orthodontic clinic groups in Australia · October 2026Top 3 in AI answersFindrixOrthodontic clinic groups in AustraliaFindrix AI Rankings · Google AI Mode · Oct 2026

A company gets the badge when it is in the top 3 on any single engine, by how many of that engine’s answers recommend it, not just name it. The badge names the engine, so a company can hold it on Gemini and not on ChatGPT. In Australia that is Orthodontics Exclusively, Smiles Group Orthodontists & Dental Specialists and Melbourne Orthodontic Group on ChatGPT. Orthodontics Exclusively, Smiles Group Orthodontists & Dental Specialists and Melbourne Orthodontic Group on Gemini. Pacific Smiles Dental, Smiles Group Orthodontists & Dental Specialists and Smile Team on Google AI Mode. 9 badges, 5 companies. A badge holder confirms its website inside the report and puts the badge on its site, and it links back to this page.

The 60 questions we asked

Every company was measured against the same 60 questions, asked the way a buyer types them, with no company name in the question. Grouped by how the question is asked: three kinds.

Alternatives (excluding the well-known)

the question asks for options outside the market leaders2 questions
  • Looking for Brisbane orthodontist groups that use digital scans instead of goopy moulds.
  • Give me orthodontist groups in Australia that use clear retainers instead of wire ones.

Criterion (price, reviews, support, integration)

a plain category question with one qualifier5 questions
  • Down in Hobart, which orthodontist groups give a fixed price that covers the retainers and all the adjustments?
  • Which orthodontic groups across Australia have a patient coordinator who explains the costs and options up front?
  • What are the best-reviewed orthodontic groups across Australia?

+ 2 more questions in this group.

Other phrasing

53 questions
  • Which orthodontist groups have clinics in the regional towns of New South Wales?
  • Looking for orthodontic groups in New South Wales that work closely with oral surgeons on jaw surgery cases.
  • I need braces fitted around work, so which Sydney orthodontic groups open early or late?

+ 50 more questions in this group.

How we measure

Each of the 60 questions was asked once to ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode in October 2026: 180 answers. We read every answer and record which companies it names. A company’s share is the part of answers that name it. Different spellings of one company are merged into one row.

Left out: companies outside Australia, and names that aren’t orthodontic clinic groups. A name AI gave without a website we could find is listed without a profile.

One run per question means a single answer moves a company at the bottom of the table by a point. Treat differences of 1 to 2% as noise and the top 20 as stable.

Questions about this ranking

Why isn’t my company listed?

Either no engine named it in the 180 answers we read, or it was named and we could not match it to a website. Search the list above. If it was named, its full report is ready. If it was never named, Findrix shows what AI says when buyers ask about orthodontic clinic groups, which rivals it names instead, and a ranked list of fixes: the page, the edit, and the next scan ticks it off. It starts with the 7-day trial.

What is in the full report?

Everything we collected about the company: its position on each of ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Mode, recommended or only mentioned, its average position in the answer and what AI says about it word for word. It is free and open to anyone, no login. The “Top 3 in AI answers” badge goes on the company’s site when any engine puts it in its top 3.

Why would I subscribe if I am already listed?

This page is one snapshot. Findrix is where you control and grow your AI visibility over time: your own question set, 60 to 180 questions by plan, tracked for you and your rivals. On every answer you see recommended, only mentioned, or a rival, and which sites earned that rival the spot. Wrong facts come with the correction email written for you. Your site becomes a numbered plan: which page, what to change, confirmed by the next scan. A PDF report for you and your team. It starts with the 7-day trial.

Can I correct or remove my company’s listing?

Use Request a correction at the bottom of the page: we check the change against the answers and fix the listing. For anything else, write to us there too and we will look at it against your website.
