Overall Rating: 4.9 / 5 (Excellent)

Byte launched its teledentistry platform in 2019 and has since enjoyed remarkable growth in the invisible aligner market. The company's low-cost, guaranteed impression kit, staff of licensed dentists and orthodontists, as well the free product enhancements it offers, make Byte an attractive option for patients who need mild to moderate orthodontic correction.

To get started, patients complete an at-home impression kit and provide photographs to be evaluated through a personalized patient portal. Once treatment is approved by a dental professional, they will receive a set of aligners. byte uses a technology called Smile Science, created by a Hollywood dentist, to help determine each patient's course of alignment treatment.

Byte treatment also relies on the company's proprietary HyperByte device, which uses high frequency vibration, which may help to reduce treatment time (when used 5 mins a day with aligners) and ease the discomfort patients sometimes experience when using aligners.

Byte Product Specs

Aligner Specifications - 5 / 5

byte lets consumers who need minor to moderate alignment enjoy a better smile at a reasonable cost, without having to visit the orthodontist frequently.

Byte's aligners are made of BPA-free plastic that gradually shift teeth into proper alignment. To qualify for treatment, consumers purchase an impression kit and take photos of their teeth and return them to Byte. These submissions are evaluated by Byte's team of dentists and orthodontist to determine whether customers are good candidates for Byte's course of treatment. Once approved, patients then purchase a full treatment package, composed of multiple aligners they will change every week. At the end of the treatment, a free retainer is provided to retain the alignment.

Byte Pricing

Pricing - 5 / 5

Byte is an attractive alternative to other mail-order aligner services, because of the company's guaranteed low-cost impression kit, free retainer service, and its financing program, which requires a low down payment of $249. Monthly payments are affordable at $82/per month over a term of 32 months. Byte financing is available to all patients, regardless of credit history, and includes the Byte Protection Program, a service that provides free retainers for 5 years post-treatment. Regardless of whether you finance your treatment, once it's complete, Byte will provide a free retainer to help you maintain your new smile.

Byte's impression kit also comes with a 100% money-back guarantee: If you don't qualify for Byte aligners, the company will refund the cost of your impression kit. That makes trying Byte a risk-free proposition.

Byte replacement aligners are not free, but they only cost $29 for the first aligner, then $99 for every following aligner. A free whitening kit and the company's exclusive HyperByte device is included with each treatment plan.

Would like a more detailed explanation to questions. Always friendly and prompt replies but several different people to deal with during the initial start up as been challenging to me. Just starting out so eager to see what the outcome is.

This is certainly a great company! I recommend this to individuals who are looking for clear aligners. I did not give this company 5 stars just because I always find myself filing the aligners.

Byte is a generation beyond all other invisible aligner companies. There hyperbyte technology, and customer service is stellar. They are a 5 star company. I would recommend them to anyone considering improving their smile.

Within the first couple days of using Byte I started seeing a difference in my teeth. I wore braces for 5 years before using Byte. Its nice to see a difference within the first couple weeks than the 5 years I had braces for! I’m excited to see the finished product. They are available to answer any questions, are super personable, and the process was very easy from my impression kit to starting my treatment. I also think the hyperbyte is an added touch that is different from other companies and probably will help you if this is your first time wearing aligners. It helps with any discomfort. I highly recommend Byte to anyone that wants to straighten their teeth with an easy and pain free... Read More

I’m in my mid-30s and don’t have “bad teeth,” but I’ve never had perfect teeth either. I’ve always been self-conscious about my center gap and overbite, so I finally decided to do something about it. Byte has been a great experience so far and I’m only a third of the way through now. Byte at Night allows me to only wear my aligners for 10 hours a night, so in the daytime I don’t have to worry about anything. I cannot imagine doing this without the help of Hyperbyte, which uses vibrations to alleviate any discomfort you might (and will!) experience. Hey, beauty is a little pain! But it’s all worth it in the end. My only regret so far is not learning about Byte sooner.

I highly recommend Byte! I researched many different aligner companies and decided on Byte due to the positive reviews, and Byte has certainly lived up to the hype. From the beginning of the process, the customer service team is highly attentive, response, and extremely helpful. A patient care advisor has been following my treatment each step of the way. Byte aligners are very easy to use and I like how the entire process is streamlined (the aligner cleanser also doubles as a teeth whitener). I'm currently halfway through my treatment and can't say enough about the entire Byte experience thus far! I am already seeing great results. I also love how they take into consideration the results I... Read More
