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.

I'm just over halfway through my treatment and am already noticing great results. This company makes everything so easy and has fantastic customer service. Also their product design is top notch. Would absolutely recommend to a friend.

I'm close to halfway through my treatment and I'm very pleased. I had pretty bad crowding, especially with my upper teeth, and my self esteem suffered from elementary school into my 30's. I finally took the plunge with Byte after Candid Co. denied me as a candidate without an actual explanation as to why. The impression kit arrived quickly and then my results were emailed to me really quickly as well after shipping back the impression kit. The first portion of my aligners (first 15 weeks) arrived about 3 weeks after I was approved as a candidate. I really like that a local orthodontist created my treatment plan and his name is listed on every individual pack of aligners. I googled his... Read More

So far everything has been great with talking to representatives to the product. I wanted to try these aligners looking at others reviews, and also the extra discount. I will give more info when I’m done with my 22 weeks.

I’m not done with my treatment process yet. It’s taking longer than I expected, and I have to take a second round of impressions. However, I’m quite satisfied with the fast responses of the customer service staff. Any time I have any concerns or questions, they get back to me right away. And I appreciate knowing that they will work to get my alignment just right. Hoping to give 5 stars once my treatment is finally done!

Originally my smile was supposed to take 16 weeks. Ended up getting another 15 weeks of refinement retainers. I ran out of the foam cleaner after the first 16 weeks and they wouldn’t send a complimentary bottle for the next 15 weeks.

I love my byte! I have always wanted straight teeth but couldn't qualify for braces. This was the best and most affordable option for me. I was hurting pretty bad my first few days but at the time I didn't know what to expect. Now that I know it doesn't seem as bad and the results make it all worth it.

Currently in the night treatment! In 4 weeks using my aligners I’m starting to notice difference, and I’m super happy I made the decision to fix my teeth! I had orthodontics as a kid but stopped using my retainers and they moved a bit. I think it’s very recommendable for simple treatments since there’s no in office check ups! Very excited to share my results :)

My crossbite has always affected my confidence. To improve my professional presence and boost my confidence, I recently decided to pursue a straighter smile. Byte was my first choice! The customer service is always fast & friendly. The process is very detailed and clear -- they really set you up for success. The aligners are comfortable and nearly invisible. I recently wore mine for family photos, and you cannot tell at all that I have them on! I am about one-third of the way through and I can already see movement and an impressive amount of whitening. I highly recommend Byte for a straighter smile.
