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.

I’ve thought about how to start this review a million times and honestly, I think you just need to hear the facts. Byte is easy, efficient, has a quicker turn around and results than other options out there and is affordable whether you have an HSA or use one of their payment plans. If you’re looking for a straighter smile at an affordable price with little to no hassle LOOK NO MORE! Byte is your guy. If you want to know more about my experience so far, scroll down. If not, enjoy your straighter whiter teeth. I had been looking into teeth straightening options for a while but couldn’t decide on one that made total sense (factoring in time, money, effort etc). Until big brother... Read More

I’m only a couple of weeks in but so far so good! The first few days were torture getting use to having the aligners in but it’s been smooth sailing since. Now that I’m further in I can actually feel my teeth moving which is awesome because it gives me the will power to keep going knowing that progress really is happening. I love the whitening cleaner they send. Not only does it taste good but it also whitens super fast! I can’t wait to see my final results :)

I have wanted to fix my teeth for some time and was nervous at first. I did my research and chose Byte because I needed only minor changes to my top and bottom teeth. So far it has been a great experience, I had some concerns and they were quickly and professionally answered. I am very happy with the customer service and quality of product I am using and cannot wait until I finish. I am half way through and very happy with what I am seeing and am confident I will have the teeth I have always wanted.

Easy to order, make your molds at home, receive aligners about a month later and begin forging your new smile. Easy and affordable, with payment options to suit just about anyone. My one and only complaint is that some (not all) of the aligners are really rough and sharp on the edges, cutting my gums and even my tongue. They are aware of this issue as a small file is included, however that after an hour or more of filing, it just wasn't going to smooth out some of the edges. 10 weeks in though, and my teeth are straighter. I'm happy.

I am still using Byte, I am about halfway through my plan. I should have been done by now but I lost an aligner and in my negligence didn't replace it. Ive started over and have been more dedicated to using hyperbyte every day and calling customer care when I have questions or need a new aligner. Customer care was great from the first time I called and walked me through every step. I also enjoy the brightening foam I see a difference in the aligners and my teeth whitening quality when I use it. I have recommended byte to my co workers. I did not know about FSA when I ordered byte or I would have included it in my FSA plan. Look into if your job offers that way payment continue to be... Read More

I’m so happy I decided to get BYTE, super easy to use & excellent customer service! My teeth have gaps & not so white, with BYTE I found my perfect solution. I’m 50 years old, with the BYTE system I feel so much better about myself.

I am was really pleased with the initial cost vs going through my dentist for Invisable Aligners. Ultimately, with insurance it cost me 1/3 of what i would have paid even using my insurance at the dentist. And then, the speed at which my teeth are shifting is phenomenal. Using the hyperbyte every day, I could see a considerable difference in just a few weeks!

This has been a very good experience for me. My family is impressed with how quickly my teeth are becoming whiter and straighter. The best part is being able to do everything from home without ever going to the dentist.
