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'm so impressed with the customer service of Byte. I hit a road block in my treatment and as soon as I let them know what was happening they completely addressed the issues, took me impressions and sent me new aligners and got me right back in track

My teeth are so much straighter. I love it! Even though my program has gone on quite a bit longer than initially planned,(I've had to do a few rounds of different aligners to get them just right), the Byte team has stuck by my side. They've been responsive and helpful to make sure we get it right. I'm so grateful and enjoying my updated smile.

I will say at first I was skeptical. I didn't understand how after being told braces would take 4 years, that these "aligners" would be 3 months!? But After 5 weeks, I already saw a difference. Granted, I had to get a re-mold and start a whole new system from week 1 again, but that's because I have strong teeth. The representatives and customer service made it so simple, that I felt like it was all part of the process. Here we are 5 weeks away from the end of my treatment and my teeth already look like I had braces! I've recommended this company to friends, family and co workers. All of which have inquired and ended up going with them! If you are looking for a simple, great communication... Read More

So far, it’s not perfect but it is still pretty good. The aligners fit well, the customer service can be hit or miss with getting through, but I’ve always managed to get small issues resolved quickly after reaching someone. I’m happy I decided to try this.

Only had a positive experience with the Byte Team! They are very helpful and quick to respond to your concerns. My treatment plan is going very well and I can already see the results within weeks. It is a bit painful at first as your teeth start to move but the end results will be worth it. I'm glad to have gone with Byte and will post an update once my treatment is over.

We are thrilled to hear that you are already seeing progress in your smile. The first few weeks can definitely be tough to get used to, but it will definitely be worth it! The HyperByte is also a great way to help with any discomfort you may feel. We can't wait to see those final results! Thank you for the great review.

I would recommend Byte! My smile has improved so much! I’m still wearing refinement aligners, but I’m really close and so happy. My top front teeth were out of alignment (along with others), but that is where I have seen the most improvement!

Initially I was excited about Byte. Beautiful packaging, aesthetics, customer service was good. Once I received my aligners, no one called to follow up. Only sent emails even after I reached out with concerns (that I still have) which I can’t always read. Initially, I chose Byte because of those first experiences with product and customer service. Now? I don’t even know what next steps are before retainers even after reaching out several times. I have a tooth that is still out of place. All in all, Byte has nice presentation and is attentive up until the transactional part of the experience is over. I wish they had called to address my concerns. It’s kind of discriminatory to assume... Read More
