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.

This is a journey I wish I took long time ago. I love everything about it. From the day I got my impression kit, that made it incredibly easy and conviniet to start from the comfort of my home, to the treatment itself, that is uncomfortable at times ( obviously :) my teeth are moving into their new place ) , to incredible customer service, the best marketing and packaging. I'm so happy I'm doing this and can't wait for my final results :)

I have had the best experience with byte and I’m so glad I went with them versus any other company! The hyperbyte has really made this process go so fast and I’m finally able to smile with confidence again. My gap closed after just 4 weeks of treatment and now after 11 weeks I’m almost finished completely. I would recommend byte to anyone and everyone!

So I am LOVING my byte experience so far! They were extremely helpful during the onboarding process, and are available to answer any questions I have along the way. Im on week 4 right now and I can already feel/see the difference when I smile. Im smiling harder and my teeth are lining up just like I thought they should have for far too long! LOVING. Im on a 12 week plan and can't wait to see the progress even more!!

I was a little skeptical, but wow. They work great and my teeth are much whiter. I'm not perfect with my schedule and still makes a huge difference. The customer service is also very reliable and responsive.

Excellent customer service and a relatively easy process to get my custom aligners. I was even able to use my insurance to cover most of the cost.

Byte has been a true revelation! I'm finishing up my 5th week and so far the process has been very smooth. The HyperByte has helped with any initial discomfort with the new aligners, which for the most part has been minimal. Even my 6 year old daughter who can be very attentive didn't know that I had the aligners on. So having the aligners on has been a comfortable feeling in more than one way. The Customer Care Team has also been very nice. They have reached out to check in, and have been very responsive to any questions or concerns. So far, 5 out of 5 stars!
