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 was at first an exciting experience. The customer care team was quick and available when I got started. Offered less then helpful information about how my aligners should fit as I progressed through each week and alas the lack of communication and clear direction led to aligners that didn’t fit and a halt in progress. So eventually of course I needed a refinement set. I’ve text and emailed 6 times in the last three weeks with no response on next steps. My treatment plan has not been updated on my account either so I can’t review the new treatment since no one has replied to me. So. Beware. That if you are further into the process and need refinement aligners you are not a priority to... Read More

I've always been very self-conscious about the crowding in my lower teeth and thus have explored braces and Invisalign as options for years but found that Invisalign was way too expensive and I hated the thought of having braces for a year or more. When I came across Byte, I kind of thought it was too good to be true...so I did lots of research, read tons of positive reviews and found that it was one of the most affordable options and I decided to go for it! I opted for the night version because I knew it would be a lot easier to keep up with. The impression kit took some getting used to but was actually pretty easy to do - my recommendation is to practice without the putty in first to... Read More

I started my 12 week Byte at Night experience 10 months ago and have not had much success. I was supposed to change aligners every 7 days and it would take at least 2 - 4 weeks per change out. For the past 5 months I have been in Upper Tray 5 and Lower Tray 8, unable to get the next set of trays to work. I contacted byte and they sent refinement aligners, a new 10 week program; however, I can't get them to fit at all so here I am over $2,000 out of pocket paid upfront and I'm basically restarting the program with aligners not fitting. Also, when my original aligners arrived, I was missing aligners and had to contact them to send those. When I contact byte needing actual help it takes days... Read More

I've been really happy with the customer service and product overall. All of my questions have been quickly, professionally, an enthusiastically responded to. The treatment is going to take a few more aligners than initially anticipated, but they are doing it for no extra cost and I've been really happy with the process and my smile.
