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.

Easy to work with. Great customer service. Really great results so far. My only complaint is that I was sent 15/15 aligners for my bottom teeth. I thought i was almost done when I hit number 14/15. Then they told me I actually had 18 on the bottom and had to now wait 5-7 weeks to get the last three. That was not made clear before and adds a significant amount of time to my whole program.

Thanks so much for providing that feedback. We apologize for any miscommunication that took place in regards to your treatment plan. When a treatment plan is longer than 15 weeks, we only send the first 15 sets to start. This is so we can do a check-in with you at that point to make sure things are moving in the right direction, and if your teeth are not tracking properly we can make adjustments to the rest of your treatment plan. We are excited for you to finish out the rest of your treatment, and cannot wait to see your final results :)

So far my experience has been a pleasant one. The alignment system has been easy to use and clean. My customer care specialist Jacob has reached out multiple times to see how things are going and recommend tips or products. The Byte box was organized and had clear instructions.

So far Byte has been great. Easy from the start. Got my aligners and goodies and the directions were easy to follow. So far I’ve had good results. I’m not done yet but it’s been an easy process for a fraction of the cost. So far, I would recommend

I haven’t gotten my aligners yet but since I started the process I’ve had three people already talk to me about the plan and the process. They are all supportive and super nice and very excited to be apart of this journey with me. The impression kit came quickly and it was super easy to do. They give you so many different ways to be able to get the best impressions possible before you even start it. I can’t wait to get my aligners so I can start my journey fully with byte!
