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.

Very happy with Byte! My teeth moved quickly and I noticed results almost immediately. I also feel like the bright byte really kept aligners fresh and my teeth white...I also love how they check in with you often throughout the entire process. I felt supported and could always get answers quickly.

I am so pleased and thankful for the Byte aligners. It’s an excellent product, that’s easy to manage, and the steps are very simple. The hyperbyte is a huge plus to have as well! I am so close to the end of my treatment and I am already so excited to smile again, but without being self-conscious!

I’ve been struggling with my smile for a long time. Since braces are so expensive I thought I just had to accept that fixing my biggest insecurity wasn’t going to happen anytime soon. I recently started seeing different companies emerge for at-home invisible liners and felt compelled to explore these options. After doing some research I decided that byte was the ultimately best choice, and I can already say that it was indeed the right one. The byte support team provides phenomenal assistance from the moment you purchase your impression kit. I have never once felt alone in this or left in the dark. The aligner package itself is so well thought out and it really seems like it was designed... Read More

I am currently in my fourth week of treatment with byte. So far the experience is ok. The only problem i face is that the aligners on the back side of my teeth (top and bottom) does not fit well at all (way over my teeth) and as a result is often very uncomfortable, and even gave me blisters.

Worst customer service ever!! Have been in treatment for 9 weeks and on my own with no support! No one checking on me or anything! Expected more from these people for the type of personalized care we should be getting! Been contacted 1 time in two months other than that all the emails where to refer a friend! The process for getting the (PROTECTION PLAN) was not explained correctly due to the fact that the sales persons is only out to make sale!! Have made numerous calls to speak to a manager and have not been contacted but once through email not phone call like I requested! And that email said that it would take another 72 business hours to follow up!!! REDICULOUS!!!
