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.

So much love and support from the Byte team since day one. I’m 12 weeks in and about to continue to the second half of my treatment. My teeth are already looking so much better, I couldn’t have chosen a better company to go through this with!

I'm on week one of wearing my aligners. I can already feel (and see) the aligners slowly starting to move my teeth into better position (when I take them out briefly to eat a meal, my mouth feels a bit sore, and I have a mild headache--signs that things are working, encouraging me to keep my eye on the prize; plus, the HyperByte device seems to increase my sense of comfort wearing the aligner). One of the most noticeable initial changes was how the BrightByte cleaning/whitening solution really seemed to noticeably whiten my teeth just after a day or two of use. I hadn't been expecting that. I felt a little self-conscious about my voice being slightly different to compensate for the device... Read More

Hey Justin! Thanks for the awesome feedback. We are so happy to hear you are already seeing and feeling the results from the aligners in your first week. It definitely takes a little time to get used to the aligners, but if you're ever feeling any discomfort, pro-tip, use that HyperByte for an extra couple minutes and it should reduce that. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions and concerns we are happy to help.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Byte! The products, the customer service, and hopefully soon the results! The quality of the product is great and you work with real orthodontists. My dentist even had all good things to say about the company when I told them.

So far I’m happy with my byte aligned! At first there were uncomfortable, and they hurt but now it’s all good! I barely even feel them throughout the day. Customer service is convenient (email/ text), and response time is smooth and accurate.

I've been in this journey for a while now and, even though it's been way longer than expected, I would still recommend Byte to anybody looking for a new smile! Their customer service is outstanding. Yes, it may take them 2-3 days to get a reply- but you will always get one. At least I always did!

Impressions were super easy. I thought it would take a lot longer to get my aligners, but they came super quick, even after the holidays. Aligners are comfortable and transitions are smooth. Much better than my experience with traditional braces. I gave four stars because customer service is a little disconnected. A different person responds each time to a thread and will ask for information I already gave. But I still get my questions answered and they are very nice. Overall, a great experience and I would highly recommend them.
