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.

I had researched about a lot of teeth aligner companies and finally went with Byte because of its most number of positive reviews. And, I'd say that I'm very happy with my choice. I can really see the results. The gaps in my teeth are almost gone. Their team is very responsive and they regularly checked in with me about my progress. I'd surely recommend Byte to anyone.

I was happy with my aligners and byte service until i went to order my retainers. After wearing them for 12 weeks i was told they were too loose. It took them almost a month to get back to me and they have just now sent me a new impression kit. When that arrives they will make me new aligners. I don't know how much time this will add to my treatment. Also i am told to keep wearing my same week 13 aligners, but the top one is already cracked.

I received the aligners as promised. My main issues were not resolved in the treatment time frame. Three of my aligner trays cracked with regular use. I did follow treatment guidelines with length of wear each day. Customer service is usually excellent. The policy is that if not satisfied with results or if teeth revert to poor dentition then retreating is gratis. However, expect no bells or whistles with the second round.

I am 5 weeks into my 6 month treatment. Love that I only have to wear my aligners at night. So far every set is tight the first few nights, but by the time every week it is to change to the next one- there is no discomfort. Everything is packaged well and there have been no need to file down or adjust any aligners and no digging into gums. So far having a great experience!

I am almost done with my treatment and I am so excited to finish in two weeks! This system was so easy, fast and affordable. I have had several people ask me about my teeth and say how straight and white they are getting. I have already referred a few friends and I am so excited they are purchasing because this truly was amazing! I feel so much better about my smile and I can wait to see the final results! The support and customer service has been great and I would highly recommend this product. This was not painful and you can easily pop the aligners out to eat. I had a few times where I had a ache jaw which is totally normal and Advil helped with that.
