Overall Rating: 4.9 / 5 (Excellent)

Byte launched its teledentistry platform in 2018 and has since enjoyed remarkable growth in the invisible aligner market. The company's low-cost, convenient at-home offering, and doctor-directed treatment make Byte an attractive option for patients who need mild to moderate orthodontic alignment.


 To get started, patients order an at-home impression kit or schedule a free in-office scan with a Byte-affiliated dentist. If your teeth qualify, you'll see a 3D model of your future smile before purchasing your aligners.


 Whether you start at home or with an in-office scan, your impressions will be reviewed to determine if you are a good fit for Byte invisible aligners. But don’t worry! If your teeth do not qualify for treatment, Byte will refund your money⎯no questions asked.

Byte Product Specs

Aligner Specifications - 5 / 5

Byte offers patients 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 straighter alignment. To qualify for treatment, consumers complete an impression mold of their teeth at home or schedule an in-office scan with a Byte affiliated dentist. If the patient's teeth qualify for treatment, these digital scans are used to generate a custom treatment plan. Customers can see a 3D model of what their smile could look like after 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 set of retainers is provided to retain the alignment (recommended 6-month wear time)

Getting started was really easy! I really enjoyed previewing my treatment before investing in it. That way I could see how long it would take overall & how my teeth were supposed to look week after week. Support responses could be quicker to understand , but other than that it's been a great service!

Overall my experience has been as expected. Given that their team is pretty busy I've generally received delayed responses and have had to follow up with their customer support. I also haven't had the easiest experience with the retainers in that the timeline has been generally off where I'm wearing my retainers for multiple weeks before changing due to fit.

I did my research on all the major teeth straightening companies (i.e. Smile Direct Club, Byte, Candid, and Invisalign) and I decided to go with Byte based on price, reviews, treatment length, credentials, and lifetime smile guarantee. I'm on week 13 of 21 and I am overall happy with my experience thus far. Customer service has been great. I found it best to call when I need support because email takes a while for them to respond and I can never get connected to anyone via the online chat. The aligners are comfortable and well-made. I only had some mild pain during my first week, but nothing more since. My only complaint with Byte is that the aligners case they provide is really hard to... Read More

I have been using Byte nighttime aligners for about 10 weeks now. My treatment is supposed to take 17 weeks for the top, and 24 for the bottom. So far, I’m thrilled with the results! Since I have the nighttime aligners, I am free to eat, drink, chew gum, etc throughout the day. Then I just pop my aligners in at night, use my HyperByte for 10 minutes, and go to bed. Sometimes the HyperByte can be painful, and sometimes the aligners can be a bit inconvenient if I want to go out at night, but these minor inconveniences are so worth it! Byte customer service is incredible, and I’m thrilled with the results I’m seeing.

I used to use SmileDirectClub and the retainers were uncomfortable and cheap feeling. They also charged me a lot for my retainers at the end. Byte's whitening foam is a genius and painless way to whiten my teeth while cleaning my retainers. The comfy retainers feel great and the service is even better! Would recommend Byte over SmileDirectClub.
