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)

I love this aligner system! I have straighter, whiter teeth with no visit to the dentist. I got my whole treatment at one time which makes the weekly transition so smooth.

I've recently started my program and had a question about using it, contacted the company via email and got a phone within less than 24 hours from a very personable rep who was just so REAL and kind and helpful. Gave me a good feeling about the company and that they have my back when in need! Looking forward to seeing my results. :D

If I could leave no stars I would. Absolute crooks. It is sad they provide a “guarantee” and do nothing to make you satisfied. They take no accountability of their aligner treatment plan not working, and are willing to let you go on your merry way without actually straightening your teeth. They told me I’d have to pay an additional $899 on top of the $2400 I paid to fix ONLY my bottom teeth that haven’t moved even a tiny bit. Please, please do yourself a favor, save the money you will waste here and go to a real orthodontist who actually cares about your smile, confidence and the money you pour into it.

My only regret is not doing this sooner. Process was smooth and customer service was excellent. The process took a bit longer than I anticipated, but the byte team worked with me to get back on track. Overall, I am very happy with the investment and the results.

I'm about 2 weeks into my treatment, and my experience so far with Byte has been very positive. They do a great job answering questions upfront, and it's easy to follow the instructions for molding the aligners and using them once they arrive. Customer support is also very responsive. I looked at a few different options for aligners and liked that Byte was an at-home option and that I could choose nighttime only for my treatment, as my job would make it difficult to wear aligners all day.

I am currently in the middle of the byte treatment and overall am satisfied with this company. The whole process of doing the impressions and putting on the aligners was very well explained. The Hyperbyte did kind of help with the discomfort of having the aligners in your mouth which was nice. Aligners came packaged well. And so far treatment has been going pretty well. I do wish there was more availability to schedule a follow up with a clinician. It seems like every time I check the next available date is a month later from now which kind of sucks. Customer service via email is great though, but I do wish the specialists would reply back within one day. But again, overall, I am happy... Read More
