FAQs

After I purchase my Impression Kit, how long does it take to receive my aligners?

About 4-6 weeks. To make it happen ASAP, send your impressions back quickly, fill out your account center info and upload your photos. This all helps us move it along.

What if I mess up my impressions or don’t do them right?

Don’t worry! The impression kit includes 4 total putties, and all we need is one good impression of your top and bottom teeth. If you were able to get at least one of each arch, then we should be able to work with it! Go ahead and send the Impression Kit back to get your impressions reviewed. If new impressions are needed, then we'll be in touch to get you setup with a new kit.

Can I see what I’ll look like when I’m done with Byte aligners?

Yes. After we receive your impressions and other information, we’ll send you a 3D visualization of your current smile and what it could look like after your treatment with Byte aligners.

Is my Impression Kit refundable?

Your at-home impressions will give us the information we need to see if you are a good candidate for Byte treatment. If you’re not, we’ll refund the full price of the Impression Kit.

How do I know if Byte is right for me?

Byte is designed to work for minor to moderate alignment issues, including correcting spacing, crowding between teeth and rotation. Your at-home impressions will be used to determine if you’re a good candidate for Byte aligners. If you’re not, you’ll get a full refund for the price of the Impression Kit.

Can Byte aligners help with crowding?

Yes! Crowding occurs when your teeth overlap due to insufficient jaw space. It’s a very common issue that researchers say may be due to years of evolution and environmental change as our food became softer. We recommend getting started with an impression kit so that your clinical team can assess the severity of crowding and create the best treatment option for you.

Can Byte aligners help with spacing?

Yes! Spacing is when gaps exist between teeth. This can occur due to genetics, such as having smaller teeth, or due to behavioral habits, such as mouth breathing. Since spacing may differ from person to person, sending us your impressions is the best way to get custom treatment plan prescribed for your unique smile. If you do not qualify for treatment, we'll refund you the cost of the Impression Kit!

Can Byte aligners help with my overbite/underbite/crossbite?

It depends. As there is a limitation to how much clear aligners, by themselves, can move the teeth, Byte cannot fully correct an overbite, underbite, or an open bite, which would require either traditional braces, attachments, rubber bands, expanders, and in some cases, jaw surgery. Byte aligners may in some cases be able to lessen the appearance of an overbite, however, through better alignment of incisors and canine teeth. Get started with an Impression Kit so your clinical team can provide the best treatment option for you!

Can Byte aligners help with my midline?

A dental midline is the line between your two upper front teeth and your two lower front teeth. This line does not always align due to differences in tooth size, missing teeth, or chewing only on one side of your mouth. Aligners cannot correct a midline, but can improve the appearance through better alignment. Get your Impression Kit today and see what your midline could look like with our 3D model of your smile! If you are not a candidate, we’ll refund you the cost.

Can I use Byte aligners if I have veneers?

Yes! Byte can move veneers and crowns as long as they are not on your molars. See what your personalized treatment plan looks like after buying and sending back your Impression Kit! If you’re not a candidate, we’ll refund you the cost of the Impression Kit.
