Great consult

By Andrew N., Lancaster, PA, Verified Reviewer

I've been looking for a quicker and cheaper way to fix the gap in my teeth, and this looked like a good opportunity. Had my first consult and had 3D images of my teeth taken and photos. I worked with Amy and she could not have been more helpful. In fact, everyone in the office that I interacted with was super helpful and very nice.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great start to a new smile!

By Liz D., California, Verified Reviewer

My daughter had her 1st appointment today to get her 3D scan. Brittany from Bus #2 was absolutely amazing! Friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable!

Better than an orthodontist during Covid times

By S T. , White Plains, NY

Great service - explained the process thoroughly, addressed the needs and questions from the initial scan through the end. The online and text support is great when we have issues on weekends or late nights.

Length of Use: 3–6 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Convenience - don’t have to deal with hassle of appointments for regular office visits as in the case of getting braces tightened

Track plan and progress online

Not much interaction with the dentist or orthodontist

If you are wearing the aligners daily rather than nightly, it’s a major upkeep when eating - must brush before inserting back

Frequent cleaning of aligners adds to additional cost since you can’t use paste and brush on the plastic - need to be soaked like dentures

We are grinning from ear to ear. Thank you for the support. We are always here for you!

Employee staff Adrianna

By Sahara S., San Diego, CA, Verified Reviewer

I had gone to SmileDirectClub back in February. I met with the sweetest person ever, her name is Adrianna. We connected on a deep level. She was super generous, very accommodating, and understanding. I met with other staff, but Adrianna blew me away with her generosity and character. She made me feel like I was making the right choice, especially when I'm very insecure about my smile. Adrianna gets 5 stars, but the company gets 3 for these reasons.

Whether you choose SmileDirectClub, I do say you should check that out with your primary dentist first and have your own personal X-rays because SmileDirectClub doesn't actually do a deep X-ray, they only get a good visual of your smile and not your jaw and beyond that which can be dangerous if your smile needs a major fix. If it's a minor fix like myself, however, still get it checked out with your primary dentist, check for cavities and see if SmileDirectClub is for you.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Adrianna was very accommodating, made me feel very welcomed compared to other staff

Cheaper

Less time to wear it, great for people who have mild things they want to change about their smile

It was too fast, felt like it was too simple and that can be dangerous for someone who does not have mild tooth errors

X-ray was not really an x-ray, just a visual of your smile and not your jaw bone like other orthodontics do, can be dangerous for mild or even major changes to teeth

Won't check for cavities or tooth infections, YOU need to that yourself before hand to save your self the trouble and pain
