Overview:
Smile Direct Club obviously isn’t a standard subscription box that we typically review but after years of not wearing my retainer, my bottom teeth decided to do their own thing and the result hasn’t been to my liking. When I had the opportunity to review their invisable aligner home service, I jumped on the chance. Smile Direct Club now offer two options for their invisable aligners – their standard Clear Aligners and their new Nighttime Clear Aligners. Compared to traditional metal braces, Smile Direct Club claims an average straightening time of 6 to 10 months at a price of $1895 or $85/month versus 18 months and $6-8K for the traditional route.
How Does Smile Direct Club Work?
To start with Smile Direct Club, you can either book a 3D image in on of their local SmileShops or you get an at-home impression kit sent to your house. Once either of those are complete, a licensed dentist or orthodontist will review your smile plan and guide your new smile remotely from beginning to end. So cool! Pretty teeth, no extra time out of my schedule? Saweet!
Once the doctors figures out the best plan of attack to straighten your teeth and you figure out which payment plans works best for your wallet, they send your clear aligners and premium whitening directly to you. Your clear aligners will come as a set of multiple aligners. As you wear them, according to the plan designed by the orthodontist or dentist on your case, each aligner will make slight adjustments to tooth position. You’ll begin wearing a new set of aligners as prescribed, advancing you to the next stage of your new straighter teeth.
Once your smile is perfect, Smile Direct Club offers retainers to help maintain the smile you love for only $99 a set.
Bonus: All Smile Direct Club customers receive complimentary bright on™ teeth whitening so you can brighten your smile while you straighten it too!
