About Candid

As of the end of 2023, Candid ceased all direct-to-consumer clear aligner products and services, and is no longer associated with this profile. In the two years following the announcement, Candid assisted customers who had purchased aligner kits in completing their treatments, obtaining refunds and beginning retention. The final day to purchase retainers as a direct-to-consumer customer was March 8th, 2024. Candid no longer provides aligners, retainers, treatment accessories, dental records or refunds to direct-to-consumer customers. Those seeking clear aligners or retainers manufactured by Candid should work with a dental provider who uses their CandidPro product.

    I purchased Candid under the impression that I would have my teeth brought together and I would have a nice smile and that eventually I would not have to wear the trays anymore. Instead I have been in pain for months with swollen gums that will not go down unless I take off the trays but I cannot take off the trays because my teeth start to move as soon as I take them off for longer than an hour or so. My teeth are bent inward in my mouth so when I smile my teeth are not straight up and down. What I got is not what I paid for.

    Candid was a lot cheaper than other companies and it was affordable. When I started my daughter there, there was a promotion of $300 off. The process was quick and it was better than pulling teeth because she would have gotten the metal braces. She would have had to have five teeth pulled. At first, I didn’t think Candid was going to work but I’ve noticed a big difference in my daughter. My daughter had crowding at the top and at the bottom and by prom time, her teeth were straightened out. She loves her smile and she has been smiling more.

    I do some video work and one of the things that was bothering me was my crooked teeth. I hated seeing them on the videos. I wanted to have a straighter smile. I went with Candid for their price and working with them was very good. They followed up a lot, both through over the phone and through email. I was unaware of what the next steps were and how to do it. When I reached out with questions, the rep gave very prompt responses. The only bump in the road that I had was a billing issue where it came about that they were having trouble with the insurance. I was initially told that it wasn't going to work out as far as billing goes, but I spoke to some managers, and they made it right.

    They gave me the price that they quoted me and they took it back on the insurance portion of it, which I thought was the right thing to do. Still, they went above and beyond. I was very satisfied with them. I'm finished with the process and I'm very happy with the results. I'm a lot more confident and a lot more comfortable. Now, one of the things I like about watching the videos is seeing a straighter smile. I’d recommend Candid. My son is going to need braces at some point, and we might go the route of Candid and forego the braces.

    I went into Candid's shop in Boston and got fitted. The process took 10 months for me. It was painful and I had to push myself through it but it was worth it. The results are phenomenal and I would recommend their product to anyone. I'm on my last retainer and anytime I miss it my teeth shift. When I put the retainers back in, it's pretty painful. I've looked into whether there is a final retainer that I can get and it's $99.

    I was a thumb sucker and I had one tooth in the front that was more bucked off than the rest of them. That's mainly what I wanted to fix. I checked with a friend who was training to be a dentist, she was in dental school. She said that it needed to be managed by an orthodontist. Candid advertised that so I went with them. The process was clear, concise, and easy. I was surprised that the people with Candid didn't check in more often. They emailed every time I was supposed to change aligners. But I thought there would be a phone call asking me how is it going or if there are any problems. I called about a month after and asked if I need to be checking in with them. The lady said no and that they're here if I have any problems. I'm pretty happy. I keep on wearing them at night and if I keep doing that, the tooth will get where I want it to be. Candid is definitely worth it. I love my new smile.

    I’d been complaining about my teeth having drifted from when they were perfect in my youth and I wasn't sure I wanted to spend the money on Invisalign. Then, I saw the ad for Candid and researched it. I realized how relatively inexpensive it was, which was what got me started. Their service was great and it turned out to be, most importantly, a good product that got the job done as advertised. They sent me an initial kit with this little funky thing to open up my mouth to take pictures and submit to them to make sure I was a good candidate. They got back to me right on schedule. I was told I was a candidate and that they were gonna send me a kit in the mail where I could do detailed molds. I sent them the molds. Then, they sent me the box and clear instructions of how to use it, where I put in a new set every two weeks.

    It was entirely virtual and flawless. I was able to do all that in what I would normally expect to be something that I would go in and be meeting with a dental professional in person. I was a little hesitant because it was all online but their service was awesome. I had some questions early on and I ended up financing it. I got on the line with a guy and he was extremely helpful. His service was great. I appreciated talking to somebody that wasn't in an offshore call center in India whose name was supposedly Bob and could understand what he was saying.

    My kid's teeth are fixed already as well as my wife’s, and it was time for me to fix the overlap in my teeth. I knew there was Invisalign but I had to look for a cheaper option. I found Candid online and I liked that they did everything over the phone. I didn’t have to go to an office and do all that jazz with the doctor. I got on the phone, they sent me the kit and I sent it in to tell them yes or no. It was cut and dry. I got management and I was very happy with the results.

    In the beginning, I was thinking if they were taking my money or not because it took about two months for me to get my aligners. But once I got them, just every other month, I would get a call to make sure everything was okay. I was missing some stuff in the kit and they fixed it. They sent me the stuff right away. The process was simple, with the app reminding you to change them out and you put them in. It was probably the first two changes where it hurt a little bit but after that, the pain wasn't even noticeable. At the very end, I went back and I saw where my smile was and where it is now. And it was a big change. I recommend Candid to everybody who is asking for it. I tell them and I give them my code so I can get the gift card.

    I'm in my early 50s and I never had braces. My front and bottom teeth were crowding to the point where they were chipping. I already paid to have my top teeth repaired from a big chip and then my bottom ones cracked. I wanted to prevent future chipping. Plus, I wanted to look better. I'm very happy with the overall process and the results with Candid. With the phone app, I was able to see the video of my teeth every step of the way. It was really cool to see the scan of my mouth and then how it changed each week. I would revisit that all the time to see what I could expect. It really made sense too. I like that the most.

    At the end, I got an email saying what to do. It was nice that every two weeks, I would get an email saying, "Time to change your aligner." But when it came to wean down to my final set and how many hours a day I was supposed to be wearing it, I missed any email communication. I didn't get any regular like, "Okay, now it's done. Time to go down to this many hours or that many hours." So that would be a spot to improve. But I'm glad I did it. Compared to all the other ones out there, Candid was affordable and professional. The technology was top-notch.

    I looked at Invisalign and they couldn't work with me because of some of the gum recession that I had. I decided to see whether or not Candid couldn't. My teeth were crooked and my front teeth were set far forward, so it made it so that I didn't have a front bite. I've been incredibly happy I finished all of my first treatment. One of the things that they do very right for their customers is that if it's within six weeks after you finish your treatment, if you're concerned with something, you can contact them and they'll send your case to the orthodontists and discuss anything that you might be concerned with. Then if they decide to do more trays, you're not charged more.

    My initial treatment had 20 trays, which took 40 weeks, and the bite on my front teeth was great and my straightened teeth were amazing. However, my back teeth weren't lining up exactly how I felt like they should, it didn't feel quite right. I called Candid and told them about it. They said they would send me some impressions, that I should take it then send it to them, and they would have the orthodontist take a look. I did that and sent some in and they said that it wasn't quite right. They would send it to the board and the board would review it then they would let me know whether or not they could help out further. It took about six weeks in total. But they got back to me.

    Long story short, not only have they sent me another 10 treatments, so it'd be another 20 weeks of treatment to try and fix the situation with my back teeth so my bite would be better. They also added on the remote monitoring, which usually cost a significant amount more, so that the orthodontist could monitor my progress more closely, and it didn't cost me a single penny more. They've pretty much redid all of my treatment but it was all included in my initial cost. My new smile is great, just my new bite is a work in progress. Nonetheless, I would absolutely recommend them.

    I had a retainer when I was younger but I wasn't religious about wearing it all the time at night. I knew that things could get shifted back, but as you get older, your whole face kind of becomes a little bit more narrow. I needed to do something because I hated dental floss. I’m in my early 60s and dental flossing was really problematic. I was having a hard time flossing between my teeth.

    My daughter and son-in-law were doing some research and they tipped me off on Candid. They both got Candid, and then I got it too. It was affordable. I went in and had a consultation in the office, and then they got me started. I'm very happy with Candid. It was an excellent experience. The only concern I have is that it wasn't till the final stages of which then I finally saw the tooth kind of engage with where it should be. There was one area of my teeth that didn't get there all the way. But overall, I was 92% satisfied with the whole thing. I hope that things will stay in a permanent place. I do wear the retainer at night.

    They took a picture of my profile but I couldn’t gain access to it. So I asked them to resend it again, and they did. But every two weeks, they send me a reminder to change it up, and that’s what I do. It was a pretty straightforward process. It worked for me, but I don’t think it can work for everybody. It all depends upon how the teeth come down from the gums, and it could be more difficult for others. My son wanted to get it but his teeth are not quite positioned as well as mine were. But during that time, there was COVID, and they sent him a video on how to do things, including getting his impressions. He wasn’t comfortable with doing it remotely, so he didn’t proceed with it.

    The visual process being laid out to a patient so that they could see every two weeks where the movement was to be taking place was very helpful. They had to first expand the palette and then they were able to shift things in place. I’ve gone to my dentist here in Newton and they said my teeth look beautiful. I have plenty of space now between my teeth so I can floss.

    They had a brick and mortar near me where I could walk to and they did the 3D molding for me. I didn't have to do it at home and possibly mess up and send it in and send it back. I had a crooked tooth, but my entire smile wasn't crooked. It was kind of a waste of money to get braces. Going with Candid was a faster option. It was more affordable. It gave me a different look. The process wasn't difficult but sociall, it's not the best. If you go out, you can't wear them, especially if you eat. I wish it came with a cleansing kit or something that you could have while you were out. I have to wear it 22 hours a day, and you're out and about and functioning majority of those hours.

    I ended up having a root canal so I had to stop wearing them. I was very close to the end but there was no follow up. When it was time for me to be done, I received an email but I had to call them and say, “Hey, I'm going to be done soon. What about a retainer?” But there was not a good process for getting a retainer. It was apparently extra. I would still have to slowly continue my process over time, but there was still no retainer.

I wanted to get aligners and Candid was the first option that I saw. I kept seeing the commercial. I decided to try and go for it. Plus, it was a free consultation and there was no compromise. If you like it, you continue and if not, you can go away. If I would have known about aligners back when I did my braces in 2011, maybe I would’ve done that instead of my braces.

    I purchased the Candid Co. Impression Kit on Black Friday last year in 2019. It took a while, but I received and started my treatment in January of 2020. This treatment took eight months to complete. My teeth, however, did not move correctly at the end, and so they sent me another impression kit to re-do my treatment process. I only needed one, perhaps two teeth fixed in the correct position, and I’d be set to go. I sent in these re-do impressions back at the beginning of September. It is now almost December, and I have yet to receive any new treatment. The Candid Support stated, and I quote, “ If your orthodontist determines that you would benefit from an additional treatment plan, you will be receiving that from us via email in the next two weeks.”

    Two weeks have passed, and I have called them, to which they responded that the treatment would be expected in 2-3 days. 4 had passed given, and I call them again, this time another Candid manager said to expect within a week and an extra three weeks to print out my aligners. A week has passed, and another manager stated that it would come in 2-3 days, “give or take.” Three days passed, and I call for the fourth time. Another care manager stated they didn’t want to give an estimate of when to expect it to come because it would give me false hope and that the aligners would take within a week to print out. That call was last week. And yet, I have still heard nothing. I don’t mind if this process takes a very long time, but I do mind when there is very inconsistent information being passed around.

    Overall, Candid Co. needs to rapidly provide new treatment plans to patients that have already received a plan that didn’t work out. A customer that has received the wrong order and is already impatient requires more attention than new customers. This because they have already paid for your service and it didn’t work out the first time. My senior pictures are coming up in December, and I had wished to have a perfect smile by then. Sadly, I feel less confident in my smile now than last year and have stopped smiling with my teeth.

    I had wanted to get braces for cosmetic reasons 10 years ago and never did ‘cause it was expensive. My mom saw Candid advertised on a social media platform. When I realized that this was gonna be only an eight month thing and it'd be a little less expensive than braces that my parents are paying for it, I tried it. Their customer service was good. I got to their office and filled out a questionnaire, and they took 3D images of my teeth and showed it to me. It seemed very quick. I received an email from the orthodontist saying that this was what they were gonna send to me and that I qualified.

    I got the box in the mail and started using it, but I wasn't trusting. I could have stayed in touch better with them with my questions, but I was just, "Well, I'm just gonna do this and see how it goes." The process took seven to eight months and it was simple. It was all done efficiently and I was able to see changes quickly, 'cause it was such a short time. I definitely am happy with my smile now and I don't think they could have done a better job than they did as far as how I straightened my teeth. There were times when my bite felt a little misaligned during the process and that freaked me out, but it righted itself. It has always felt different ever since the beginning, but I adjusted to it at this point and it’s fine.

    I had a great experience with Candid. I ended them on the last week of July and my teeth turned out great. It was perfect. It was just before my wedding and I had to have nice teeth. I am currently wearing my last aligners at night. The thing that could have been done better was checking up on how things were going. For me, getting phone calls or texts would have helped. I never received much contact other than through an email, but that was on me. That was my bad, not checking it. It was crazy how it was very virtual and I never met my orthodontist. It feels a little distant in that way. I don't know for everybody if it works that way, but their product works and I wanna recommend it. I like my teeth a lot.

    I liked Candid's marketing piece. I got a direct mail coupon. I had braces when I was in high school, and then I didn't wear my retainers. I had a decent smile, but the top was a little narrow, and the bottom and the front was a little bit crowded. So, I felt like going with something like Candid would be a pretty easy way to fix that. I loved the process and the results with Candid.

    My experience using Candid was exactly what they said it would be. It was super easy to follow along. I didn’t have any problems with the timeline at all and I was really happy with the result. My only negative is I tried to participate in the referral program, and they said that the person I referred to them ended up using a different coupon. They ended up using them and are using them today and they're super happy, too, but I didn't get anything out of the referral. So, that was a little bit disappointing.

    I had braces in middle school and I have not been adherent to a retainer compliance plan. So, my teeth separated with gaps here and there. Candid's price was very competitive compared to Invisalign, Smile Direct Club, and all other competitors. There was more discomfort early in the process than what I was expecting. There was also a little discomfort each time I changed over. But, I got used to it as I went through their program. I was very happy with the results.

    Candid was great. I went to a storefront in downtown San Francisco. A very kind and welcoming staff was there. A woman helped me get acclimated to the area. She used a probe in my mouth and wandered through my mouth and built a 3D model of my mouth with that probe. She walked me through the process of what she was doing and showed me the model after she built it.

    Fixing my teeth was important to me because I had had braces when I was younger and never used the retainer, so my teeth went back to the way they were. And I'm very happy with the results from Candid. I went with them mostly due to the cost. The process was excellent. It took about 18 months ‘cause I had crooked teeth. What I love is the fact that I'm using the last ones to keep my teeth straight. I also have a tendency of grinding my teeth, so this is a double thing for me because it's actually helping me as well as keeping me from grinding my teeth. Also, I like the fact that should. I need another last set, I can contact them and they'll send me another set, I'll have to pay for them but they'll send it to me. They have my record and they have the final set so I can always replace them.

    I was comparing Candid, Invisalign and another one. Candid was one of the ones that stood out to me a little bit more on the versatility that they have as far as the people and how fast you'll receive it, how you could do it at home and you bring the kit and how easy it was. There was no real pressure. I don't have to come and keep coming in to switch out my trays. I love that it was so easy for me to do things on my own. I work in an office setting, so I need to be able to use most of my time in the office. I don't really have a flexibility to go into an actual dental office to pick up one tray. I did bring the whole treatment home and be able to do my treatment amongst myself and see the changes and pretty much watch my teeth transition to the smile that I want. I did like that.

    The process was a little painful. I didn't have overlapping teeth. I just had two gaps. So, it was a little uncomfortable in the beginning, but then it tightens off. Candid is good. The service was amazing. The women that helped me open up the actual account to start my treatments were great. The environment was very clean. No one ever called me, though, so I could get my retainer. Because of COVID, they were closed for a little bit, but they reopened. But I would definitely suggest and refer other people to them if they were looking to make their smile a little bit more appealing.

    I had some crowding. There was an overlap between my front two teeth. There were some spacing issues towards the back of my teeth as well. I went on to the Candid website and I saw that there was actually a studio, because I knew you could have your own aligner kit, or you could go into a studio. I wanted to go to the studio, and I found out that there was one in Dallas, so I did that. I did a bit of research and I liked that the plans are designed by orthodontists rather than dentists, that are actually more specialized in teeth movement.

    The first few weeks were painful, but that's expected. After that was every two weeks changing them out. Everything was labeled. I liked that you had your kit. They told you all your stuff, and they gave you the chewies, the whitening treatment and everything came with the kit. That was nice. Not having to have braces was great. And just being able to do the clear aligners was awesome. I'm happy with the results. My teeth are straight and I love it. I love my smile. It has been a huge confidence booster.

    I followed the plan diligently and then had a second "refinement" phase, at the end of which I could hardly chew. Cosmetically, my teeth looked better, but my bite was unworkable, which was apparent from my impression molds and the 3D rendering I saw online. I continued to wear my retainers in hopes of improvement, but none came. I consulted with two local orthodontists, both of whom said I had to go back to zero and do a whole 18-24-month course of treatment ($6,000+). I stopped wearing my retainers and my bite improved to the point that I can now eat comfortably. My smile is marginally better than originally, but I went through a lot of expense and discomfort to end up essentially where I started.

    I'm getting married. And I wanted to have straight teeth before the wedding. I had braces when I was younger and all my teeth just shifted back. Because they hurt so much to put my retainer in at the end of the day when I was a teenager, I just stopped wearing it. So all my teeth shifted again. I started with Candid at the end of January and I was done in June. About a month, it took a couple of sessions for me to start noticing my teeth shifting. I enjoyed the experience as much as you could enjoy all that pressure on your teeth. But it was a really easy experience and I love the whitening foam. My teeth are the whitest they've ever been.

But this time around, everything was definitely easier. My teeth came out better than they did before with the Smile Direct. When I initially went in to Candid, me and my mother were both really wowed by how informative the consultation was. I got a lot of details and they made a lot of promises that they did fulfill. So, it was a big difference with Smile Direct Club. Some of my aligners hadn't fit me too well. Some of them were loose. Some of them I felt like were in the wrong order. But overall, it's okay.

    I was trying to look up aligners for myself because I used to have braces and I got them off too early when I went to study abroad. Then my teeth were shifting. My two front teeth will twist if they go back to their original state, and then the two to the right and left of them sort of pushed in. I don't want people to say, "Ugh, you have braces? We can tell." Then I'm already self-conscious as it is about my smile, so to not be self-conscious anymore would be great. I saw that Candid had a pop-up in Oakland, and so I went there. I got it done in person because I wouldn't have been able to do it, being now, I would've ruined it. I like that Candid works with real orthodontists.

    It's my own fault that I didn't wear my aligner longer, but I still am smiling with these teeth. My two front teeth are straight again. The ones to the right and left of them are mostly pushed back out. But I didn't wear them for the last 22 hours of the day when stuff shut down because I was working online virtually and stress-eating. So, I never had my aligners on. But for when I did wear them, which was at night, it did the job. It did the trick to make me less insecure about my smile.

    Candid has a super simple process. I love the fact that I got everything at once versus at my door each month. The responsibility just falls on the person. And so, I fell off when stuff shut down, but that's because it was a pandemic and I was stressed out. But other than that, it was good. Candid's customer service is solid. I broke one of my retainers when I was in boot camp. I called them, and I got it like five days later. Using Candid is easy if you follow every step. It is on you at the end of the day.

    I had braces as a teenager for a while and after not wearing retainers for a decade or more later, I had some gaps. That didn't bother me so much aesthetically, but I got a lot of food stuck there. My dentist recommended tightening my gaps, so I looked into it. I’ve seen comparable companies, but Candid had the right deal at the right time. They offered a good military discount. They also had a very straightforward process. They send you the kit to take the impressions of your teeth, you mail it in and they get back to you. You also have to take photos. After they receive back the impressions, they communicate with you, which is like a consultation, and they discuss what exactly they could do for you.

    They scan the molds to get the rendering of your teeth and then they send you a 3D rendering, which was cool. The animation showed the step-by-step process from each adjustment from where you're at and where it'll finish. There’s good visual on that. With the packaging and the whole consumer friendliness, they made things easy to do and easy to understand. When they send you the retainers, they use a filing system that’s color-coded and has dates. They also send email reminders to let you know when you're supposed to change over.

    It was a nine month process and I was worried about whether or not I would have the self-discipline to follow through, but I didn't have to think about it too much. The retainers that they send you are the exact same retainers that you get right after having braces for the first time, so it was familiar. It wasn't always comfortable using them, but having had orthodontic work removed the intimidation factor. Their product was well-made. The adjustments were small enough that it was never overbearingly painful. I'm perfectly satisfied with my smile.

    I've always hated the way my teeth look. When I was younger, my parents didn't want to spend the money on fixing them because it wasn't a huge issue. I was looking into multiple options as far as straightening my teeth. Candid popped up on my Facebook ‘cause they were running some sort of promo on the starter kit for the molds. So that's how I first started hearing about it. And then once I was into it, and saw that you could do a consultation in San Diego since I only live about 40 minutes from there, I figure that was my best bet. And it was also the cheapest out of everything that I found.

    The process went very smoothly. I went on a weekday. It was a little weird because Candid was in a building that didn't really work on the weekdays. So it was a little confusing at first. Otherwise, everyone was very polite. The consultation went very well. Everything was very effortless as far as how stressful some of those things can be sometimes. Everyone was able to answer any questions I had. Everyone was always very straightforward in the answers, and what I was to expect is going into it. Towards the end, I ended up losing my Step 14. So I ended up having to wait to get a step reshipped to me, and then they ended up sending me a permanent retainer instead. So I had to wait even longer to get that step. I ended up falling behind a little bit in my plan. But now, I feel pretty confident with my smile.

My only complaints are that no one tells you that it hurts really bad when your teeth are being moved (to the point where you can hardly eat anything) and when contacting help through Candid, they suggest you go to an orthodontist (when an orthodontist is the one who created my teeth trays).

I got braces years ago when the rule was you wear your retainers for a year, and then you toss them. That clearly did not happen for me because my wisdom teeth finally came, and they went even more crooked than before. So I wanted to fix them.

    For 1,800 bucks, the process took less than four months. They look substantially better than they did before. I've also noticed that I don't have as many headaches as I used to, which was a lovely side effect. So I'm very happy with it. I even told my wife that she should do it too.

The retainers came when they said they would and everything went as planned.

And they fit perfectly as well as all of the rest of them. They also have a promotion when you came in to their locations and they gave me an extra discount, which was awesome.

    My teeth were a bit crooked and traditional braces are very expensive. I was looking for an alternative and Candid seemed very friendly at the time. Plus, they have a location nearby. So far, I'm very happy with the results and my new smile is what I was looking for. I've also been more confident with it.

    The Candid reviews were really good and it was a very affordable alternative to Invisalign or even the others that are out there. I had 20 sets for 40 weeks. First, you do your prints, and then you send it off. I got all my sets of the aligners and every two weeks, you switch to a newer, tighter version. Eventually, I was done. It's a very easy, quick process. Overall, I can recommend Candid. I've had some distance in my front teeth since I was a child and I wanted it fixed. Now, it's a lot better.

    Candid seemed like the only better offer. I wanted to make my teeth straighter and to close the gap. I was satisfied with the results. Candid should be teaming with people to put in brackets in the back of your teeth, you don’t have to wear the same set, the last set every day. Sometimes I don’t like putting it in, and my teeth hurt for the next few days if I don’t put it in every day.

    I noticed a slight change in my teeth over time. Once my plan was over, my teeth were still not straight. I contacted Candid because I didn't have another aligner to "move onto" as instructed by the orthodontist. They told me they had a refining plan and would send a new impressions kit to start a new plan. Never received a new kit, and my teeth basically look the same as when I started. Definitely not worth shelling out the couple grand for.

    It has been a great experience using Candid. The only complaint that I have is around the lack of clarity around the final stage of the process. The app does not take you beyond the final tray and into the retainer process. That would have been really helpful to know how many days/hours you should wear your retainer and schedule check in time as each other step of the process.

    Candid is scientific and cut and dry. The hardest part about their process was taking pictures of my mouth. After that, it was very simple. The molds were made and sent off. I got a really cool computer program that showed how my teeth looked over time on a slide. It was very predictable, neat and mapped out which was comforting.

    I got a beautiful box that was very organized. They sent me an email telling me what my steps were. I wore my set as I was supposed to every two weeks and they didn't make me very sore. Using it was kind of fun. I'm much happier with my smile now. I'm looking older so it's exciting to make myself look better. I recommend Candid.

    My overall experience has been good. I went to the Atlanta office for my initial consultation. The overall experience was really good, minus the fact that they will say anything positive (even when inaccurate) in order to get the sale.My a ligners took quite a bit of time to get delivered to me from the initial consult; but once they got there, I was able to start right away.

    Half way through I signed up for dental monitoring, it is just another way for Candid to make money. The process is faster, because now you get to change aligners in 10 days instead of 2 weeks. But I question if the ortho reviewing your scan is really looking at your file or if he just sends the generic messages from the system. The reason I say this:

    1. Messages are typically the same, and you can tell they are machine generates.
    2. I reached the end of my initial treatment and CLEARLY had lots of gaps and bite issue; instead of telling right away from the last scan I sent that I needed a refinement. The message from the DM app, just said to move to the next tray (when I had none left) and the app itself said I completed my treatment.

    3. I had to contact Candid, fill out a form for refinement, then take the same pictures as I did for my scan, so that the Ortho can determine if I need a refinement (spoiler alert, I needed a refinement).

    To me the dental monitoring is a scam, because they should've been able to tell from my last scan, that they needed to automatically send me the refinement paperwork AND the molds for new trays. This resulted in me waiting over 2 months to continue the process. I have one tray left from my refinement, and I can already tell that I will need more trays, as I still have gaps and my bite is not closing properly. I wish they would be more accurate with the trays they send.

Really misleading and poor customer support. If you're going to have a product that is handled almost exclusively online, you need to have a website for users of your product, not just marketing materials. I'm really disappointed; I would not have paid $2000 if I had known this is how you "support" your clients.

    I was pleased with the candid system. My bottom teeth are still slightly crooked, but I can live with that. Candid never really did any follow up on my progress during treatment. I thought they would ask for progress pictures, but they did not. My retainers were delivered promptly. Since then, I have order another set of retainers and those were delivered promptly too. I would recommend Candid.

    The treatment got delayed and I am very unhappy about that. The aligners that I got in the first place was not fitting properly, then I reached out to Candid and told them about the fitting issue and they told me that I needed to get new aligners. I went to the NYC for that and did the scan. They told me that I needed to wear the same last aligners until I get the new treatment plan. And guess what, I will have to wait another 5 weeks to get the new treatment plan. It's a waste of time. This should have been corrected in the first place. I wasted my time. I am very unhappy about this. I should've picked another company. I'm disappointed with Candid. I thought Candid was more professional than the others.

    This is in regard to irreparable tissue damage to my gum line that could have been avoided had the proper steps been followed by Candid. Had an actual orthodontist reviewed my weekly scans; had a human being reviewed my scans, they would have known that something was wrong. Meanwhile I just kept getting the same feedback on my app.

    My various omnichannel requests of Candid for their help and feedback have gone unanswered. In app messaging, emails and phone calls go unanswered. I have the receipts from a community Facebook post, showing Candid would be speaking with leadership and someone would be in touch. No one has. I have contacted Candid and still nothing. The company continues to send wildly absurd and contradicting emails about where I am in my treatment (why am I getting emails about “time to get started” and see if I am a candidate?). I have been a patient/customer since the start of the year. In short, this company sells a high value product and service, but delivers a very different experience that directly contradicts the company mission and values. Still waiting, Rachel.

    I went for my initial scan at the end of last November and started my treatment plan January 4th. Around step 14, something wasn't right with my bottom teeth not moving, and the aligners bent. I had to get refinements but because of Covid the local office closed. So I had to send in impressions and even had to get another kit and a virtual meeting to make sure I did them right. Got my refinements at the beginning of October with 6 more steps to get me where I need to be. With the obstacles with covid, I am still very happy with the process.

    The price is the most enticing, compared to some of the other aligner options. I had to do my initial imprint 3 times before the optometrist could get a good mold. No cost to me, that was great. The equipment given was great, however the explanation of the process, how to use the equipment and get good results were not as transparent and I had to look up info on my own. The last step is your retainer and USE THE GUMMIES. They are crucial to good results.

    At first I thought Candid was great because their packaging and interface are so cool and user-friendly. But by the time I got to the last step of treatment, my bite was misaligned. My back teeth weren't touching and I wasn't able to chew on my back teeth and I had terrible headaches. When I reached out to Candid about this they were very slow to respond. After spending hours per week via iChat b/c I couldn't get them on the phone, and after 5 weeks of waiting for them to ship me an impressions kit (because the stores were closed due to Covid) I finally had a new impression kit to take new molds of my teeth for reassessment.

    At that point I was so disgusted w/ Candid for their disorganization, unprofessionalism, lack of transparency, and poor communication that I didn't want to continue treatment with them. I saw that they had many complaints like mine w/ the Better Business Bureau, and I told them I wanted to finish my treatment somewhere else, that I didn't trust them, and that I wanted my money back or I would call the better business bureau. They gave me a full refund, thankfully.

    I did follow up in person with a local orthodontist and he said that if he practiced that way that Candid practices he would lose his license. When Candid evaluates you, they send you a 3D time-lapse digital animation of how your teeth will correct through their steps of treatment. I showed this animation to the local orthodontist and he said that this type of change is impossible. It shows the treatment as moving the bones of the jaw which is not possible. He told me that the treatment that I had received from Candid was unstable, and if I stopped wearing the aligners my teeth would shift back to the position they were in before treatment. He said that if I wanted my bite to correct, I should stop wearing the aligners. So that's what I did, and my teeth shifted back in a few weeks.

    It's been about 3-4 months since I stopped wearing the aligners and my bite is back to normal and my teeth are as they were before I started with Candid. There was no lasting damage to my teeth or my jaw, so I'm fine. It was just a giant waste of time and very stressful worrying that I had damaged my teeth, but I'm ok now. I think I paid the other orthodontist about $300 to Xray and evaluate me, but I got all my money back from Candid so it wasn't too expensive to correct it, and I'm just glad it's behind me.

    First off, I was amazed at the friendliness and efficiency of the Candid staff on Newbury Street in downtown Boston. The whole experience beyond that was all so easy and effective that I have really no complaints. Even the payment (6 installments, no interest) was easy. I'd highly recommend Candid.

    I was delighted with the customer service, how easy it was to use your product, and the price of it was affordable. However, I only wish I had a few more steps for my teeth, since they are not fully straightened out. I don’t know if you do that to make sure the teeth fit in the mouth or it just wasn't recommend for my program.

    I had an overall good experience with Candid. The set up was super quick and easy at their studio. I would say that I took off one star because I still have one bottom tooth that is not fully straight even after the 6+ months of my aligner plan. The whitening/cleaning foam also caused my teeth to get very sensitive so I had to stop using.

    I have been impressed with the alignment of my top teeth but have been having issues with my bottom teeth. The aligners have been shifting a single tooth out of place and twisting it at a slight angle. On my 3rd series of aligners, I was given the DM equipment and was hoping that with the careful watch of an Orthodontist, the process would be successful. I was wrong. The tooth is still out of place and the last series of aligners didn't help. I am about to do my 4th impressions for Candid which is slightly annoying. I personally cannot recommend Candid to anyone.

    I had braces twice growing up. I made the worst mistake in not using my retainers. As I grew older my teeth shifted significantly. I had hoped to fix it before my wedding but got sidetracked. Once the world paused for CV in 2020, I was taking many meetings from home - constantly looking at myself on Zoom. I was now faced with my crooked smile daily for hours on end - I wanted something quick and convenient. I got that with Candid - and at an affordable rate. My treatment was quick and I am so happy I decided to do this - I have my smile back!

These aligners are unlike ugly braces & they don't cost a fortune as well. I would definitely refer to anyone who needs treatment. Thanks Candid! Your service has been super "CANDID ".

    I really enjoyed working with everyone on the team on Candid. They were all easy and understanding to work with. But the product is did not work well for me. My upper teeth are good but a lower tooth is now loose. I feel like it was a waste of money for me. But I hold nothing against the company.

    I had wanted to fix my teeth for many years. I had braces when I was a child and I lost my retainers and couldn't get replacements in time so my teeth shifted back to pre-braces. I was devastated. I had wanted to fix my teeth but didn't have money for the top of the line invisible liners and didn't want to go through using braces again. Then I found Candid. It was much cheaper and such a easy process to get started and begin treatment. I didn't even have to leave my house. Their staff was always quick to answer questions or needs and my teeth look amazing. Would recommend to anyone who wants to fix their teeth and have to my friends and family as well.

    I was happy with the aligners. I had a problem with a few toward the end getting them to go in on my teeth. If I had not worked as a dental assistant I might not have gotten them in and knew how to trim off the parts that were hurting. I have been using the last set as a retainer but what happens if something happens to them, just wondering. Thank you for helping me get straighter teeth!

    I’ve expressed concerns about my bite and being dissatisfied with my results. My upper front teeth are still crooked and grinding against my lower teeth resulting in a chipped tooth and loss of teeth due to grinding. My bite is not positioned correctly. I’ve sent multiple photos and emails with no response. I’ve spent over $2500 on Candid and to say that I’m disappointed is an understatement. My dentist has recommended Getting braces to correct my bite to prevent my teeth from grinding and chipping. I’m very disappointed with my teeth appearance.

    Overall very happy with the results. Teeth are looking great and straight, super easy to do. Everything was going super well, loved the customer care, but one day one of my teeth starting experiencing sensitivity, changing color, and was extremely painful. Tried to reach Candid, didn't get anything back. Good results, but I would be slightly wary about.

    Had to go to the dentist and spend a few hundred dollars on an appointment for them to check out my tooth for them to tell me that my teeth were moving too fast and that there was a 50% chance I would need a root canal ($$$) and that my teeth moved slightly differently than what Candid assumed. So the retainer didn't fit perfectly. Contacted Candid, talked to a rep, said they were going to send all this info over to my Candid Dr. Never heard anything back, which is concerning since my tooth could've actually died. Luckily, my tooth didn't need surgery, but it will forever be a slightly discolored colored due to the impact. Satisfied with results, but I would be aware of the major consequences that can come with this.
