    My treatment plan shows that I will be able to only realign my top teeth, not the bottom. Yet, you guys want to charge me in full, the price that you would for both upper and lower teeth and that isn't right. There should be a discount if only half the mouth is being treated.

    I really wanted to go into the store for a scan rather than doing it at home so that I was able to understand the process and make sure I did not make any mistakes. It was very cool to see the scan and understand the teeth that had shifted and were causing changes to my smile. I am excited to get started!

    My bottom teeth in the front were “too involved for what SmileDirect offers”. I don’t care if it would take 12-24 months to correct my teeth instead of the 4-6 months they advertise. This was a Christmas gift from my husband to take care of a long term dream. I have been turned down for commercials because of my lower teeth! I would undergo a longer correction to finally correct this problem. My heart hurt when I was notified! Joanie

    When ordering my aligners I was given a coupon code to make the payments $49 a month. Nowhere in the advertising did it say that the cost of the aligners would go up more and that the payments would be for a longer period of time. I keep getting different answers from customer service. My order was canceled and then I was thought I wouldn’t be able to have it fixed or replaced for another five weeks after already waiting the 2 to 3 weeks that I was told it would take to get my order. I have screenshots showing the estimated cost for my retainers and it says 2389. If this was a mistake that is an error on their side, not a cost I should foot.

    I was interested in having my lower teeth straightened, but the "Smile Plan" only included the upper teeth. When I inquired, I was told that Smile Club is only for "minor to moderate straightening". I had to go through the entire process to learn I wasn't a candidate. Also, your emails and texts were super-annoying.

    I received my impression kit and had it dropped In mail. It took a little while to get there but once it did they did a pretty quick job at creating my new smile. I sit staring at the 3d results just dreaming that I could be able to afford the program. I was under the impression that whitening would come with the kit as it said free whitening but I never got anything like that, only the clay and molds. It would be so nice to be able to get my dream smile but as a Muslim I only have the option to full pay since other options add interest. :(

    I was recommended aligners that didn’t make much difference at all, at a steep cost and lengthy time frame to wear them. I was also constantly sent emails and texts as “reminders” to do my moulds, when they had already mailed them back. It was borderline harassment how many messages I got. Would not recommend.

    I originally came to SDC for answers regarding my oral health and alignment a couple months before I committed. They made me feel welcome and uninhibited in my consultation. The manager and I even exchanged some personal stories that made me feel more comfortable And ultimately lead to my decision to pursue Smile Direct Club. The entire experience was super enjoyable and I feel confident putting “my money where my mouth is” literally and physically.

    My dentist hygienist suggested SmileDirectClub. We were talking about my teeth. As I got older, they were misaligned. And she said a lot of people were doing the invisible aligners. We talked about XYZ company. And she said, “Well, SmileDirect is just as good and their prices are more reasonable.” There happens to be a shop in the city where I live. So I made an appointment and went, had my teeth scanned, and started from there. However, I was a little disappointed that there wasn't more follow up. As I completed, I would have expected someone to contact me and ask me if I was satisfied. Because they have a lifetime guarantee as long as you continue to use their aligners. And I haven't been contacted by anybody. Other than that, it was a good value. My teeth are perfectly aligned, except for one tooth that didn't seem to come in very well. But the rest of them are aligned. I also use the whitener and my teeth are beautiful and white.

    I so badly wanted this to be successful. I followed the protocol to the letter (wearing the aligners around the clock except when eating). Unfortunately, when I got to the end of the treatment, I still had a couple teeth in an excessively sideways position. SDC has the Smile Guarantee, but their customer service is just so disorganized and sloppy that they have not made good on it. Every representative I have spoken with has been polite but not at all knowledgeable. I have been fighting with them for over a month to get me new aligners to finish the treatment. $2,000 is a good deal if you actually receive what you purchased. Otherwise, it's a lot of money to waste. I'm hoping this will incentivize them to sort it out quickly because I do still want the results I was promised and I know that it is possible.

    The free scan was an easy and pleasant process. I was seeking information specifically for correction of my bottom teeth, as my top were already straight and was told the only option is to correct both top and bottom teeth. I was asked to commit and make my first payment prior to a dentist reviewing my scan or going over my treatment plan. I declined and waited until I revived the results of my scan. A few days after my scan I received an email stating my “treatment plan” has been approved and prompted me to make a payment. The approved treatment plan only showed changes to my top teeth, so I called to speak with someone who told me only my top teeth could be corrected.

    Approving my treatment plan for both my top and bottom teeth when my bottom teeth could not be corrected feels deceptive. I feel my treatment plan should not have been approved if my bottom teeth could not be corrected at all and my top teeth hardly needed any correcting. I urge anyone exploring this as an option to be very diligent in reviewing the treatment plan and asking questions.

    The person who did my 3D scan seemed a little lost when I was asking about the sweepstake you were having regarding the free aligner set which I was required to either book a 3d scan for or do the impression kit and I opted for the scan to get it done quicker. She really seemed stoic and robotic while she was explaining the details and I was just not enthralled, I am actually disinterested in coming back if anything. Like anybody who has some financial literacy, I am interested in saving when I can so when I have the option to win something like this for FREE I of course will take interest in it by asking the right questions and doing my part. She seemed slightly irritated when I asked a simple question about it and she was forced to acknowledge she had no clue and told me to contact customer service.

    I would assume coming all the way to the SmileDirectClub that a person working there would have some basic sense of the sweepstakes that are being offered etc. Just cause some people don't understand the concept of saving/investing and exhausting all possible available sources doesn't mean you have to feel some type of way about the people that do. Not only that but when I was trying to explain about my history of braces and retainers and being interested in possibly getting retainers alone she just seemed very very lost like she couldn't improvise outside of her mental script. My teeth have not shifted much, I am also fine with how they currently look, and don't mind just simply maintaining them.

    Back story is, my old top retainer is breaking down after 15 years of using it (I lost the bottom ones that's why you see more shifting on the bottom teeth) and I am looking into getting a new pair of retainers since it has helped keep my top teeth from shifting too much and barely anyone can see my bottom teeth so I am not concerned. I have one tooth on the top ever so slightly jutting out but still my teeth look very good after getting my braces removed 15 years ago). If smile direct club can't provide that and forces you to pay the same amount a person who has really crooked teeth would then I can easily find somewhere else to get new retainers alone. I would love to be entered in the sweepstake to get a more "perfect" smile and ultimately get some new retainers in the process but if not there are other services etc. available who can offer retainers alone.

    I liked the convenience that SmileDireClub offered. Also, a friend of mine used them and I liked the results that I saw. I previously had traditional braces. After a while, I misplaced my retainer, moved to another state, and had an opportunity to get another retainer. I needed to fix the little inconsistencies that not wearing a retainer for about seven months caused. SmileDirectClub lived up to everything that they say that they would do. Their product was great and so was their customer service. My smile turned out just the way I assumed that it would turn out. It went well.

    My teeth spaced back out so I needed to get them back lined up. I decided to work with SmileDirectClub because I kept seeing a lot of social media posts about them and their results for a while. I made an appointment for their physical location then I went there one day. It was a 30-minute consult. They x-rayed my teeth and let me know how much time it’s gonna take to get the first ones out. It was four to six weeks after they fabricate things. I've never had any issues since then. They usually send me an email to check in and I do that probably two or three times. My results were 90% varied stuff. I could have gone a little bit more. I still have a few little gaps that I wanted to be tightened up. Overall, I'm still happy with my results.

    I've been researching all the different clear aligner companies, so I decided to do molds for all of them to weigh price/results. I booked an appointment for SDC since my office is near one of their locations. I put my CC info to book the free appointment (in case of no-show). Everyone at the office was super nice and my scan went fine. At the end they had me sign a form for the plan, and I was obviously cautious to do so. I explained that I did not want to be charged without seeing the projected results, which was supposed to be 72 hours from my appointment. I assured (more than once) that I would be able to review my plan before deciding if I want to move forward and that I would absolutely not be charged. This was a lie. The next day I was surprised to find that I was charged $250 for the deposit since I indicated I would be doing the payment plan IF I decided to move forward. I also received an email that my aligners were already in production.

    I HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN WHAT YOU GUYS WOULD DO TO MY TEETH. I had to call and cancel the entire order, and I was told I'd need to start from square one and do another 3D scan if I decided to move forward with SDC (spoiler alert: I will be going with Candid who actually uses orthodontists). After reading other reviews, I have a feeling I'll be on the phone with SDC's customer service a few more times when my refund inevitably doesn't go through. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SHADY COMPANY.

Contacted customer service on January 12th and just flat out asked for my refund and at that time I was told the company was severely behind and my aligners were still waiting to be printed. I wasted my time with your company. My whole reason of wanting to go with Smile is because I wanted straight teeth by an important event. Now I have to redo the whole process with another company.

Four days later, I received the call stating that for the cost, the only thing that could be fixed were my upper teeth, not the lower. My upper have little wrong with them and it is not cost effective to assume I would pay $2000 for that which has little issue. Your organization should be upfront and your techs should know if there are those customers that cannot be assisted with your product. Waste of time and my personal information.

That is all he stated, but instead after I get home I realized I was video recorded for the prime reason that I'd receive $25 gift card, but instead receive an email stating I can redeem $25 to my next purchase of $50 or more. That's fraudulent and you should make sure to tell your employees to be specific when they state it will be a $25 gift card in return for being video recorded.

It was a comprehensive and thorough appointment so I was pretty satisfied with it. We got it all set up quickly. From there, I got the shipment of all the retainers. Luckily, I didn't have any hiccups so everything worked out for me. I didn't ever have to get anything remade or anything fixed.

    I noticed a significant change even within the first two months on my top teeth. As for my bottom teeth, it was more significantly midway through. It took four or five months to really be able to noticeably tell the change. Overall, just do it with SmileDirectClub. I was wishy-washy about it for a really long time.

    I had seen stuff online and different commercials of SmileDirectClub and it was so much cheaper so I thought that it would be an easy route for me. Because I didn't want to have to go to the dentist every couple of weeks to get fitted for the aligner, go in to get the x-rays and get fitted, it was so much easier just one time and then having everything sent directly to me. I did it online and scheduled an appointment and went there. They were very helpful, nice, got everything taken care of for me within 30 minutes and I was out the door. I had a gap in between my two front teeth, some spacing between some other ones, but nothing really major. So that was what I wanted to do because I was insecure about that. When I had talked to the lady, she said it's an easy fix and she thought it would work fine and she was right.

    I feel good about the results. It's done everything that I wanted it to do. There's still one tooth that has a little bit of space in between, but I don't know if that's just something that won't completely close. But in general, everything was fine. They're a lot easier and sooner than I had thought it would be, because I didn't believe that it would happen that fast and it did.

    All in all a good experience, the communication for things was tough at one time. More pictures were needed and they never notified me to redo pics. I wish the price was different since they were only able to correct my top teeth. Would recommend for others to use.

    I chose the Lancaster location to have my appointment at and I am so glad I made that decision. Although the office was running behind with appointments, due to being unintentionally understaffed, the employees present made sure to communicate every step of the way. I had the pleasure of having my scan appointment with Karen, who was very pleasant and personable. Karen explained everything perfectly and allowed me to be extremely comfortable to ask questions. Couldn’t have had a better visit!

    The first retainer I put on didn't last any time. It was three or four days, and it was so loose at the back of the teeth that I could actually take my tongue and flip it off. The rep took photos and they sent me another one. I called another time because I cracked one, and they just told me what to do. So, the customer service has been great. I wear the retainers for 24 hours, and next week, I start wearing them every day for at least 10 hours at night.

    I referred a friend and she is having wisdom tooth removed. SmileDirectClub sent her the kit and she said, "I forget, I'm having a wisdom tooth removed, but I don't want to do a mold." So, she called them and the rep told her, "Okay. That's fine. Whenever you're ready for your mold, just send it in." So, she's pleased. Whenever she gets her tooth out, get healed up, she will send in the mold. And she seems to really want to do it. She said her teeth are gapping. She saw how mine turned out, so she wants to try it, because it's so much more economical than getting traditional braces.

    Morgan was nice and answered all my questions. I am concerned about how they clean the 3D scan equipment. I was told they wipe down everything but the camera glass that goes in your mouth. That’s concerning because that part touches the inside of your mouth and can spread germs and bacteria.

    The 3D smile scan was top of the line, really. My smile guide was very informative. It will only take 4-6 months to improve my smile! Plus, if my teeth get misaligned in the future, they fix it free of charge! What a perk. Everything was very clean and my smile guide was very organized. My only worry was the monthly payment. My smile guide helped me sign up for care credit and I was approved instantly. Smile Direct is very affordable now. I'm so excited for my first aligner box to come in the mail!

    I do not think I will continue with purchasing my aligners with SmileDirectClub. That is how bad the first impression and customer experience has been with this company. I am certainly not smiling. Just taking part in the first few steps of this customer journey, I have had extreme difficulty conveying basic information, getting proper instructions, and using the functionality of the technology platforms that support this program. It's incredibly disappointing to see a company that has been conveyed as an easy-to-use alternative be realized by me as anything but easy.

    The experience was going okay at first. I order my kit and it was shipped to my address. I then used the kit, mailed it back, and then continued to complete my initial steps. This is where SmileDirectClub lost me. I thought such an established company would have a seamless, integrated, and complete digital experience during one of their basic processes that customers use. This is not the case in my experience. While trying to simply upload photos of my teeth to the website, I was not able to. I tried continuously, used different browsers, and tried on both a mobile and desktop platform. No customer willing to pay thousands of dollars should have to go through that just to upload one photo. SmileDirectClub is publicly-traded company; any reasonable person should assume that its digital experience needs to align with such a title.

    I then had to figure out SmileDirectClub's customer service contact information and email them that I was having this issue. The photo upload feature was broken. Because of this, I was not able to even complete my own registration for the first part of my experience with SmileDirectClub. Right away, this was a big red flag that this company was not ready to offer such a service and product to a large scale market like they're attempting to do.

    Through email, I had to attach my photos and send them to the support team. The support team then replied and asked me to respond to 16 different questions about my history. I was then asked to submit my concerns and was given a dental chart. This instruction was confusing and took support emailing my four different times to convey what exactly they wanted for these "concerns." This concern area should have been made more clear, or more aligned with the actual website experience.

    I'm really disappointed that this process had to be done over email and dragged out the experience additional weeks. It's very sad to try to register for this service back-and-forth with customer support rather than through an actual digital platform. I was not able to do any of this through the app even though I constantly see pushes to "get the best results with our app." It's tragic to constantly see this message on the website, but in reality cannot even use it to upload photos, fill out questionnaires, or even see any relevant information about my account.

    After receiving the email about giving a review for this experience, I promptly clicked on it to give a constructive review of my experience. I was asked to put in my order number. I thought this would be an easy-to-find number since it was being asked here. Instead, it was extremely difficult for me to even find an order number. It's not on the several support emails I had about the order. It's not on my own dashboard. It not under "my account" on the website. It's not on the shipping confirmation email. It's not on the link to track my kit. It's not on the photo confirmation email. It's not on the treatment plan. It's not even on the "order your aligners" page. Instead, I had to Google how to found it, where Reddit told me that I need to contact customer support for it.

    This was the final straw for this dysfunctional experience. Here I am trying to give a constructive review of the struggles I experienced, and I cannot even get the order number for my own kit. What a disgusting display of a "customer experience" this has been. I was then interested to see if others had this issue. I was met with numerous stories from other users about horrible customer service, constant growing pains, and news stories concerning permanent dental damage from the product. This overall has dissuaded my opinion and experience for this service, and is why I am reconsidering continuing this program. I hope that SmileDirectClub can work to address these issues, and hopefully ensure that other customers don't get the same terrible experience I did.

    I do not know that I have an order number as it was not given to me. First, to be a little picky perhaps, the sign on the door said “we are closed” when clearly they were open. Apparently they are short-staffed due to Covid, but only to find this out after I waited about 30 minutes beyond my appointment time. The representatives were very nice, however and that is much appreciated. As many emails and texts I received prior to my appointment, I was excited.. but did not appreciate having to wait so long after my appointment time as I took off from work for an allowed amount of time for this particular appointment and drove almost 40 miles one way to this location for the scan that was supposed to be quick and simple. Overall the experience was pretty good, but then to find out cost and payment plans then be told not sure if they can fully help my bite, which is my foremost concern. Understandable if their services are limited but upfront information would be better.

    I accidentally ordered pay in full, for my aligners. The impression kit was easy, everything went smooth. I canceled the order not even 20 minutes after the mistaken payment method. And told them the problem. Apparently there was nothing that could be done except cancel the order and wait 2 TO 10 BUSINESS DAYS. So now my bank account is acquiring late fees until they give me my money back. So all in all I am receiving most likely $100 to $200 in fees if not more, because they simply couldn't just cancel the transaction. So I will definitely now not purchase aligners because of this huge problem. Huge waste of my money and time for nothing.

    I liked not having to go into the dentist. And it worked. I read some articles where people said their retainers didn't fit. Because I had braces before, and if you don't wear your retainers, they get tight, so people don't push them in or pull, whatever they need to get the retainer on for it to start working so it will slide on. That might be something SmileDirect should tell people, because I didn't think mine would work either. But you just have to work them until they pop on. Usually, after that first day, they pop in and out. They are a little difficult, but they go in and out for those few hours.

    I went two hours a day without wearing my retainer, so I didn't do it before. Today is the longest I've had them off all day. But normally, I still only have them off four or five hours a day just because I know they have to have time to fix your teeth. After you move them like that, you have to have time to see. Since I'm 67, I know it will take longer, so I wear my retainers long. I would recommend SmileDirectClub for the price, and it was easy to do.

    I was not expecting, & was VERY surprised/shocked, at the EXTREMELY HIGH PRESSURE sales tactics. I went in expecting to get all my questions answered and leave with the needed information to come home and share with my husband (we had planned to decide which payment route, etc, in which to go, & then to sign up & make the down-payment, possibly that same night, but no later than the next afternoon), all of which I made very clear to both of the ladies (who signed me in & the one who did my actual scan, at the same time, as both were in the room with me while checking in) & I was assured that a lot of people do that (especially when their spouses are unable to make the appointment with the ["potential"] patient or, as in my case, their spouse is also unreachable during the work day, DUE to work).

    Therefore I was quite unprepared (& again VERY shocked & surprised!) by the extremely HIGH pressure that was put on me at the end of my appointment to make a decision RIGHT NOW! And I was basically told that if I didn't make a decision & sign up right then & there, that the special offers (such as the $49/mo payment special -which I also found out really is NOT even an actual "special" at all! [It is simply 60 months worth of payments instead of $89/mo for 24 months!] Definitely not something even written in the fine print! [If I'm incorrect in that statement, please SHOW me where I missed that...??] So that was ALSO quite disappointing to say the least-).

    AND I seem to also have missed the part about the gift card, whitening kit & entry into the drawing for $1950 worth of free aligners, was ONLY meant for those people who paid the downpayment AT THE APPOINTMENT, as I was made to feel as if not only did I "put out" the girl who did my appt by not signing up right then (because, as she told me SEVERAL TIMES, she did NOT receive "credit nor any commission for 'potential patients' ONLY for those that signed up & made their downpayment AT their appointment. So {she} wouldn't be 'making anything off of me'.")

    I did (finally, after asking about it several times, & then finally straight out asking FOR it) receive the 'whitening kit', but nothing was mentioned about being entered into the drawing nor about the gift card, of which I've also not received nor received any information or communication regarding. (But again, if I missed the fine print regarding those 2 things only applying to those who made a down-payment of $250 AT the 3D appointment & started then, please let me know & show me...??)

    All that is to say, I (& my husband, after having heard some of the last parts about the commission & credit & such, for HIMSELF, as he was actually on the phone when she again mentioned all of that!) are VERY put-off by that lady, that I'm no longer sure that I even want to get my aligners with SmileDirect (when I was REALLY looking forward to it, & had planned to get started today, Wed January 5 2022 -the day after my appt Tues Jan 4 2022- But after that experience with her, I'm just not sure, mostly because there's no way for me to know if she even gave me any/all correct answers to my specific questions or if she was just doing all she could to "make a sale"...because that is all she made ME feel like I was.).

Brand and experience is very consistent across all platforms. I’m not a customer yet, but I have confidence in them should I choose to sign up. Learned today of their lifetime guarantee - meaning, free align ERS should my teeth move again - which I Love and know is a great value…this being my 3rd round of braces :-) That’s a great feature in my book and will probably seal the deal.

    Two years ago my dentist suggested that I did the brace because I complained that I just couldn’t clean my teeth completely even using electronic toothbrush. After two years pandemics, this time when I come back to the state to visit my daughter from France which I currently live now, my dentist again urged me to take action. He specifically recommended Invisalign this time, but the price he quoted to me just too high. Then I searched on the web and found the SmileDirectClub. I booked the appointment and was so glad I did. The experience I had was wonderful. It is super easy with the 3D scanner to get the image of the whole set of teeth. The two assistants who worked with me are also super friendly and professional.

    All in all, I had a wonderful experience in this clinic. And the most surprising thing is that the price is so affordable and reasonable. I signed the papers with no hesitation. All the aligners will be shipped to me in two to three weeks just in time for my next travel abroad. And best of all, I don’t have to visit the clinic during these treatment period says 4-6 months when I will be in France. Even when I do have problem, I can go to their Paris store.

    I had a couple of other friends that used Invisalign. I started looking into it and had a little bit of sticker shock because I didn't have a very severe issue. I just didn't feel good about spending that much money on it. I looked around at some more affordable options and heard some good things from people about SmileDirect. I did some research and then I gave it a try. I did the nighttime plan where I could wear it when I'm asleep and it works really well. It resolved the issues that I had and it really straightened my teeth. I've been wearing my retainers and everything seems to be fine. The instructions are understandable and it's easy to do.

    I wanted to close the small gap in my two front teeth. SmileDirect was the easiest thing to get and I've had my retainer from them since October. This process would be great for somebody that had teeth that were a little bit worse than just a gap because it's one price for everybody. I could have gone a cheaper route. Also, the retainers are a little flimsy and could probably be made out of better and thicker material. If I take my retainer out for 30 minutes to eat, I can already feel my gap shifting. Overall, Smiledirect has been good and I would recommend them to other people. It's better compared to Invisalign where you don't know what price you're gonna get.

    I've been super excited about my aligner experience, but am frustrated now. I was told during my consult appointment that I could sign up for nighttime aligners. I did. I received many, many emails and texts confirming and pumping me up about my order, and not one indicated that I would not get nighttime aligners. They indicated that the whole process would take 4 months because not much movement is needed.

    I received my box, and noticed that at least the first two aligners directed me to wear them 22 hours per day. I got in touch with customer service to inquire about whether this is how the process starts for all aligners, or if I received all-day aligners rather than the nighttime aligners I signed up for. I was told that I was not approved for nighttime aligners. This is the first time I heard this information. I explained the above and was told that the doctor would be contacted and asked why I did not qualify for nighttime aligners (I have very little movement needed). I explained that if I had been told during my consult or any time before receiving my aligner box that I would have to wear them all day, I would not have purchased, so I felt very fooled. The good news is that I received an email explaining that the doctor has approved me for nighttime aligners and a whole new set is being sent to me.

    I don't understand why I wasn't approved for them to begin with, or told that this was the case. I hate that all new aligners need to be made...such a waste of money!!! I am glad that I do qualify for nighttime aligners, but don't understand why I didn't get those to begin with. Until this week, I had been singing SmileDirect's praises to everyone and actually got my sister to sign up as well (she paid in full upfront)....she was also told during the consult that she would be able to get nighttime aligners. I know for a fact that she has more movement needed than I do, that she was told numerous times that nighttime-only aligners were an option, and that she would NOT have purchased if she would have to wear the aligners all day. Her box has been shipped and she is awaiting now. I'm hoping the same thing didn't happen to her!

SmileDirectClub being 1,895 was the biggest thing. I opted to go into one of their shops instead of doing everything at home. Once I got that done, everything was smooth.

    The in-person office scan was great but it took months to get my scan results, after emailing customer service to follow up multiple times. I went in for my scan on 10/30 and did not receive my scan results until 12/24 - almost 2 months later. I followed up multiple times and would receive generic responses saying they were looking into my case, but customer service would just go silent again. This has ultimately deterred me from trusting SDC to help with my smile journey. Overall, the process ended up being more frustrating than easy as they advertise.

    First off, I was about 15 mins early for my appointment, and a young ** lady, who so happened to be expecting her first child took care of me right away. She was very sociable and we had a great conversation about children while she was setting me up for my imaging. The manager Jose was also very pleasant and assisted with imaging, as well. They both made sure I was comfortable, Jose made sure I didn't forget to take my lip gloss and whitening kit. All in all, it was a great experience. Thank you, Nelson M.

    Smile Direct contacted me in response to this review. I was ultimately refunded the better part of my money. Appreciate them making things right, in the end.

    Original Review: Dec. 28, 2021

    Stay away. Scam. 0 stars. Said they pre-approved with my insurance for 50% reimbursement. Insurance said they were never contacted. There’s an age limit for orthodontia, and I was well passed it. No way someone could have contacted them. Very inconsistent quality in aligners. Some were very thin, not strong enough to apply appropriate force. Some received broken. After two programs (they call it re-touch if the first go around doesn’t work), alignment issue was still not resolved. They also don’t make it widely known on their website, until after you’ve signed up, that you will be expected to wear retainers the rest of your life, and then hammer you to order. Customer service was terrible, outside of the local shop. Wish I could get my money back. Waste of time, and money. Their whitening product is about the only good thing. Their electric toothbrush was rubbish too.

    Updated on 12/28/2021: Smile Direct responded to my Consumer Affairs review stating that they tried contacting me but I have no missed calls or messages. I know they have my information so why lie and state you tried to contact me. Bad business.

    Original Review: My daughter is conscientious about her teeth so I am willing to spend +$2,000 to have them straightened. Went and had the scan, signed the agreement on Nov. 19th, and waited, and waited. I never received any correspondence about my pending order so I called on Dec. 27th and was told their product was not able to help my daughter. Disappointed that no one contacted me.

    I tried Smile Direct club 2 years ago and was very happy with the results. About 90 days ago I reached out to buy 3 extra retainers. They said they did not have my impressions anymore, and that I had to do them again. So I did. The rep said since it was probably some minor adjustments, it could be included. That was nice to hear! It did take about a month to and a few follow up calls to get some results. Yesterday, I get a link to a new plan with some minor adjustments and a request for $1,900. Not very impressed. I will go elsewhere to have retainers fitted for me.

    Updated review: Jan. 4, 2022

    The aligners that I purchased did not fit and actually caused some temporary gum swelling and irritation. I contacted the company requesting a refund and cancellation. It did take a few days to get any assistance (the week prior to Christmas holidays) and I was very concerned as I'd read so many negative reviews others had had with refunds. That being said, I became a bit irritable and worried when sending my requests. Anna and Elizabeth, however, both responded without any type of negative attitude towards my emails, staying both cordial and professional and they also did what needed to be done for me to receive a refund after verifying receipt of the aligners back in their warehouse. I'm very relieved and hope others have positive results, too, if they need to cancel their purchase within the thirty day guarantee period.

    Original Review: Dec. 25, 2021

    SmileDirect has not followed through on their guarantee to cancel the aligner and refund the money I've already given them. They had assured me a call back or email within three-five business days last week. The box did not have all of the necessary equipment, did not send them when notified of their error two weeks ago. Also, the aligners did not fit-they did not reach all the way to the back of my teeth, dug into my gums, causing irritated and swollen gums.

    Communication has been very difficult and frustrating. It started before Thanksgiving and I was about to start my final set (#12) of aligners. I asked if impressions were needed to order retainers, and if further adjustments may be necessary. Due to a combination of poor communication, travel delays, delays with the mail, and missing or bad impressions, it has been 30 days and I still don't know the status if I need more aligners or to order retainers.

    I met with Amy in the Lancaster office and I had a lot of questions. She seemed to answer them all completely but was noticeably irritated with my discomfort with giving my credit card before knowing what I was getting exactly and how my smile would look. I also had no idea that I wouldn't be able to discuss the image or the video with an orthodontist. I wanted to be able to understand the correction and how much or how little could be corrected which Amy could not answer. I gave my credit card in the office but after talking with my husband and scheduling another appointment with a local orthodontist I asked to remove my credit card until I could see the correction or know how much or how little could be corrected. She was irritated and every time I called after she removed my card she did not answer her phone or the phone of the office. I have been trying to call for 2 days and have not gotten one person to answer the phone.

    The day of my scan before I removed my card I spoke to her 3 times and she answered every single time. Now that she didn't get my money or the commission I feel like I was dropped and treated poorly. All I wanted was to ask someone if it was possible to see a front view of the bottom teeth not the view from above. Since I have an overbite that can only be minimally corrected I cannot see what the front of my bottom teeth would look like. I actually want to move forward but I don't want to have to call a call center when I spent over an hour with a rude associate who blew me off once I removed my credit card. I really would like to speak to the manager.
