Questions? Here are some answers.
We’re able to offer a competitive price because our telehealth platform eliminates office overhead that makes traditional orthodontics costly. We ship aligners directly to you, so you can straighten your teeth for up to 60% less than traditional braces.
SmileDirectClub aligners move all teeth simultaneously, distributing force equally across an entire set of teeth. The majority of SmileDirectClub’s treatment plans are 4-6 months. Our network of dentists and orthodontists use our proprietary computer algorithm to carefully plan the coordinated movements of every tooth to safely and efficiently deliver a smile you’ll love.
SmileDirectClub is in-network with most major insurance providers, including UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and Cigna. We can also check for eligibility at Delta Dental, Humana, MetLife, and many more. See how much your insurance will cover here.
Our 24/7 care team can connect you with our team of experienced dental professionals or your teen’s doctor via video, chat, email, or phone. If an issue requires an in-person visit, our team will refer you to an affiliated SmileDirectClub dentist near you. Our dental team, with the assistance of the local dentist, will recommend next steps.
We understand that mistakes happen. For starters, give our customer care team a call at 800-688-4010 so we can understand where your teen is in their smile journey. Then our dental team can provide the best recommendation for your teen's care based on their unique situation. Their treating doctor and our dental team may advise your teen to wear their last set of aligners or to move on to the next set. If we determine your teen needs a replacement aligner, we will send the first set to you for free. Subsequent replacement aligners may be subject to a $99 surcharge depending on the circumstances. Either way – give us a call and we’ll work with you to develop the best path forward for your treatment.
