HOW IT WORKS


YOUR SCHEDULE.


YOUR CHOICE.

Here’s how SmileDirectClub helps deliver a smile you’ll love - safely, simply,
and without monthly office visits.

Am I a candidate?



3 SIMPLE STEPS TO GET STARTED.




IMPRESSION KIT OR SCAN, CHOOSE HOW YOU WANT TO START YOUR JOURNEY.

We make a 3D image of your teeth that lets us see what's going on and helps us
design your custom treatment plan. There are 2 easy ways to make this image: You
can visit a SmileShop for an in-person scan, or use our kit from home to create
impressions you’ll send to us.










WE CREATE YOUR CUSTOMIZED TREATMENT PLAN.

One of our state-licensed doctors will review your 3D image, photos, and medical
history to prescribe and manage your custom aligner treatment plan. We use
state-of-the-art aligner innovations including Smart Sculpt™ for precision
planning and Comfort Sense™ to gradually move your teeth. Choose a wear schedule
that works best for you and your lifestyle – 22 hours per day, or 10 continuous
hours only at night.




GET YOUR ALIGNERS AND START YOUR JOURNEY.

We’ll create your custom aligners and ship them to you all at once. You’ll have
regular virtual Smile Check-ins™ and 24/7 access to our dental care team – all
overseen by your prescribing doctor – so no need for mandatory in-office visits.
Start seeing results in as little as 60 days.

“As little as 60 days” claim is based on survey results with customers who were
in treatment with SmileDirectClub 22 hour wear clear aligners where 80% said
they saw movement within the first 60 days.

ANSWERS TO POPULAR QUESTIONS




HOW DOES SMILEDIRECTCLUB WORK?

SmileDirectClub is the world’s largest direct clear aligner company. All of your
aligners are 100% custom-made in America, just for you, and shipped directly to
you all at once. Each aligner will make slight adjustments to tooth position, a
process that is mapped out in advance using our proprietary state of the art
Smart Sculpt™ technology and approved and prescribed by a state-licensed dentist
or orthodontist. This allows us to offer clinically safe and effective treatment
for 60% less than braces or Invisalign

“60% less than braces or Invisalign” claim is based on Single Pay vs. average
fees (including diagnostics and in-person exams) for treatment of
mild-to-moderate malocclusion with braces or Invisalign as reported in national
surveys of practicing dentists and orthodontists offering such treatments. Price
comparison does not include additional costs, such as retainers. As treatment is
highly individualized, results may not be the same.

3
with no hidden costs or fees. You’ll begin wearing a new set of aligners as
prescribed by your doctor, advancing you to the next stage of your new smile.



SmileDirectClub is committed to getting you the smile you’ll love, for life.
With our Lifetime Smile Guarantee™, if you feel your smile isn’t working out –
during, or at any point after treatment – we’ll make it right, at no additional
cost to you.

SmileDirectClub treatment is backed by our Lifetime Smile Guarantee™. Terms and
conditions apply. See SmileDirectClub.com/guarantee for details.

WHAT ARE SMILEDIRECTCLUB ALIGNERS?

Our aligner treatment includes several sets of tight-fitting, custom-made,
BPA-free clear plastic trays that safely and gradually shift your teeth into
their desired position. 100% of our aligners are custom-made in America at our
state-of-the-art 3D printing facility. They're designed with Comfort Sense™
technology, using soft, medium, and firm plastics that are smooth and won't
irritate your cheeks or gums like braces do. And our aligners don't require you
to have buttons or brackets glued to your teeth, as Invisalign aligners often
do.


WHAT ARE SMILEDIRECTCLUB ALIGNERS MADE OF?

Our aligners are made with BPA-free plastic that feels smooth and comfortable
and won't irritate your cheeks and gums like traditional metal braces often do.
We use Comfort Sense™ technology to design the soft, medium, and firm aligner
plastics that help safely and gradually move your teeth.


WHY ARE YOUR TREATMENT TIMES SO SHORT?

We've pioneered new technologies and innovations that result in shorter
treatment times, allowing our Club members to straighten their teeth in as
little as 4-6 months.

“4-6 months” claim is based on the number of 22 hour wear customer orders
(approx. 95%) with treatment plans that are 4, 5, or 6 months.



11
Our network of dentists and orthodontists use Smart Sculpt™ technology to
carefully plan the coordinated movements of every tooth, as well as Comfort
Sense™ technology to move Club members through soft, medium, and firm plastic
aligners in a proprietary aligner progression plan. Our telehealth platform
allows us to monitor your treatment regularly via convenient virtual check-ins,
and offer you 24/7 access to our Dental Care team — so you and your teen can get
immediate answers to any treatment questions or issues (rather than being
limited to monthly in-office orthodontist visits). And we put the knowledge
we've gained straightening over 1.5 million smiles into making your teen's
treatment as efficient as possible.



All of this is how we deliver precision teeth straightening on a schedule you
teen will love.


CAN WE TALK TO MY TEEN’S DENTIST REMOTELY?

You’re welcome to connect with your treating doctor through our telehealth
platform. Our Dental Care team is accessible via chat, video, email or phone,
24/7/365. Using our remote telehealth platform, you will have regular Smile
Check-ins™ with your dentist or orthodontist as well. We’ll be with you every
step of the way.


DOES A LICENSED DENTIST OR ORTHODONTIST REVIEW MY CASE?

Yes. Every Club members clear aligner treatment plan is doctor-directed and
doctor-managed from start to finish.


WHAT HAPPENS AFTER MY ALIGNER TREATMENT IS COMPLETE?

Protect your investment! We strongly recommend you safeguard your new smile with
our custom-fit SmileDirectClub retainers. Without retainers, teeth have a
tendency to shift back to their original positions. Keep them from moving back
with our custom-fit retainers. One set costs $99 and is available to purchase
toward the end of your treatment. Call our customer care team at 1-800-848-7566
about 4–5 weeks before you finish your treatment plan to place your order.


I'M A DENTIST. CAN I PARTNER WITH SMILEDIRECTCLUB?

Yes. In fact, we've already partnered with hundreds of dentists so patients can
get started in the comfort of a dentist's office. If you'd like to offer
patients the chance to get started with SmileDirectClub aligners in your
practice, please click here to learn more or reach out today.

Accessibility StatementCompliance status

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone
and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the broadest
possible audience, regardless of ability.

To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web
Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA
level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people
with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us
ensure that the website is accessible to blind people, people with motor
impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.

This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as
accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that
allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user
interface) and design it to their personal needs.

Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the
background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application
remediates the website’s HTML, adapts its functionality and behavior for
screen-readers used by blind users, and for keyboard functions used by
individuals with motor impairments.

If you wish to contact the website’s owner please use the website's form

Screen-reader and keyboard navigation

Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet
Applications) technique, alongside various behavioral changes, to ensure blind
users visiting with screen-readers can read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s
functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they
immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can
browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of
the most important screen-reader requirements:

 1. Screen-reader optimization: we run a process that learns the website’s
    components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when
    updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with
    meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide
    accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons,
    search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs;
    element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. 
    
    Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images. It
    provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based
    description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not
    described. It will also extract texts embedded within the image using an OCR
    (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader
    adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard
    combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn
    the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
    
    These adjustments are compatible with popular screen readers such as JAWS,
    NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
    
    
 2. Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the
    website’s HTML and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the
    website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the
    website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow
    keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key,
    navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill
    them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.
    
    Additionally, keyboard users will find content-skip menus available at any
    time by clicking Alt+2, or as the first element of the site while navigating
    with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by
    moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, not allowing
    the focus to drift outside.
    
    Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F”
    (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

   jump to specific elements.

Additional UI, design, and readability adjustments
 1. Font adjustments – users can increase and decrease its size, change its
    family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more.
 2. Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as
    light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color
    schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds with over seven different coloring
    options.
 3. Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the click
    of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs,
    and CSS flashing transitions.
 4. Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize essential elements such
    as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered
    elements only.
 5. Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other
    issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the
    entire website instantly.
 6. Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine linked to Wikipedia and
    Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher meanings of
    phrases, initials, slang, and others.
 7. Additional functions – we allow users to change cursor color and size, use a
    printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.

Assistive technology and browser compatibility

We aim to support as many browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so
our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as
possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major
systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share, including Google
Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS, and NVDA
(screen readers), both for Windows and MAC users.

Notes, comments, and feedback

Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their
needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are
in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological
solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our
accessibility, adding, updating, improving its options and features, and
developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal
level of accessibility following technological advancements. If you wish to
contact the website’s owner, please use the website's form
