Excellent service

By Natalee Jade C., Denver, CO, Verified Reviewer

Hands down an amazing experience. Was able to easily book an appointment and find a store near me. The crew members that I got to consult with (Rainy and Niki) went above and beyond. Very friendly, professional, and made sure I left with all the information, and my cute gift bag.

I can’t wait to see what my smile will look like after my plan, designed specifically for me. Extremely excited to be a part of the club and see my progression pictures.

Great service

By Marc W., Scottsdale, AZ, Verified Reviewer

Michele was the person that took care of me and she was AWESOME. She went through the whole procedure and told me all I needed to know about SmileDirectClub. She made my visit very relaxing and she was nice enough to remove her mask so I could lip read and understand her better.

Great service!

By Brittany F., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Verified Reviewer

I made an appointment but when I got to the location they did not have anything in the system. The team went above and beyond to try and help and get me in. They were great and got me in right away! Sadaf was my Smile Guide and was very professional and easy to talk to! Very satisfied.

Thank you!

I was pleasantly surprised

By Michael C., San Diego, CA, Verified Reviewer

I didn’t expect that SDC was for me, but since the visit was free, I stopped into the office, and Jocelyn showed me how SDC works. I kind of thought that if I used them, I’d be out on my own. She showed me how actual dentists look at the scans of my teeth and oversee the process. And she explained that I could come to the office if I felt like I needed help, and dental assistants and dentists would be able to give me whatever help I need. It made me feel better because if my aligners don’t fit right, or have a rough edge or something, there’s a team that can help me on the phone, online, or in person.

So now, I see that this might be a good match for me, by getting the aligners mailed to me, but having help available when I need it. The visit changed my opinion on getting aligners sent by mail, so I’d recommend to people wondering about it, that if they go into an SDC office, they can get some good answers to their questions and concerns.

My Smile Guide Ashley showed me the way

By Brooke G., King of Prussia, PA, Verified Reviewer

The consultation with Ashley was enjoyable - she is very professional, knowledgeable, and fun.

The way they visualize your teeth in their software is fascinating, and very assuring that the smile adjusting process will be comfortable, professional, and precise.

Interested in the $25 incentive for the "free scan?"

By Jennifer H., Belton, MO, Verified Reviewer

After purchasing their at-home whitening kit and liking my results, I became interested in the aligners. I saw the $25 incentive and free swag and thought, "Great! I'll make an extra trip to Overland Park."

Cat met with me, gave me the swag stuff, then canceled the scan despite being explicitly told that I was anticipating the gift card and I was interested in the procedure in the future. I wanted to see what my teeth would look like, but since the technician seemed interested in skipping it, I didn't press. She went over payments and financing with me, and then the company refused to give me the $25 gift card because I wasn't scanned, even though I drove 30 minutes out of my way to get scanned.

Personally, I don't think they give out the gift cards. I think it's a scam to get you to the appointment. At first, they were all but accusing me of lying about showing up, then today, they switched their story to "you went, but because she didn't scan you, it doesn't count." Can you imagine putting a potential thousand-dollar sale through this hassle? Do not trust this company with something as important as your teeth if they can't even be honest about $25.
