Teen being treated for teeth straightening

Straighten your teen's teeth with the expertise and peace of mind you expect from an in-person orthodontist, all from the comfort of home.

How it works

1

Starting is easy

Bring your teen into a Candid Studio for a free scan, then our team will take it from there.

2

Our doctors assess their case

Then they’ll design your teen’s treatment plan. When it’s ready, you’ll get a 3D model of their teeth straightening over time.

3

Their aligners, delivered

Your teen’s teeth straightening kit includes their full set of aligners and everything needed for CandidMonitoring™ by a doctor.

“It was all very easy. It wasn’t confusing so I’m able to do it by myself. It’s way better than braces for sure because you can take them out, eat what you want, clean them. Now, every time I smile, I feel confident.”

Chairside Care, From Your Phone

CandidApp™

Your connection to care

More check-ins, more peace of mind

We believe regular check-ins are essential throughout treatment and we’re the only company that includes remote monitoring every 10 days. Through CandidApp™, your teen will send in high-resolution scans of their teeth to their orthodontist and will receive feedback within 24 hours.

Oversight is the key to compliance

Worried about your teen not wearing their aligners? The extra layer of attention your teen gets with remote monitoring also encourages compliance, while letting you see their progress from start to finish. Their orthodontist can also keep an eye on the overall health of your teen’s teeth by detecting some hygiene and gum-related issues throughout treatment.

You're always connected to care

CandidApp™ gives you a front row seat to your teen’s treatment. See their transformation come to life at every step through your teen’s regular high-resolution remote monitoring scans. The app is also where you can find messages from their orthodontist. If your teen happens to misplace their aligners, reach out to our Care Specialists in the app to get a replacement.
