We’re excited to share the smiles internationally and provide access to quality orthodontic care for those who normally wouldn’t have this option. Since 2014, SmileDirectClub has helped hundreds of thousands of customers transform their smiles. We believe everyone deserves a smile they love – it shouldn’t be too difficult or expensive to do that.
With large land area and low population density, a substantial portion of Canada has limited access to orthodontic care. In fact, 17.3% of Canadians (that’s 1 out of 6) report avoiding visiting the dentist due to cost, according to a recent report from the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences. Other Canadians say they aren’t getting oral care because they don’t have dental insurance or it’s too expensive to travel to the nearest provider. On average, Canada has about 2 orthodontists per 100,000 people. Plus, the price of dental services has risen faster than the price of health care and inflation since 2002.
That’s where we come in: SmileDirectClub exists to bridge those gaps and give you a lifetime supply of confidence.
Ready to straighten your teeth and get a smile you’ll love? Book your free 3D scan at one of our Canadian SmileShops. Appointments take about 30 minutes, and we’ll share your results with one of our duly licensed dentists and orthodontists. Through a process called teledentistry, the doctor will evaluate your smile and prescribe your treatment remotely.
No SmileShop near you? No problem. We now ship impression kits throughout Canada. For just $95 CAD, we’ll ship a SmileDirectClub impression kit directly to your doorstep. You’ll take impressions of your teeth from the comfort of your own home and send those back to us, and then our doctors will evaluate your smile. Within a week, you’ll be able to see a 3D preview of how your new smile will look month by month as you wear invisible aligners.
Once you’re ready to purchase your invisible aligners, we offer 2 easy ways to pay:
Your BPA-free, custom invisible aligners will be shipped to you to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position – a process that takes, on average, 6 months. At the end of your treatment, you’ll want to order retainers to wear at night and keep your new straight smile in place.
