When I started working with Candid™ there were many pros to their treatment plan, and I was more than excited to begin my own treatment journey. There were many pros on my list when choosing to work with them and I will share details of each.

AFFORDABLE

Candid™ clear aligners are 65% less costly than traditional braces and other clear aligner brands. Living in NYC has me on a tight budget, so this was a huge selling point to me. Once you like and approve your treatment plan by your Candid™ orthodontist, you can get started by purchasing treatment. You’ll have a choice to pay $1900 upfront or in monthly installments as low as $88 per month.

CONVEINIENT

The entire process can be done in the comfort of your home. You can read about how I began my treatment here. There is no need to ever visit an orthodontist’s office, and this was a huge selling point because with work and travel who honestly has time for doctor’s appointments. Although there is no in office visits, treatment is 100% guided by an orthodontist the entire way. If there was ever a question or concern the Candid™ customer service team was an email or phone call away.

INVISIBLE

Like a ghost, my clear aligners are literally invisible. No one could tell I was ever wearing them which at first was my main concern. Throughout treatment I often forgot I was wearing them myself. Wearing the clear aligners is essentially a full time job as you are wearing them for 20-22 hours a day. If you ask me, wearing these could have been my best kept secret of all time.

PAINLESS

For the most part, the entire process is pain free. You switch your clear Candid™ aligners every two weeks, and with each set of new aligners there is an adjustment period of 1-2 days, as your teeth are shifting. An ibuprofen relieves most of the minimal discomfort, but I personally did not find the discomfort painful enough to take anything.

If you are considering at home teeth straightening, I can vouch for what an amazing experience it has been working with Candid™. If you have any questions about my experience or treatment, please comment below!
