The US-based dentistry company was offering aligners for about £1,800 without the need to visit a dentist.
A last-ditch rescue attempt failed though as it was weighed down by debt.
A last-ditch rescue attempt failed though as it was weighed down by debt.
In traditional dentistry, “train-track” braces and clear aligners are fitted by dentists and orthodontists themselves, or a trained orthodontic therapist, after an in-person consultation.
Many customers were drawn to Smile Direct Club because of the lower price point and the fact they could take the moulds for their aligners themselves at home.
Treatment with the company typically takes between four to six months and customers have online check-ins with registered dentists.
In a statement on its website, the company says that it has “improved more than two million smiles and lives”.
However, customers in the US, UK and elsewhere have been left confused as the firm says that its customer support line will no longer be available, despite the fact that customers may need check-ins or adjustments for their aligners.
