Thinking about straightening your teeth but not sure where to begin? The free e-consultation at Smileie is the no-commitment first step that lets you find out whether clear aligners are right for you — all from the comfort of your sofa.
Unlike many at-home aligner brands, Smileie pairs this online convenience with real, GDC-registered dental oversight. That means you're never making decisions about your teeth alone. Let's walk through every step so you know exactly what to expect.
Smileie's free e-consultation is a zero-cost, zero-pressure online assessment reviewed by qualified dental professionals. You'll know whether you're a suitable candidate before spending a penny.
Step 1: Book Your Free E-Consultation Online
Visit the Smileie Website and Start Your Assessment
Head to smileie.uk and click "Book Your Free E-Consultation." You'll be guided through a short online form where you share basic details about your smile concerns — things like crowding, gaps, or bite issues. There's no account needed to get started, and the whole process takes just a few minutes.
⏱ Takes about 2–3 minutesThis initial step helps Smileie's dental team understand what you're looking to achieve. Whether it's mild crowding on a few teeth or a more complex alignment issue, every case gets personally reviewed.
Step 2: Submit Photos of Your Teeth
Upload Clear Photos From Multiple Angles
You'll be asked to upload photos of your teeth — typically a front view, left side, right side, and upper and lower arches. These don't need to be professional; a well-lit smartphone photo works perfectly. The dental team uses these images to conduct an initial visual assessment of your alignment and bite.
📸 Smartphone photos are fineTip: Use natural lighting and pull your lips back gently so the dental team can see your teeth clearly. The better the photos, the more accurate the initial assessment will be.
Step 3: Expert Review by a Dental Professional
Your Case Is Reviewed by GDC-Registered Dentists
Here's where Smileie stands apart. Your photos and form aren't reviewed by a chatbot or a sales team — they're assessed by qualified dental professionals under the supervision of Smileie's clinical director. They evaluate your suitability for clear aligners and determine which treatment category you may fall into: mild, moderate, or complex.
👨⚕️ Real dentist reviewSmileie treats all kinds of cases, including overbites, underbites, crossbites, overjets, crowding, and spacing. If your case isn't suitable for aligners, the team will let you know honestly — there's no pressure to proceed.
Step 4: Receive Your Personalised Consultation Results
Get a Tailored Response With Next Steps
After the dental team reviews your case, you'll receive a personalised response outlining whether clear aligners are right for you, what category your case falls under, and an indication of treatment duration and pricing. Smileie's UK plans start from £1,299 for mild cases and include your 3D scans, aligner sets, free refinements, a whitening kit, and two sets of retainers.
📋 Full transparency, no hidden feesThis is still entirely free and non-binding. You can take your time to consider the information, ask follow-up questions via chat, phone, or email, and only move forward when you're ready.
Step 5: What Happens If You Decide to Proceed?
Book Your In-Person 3D Scan at a Local Partner Clinic
If you choose to go ahead, the next step is visiting one of Smileie's trusted local orthodontists or dental partner clinics for a professional check-up and 3D intraoral scan. This ensures your treatment plan is precise, safe, and fully customised. Your scans are used to create a digital 3D treatment preview showing exactly how your teeth will move — which you'll get to review and approve before any aligners are made.
🏥 Local UK clinics availableOnce you approve your 3D plan, custom aligners are fabricated and delivered directly to your door. Most treatments take between 4 and 6 months, with visible results often appearing within 6 to 8 weeks. Throughout your journey, Smileie's care team and your local orthodontist monitor your progress to ensure you achieve the smile you were promised.
What's Included in a Smileie Treatment Package?
Every Smileie UK package is designed to give you everything you need without surprise costs. When you proceed with treatment, your plan includes an intraoral 3D scan at a partner clinic, a professional check-up and digital treatment plan, your full set of custom clear aligners, a professional teeth whitening kit, a dental monitoring device with free app access, free refinement aligners if needed (worth £300), and two sets of retainers to maintain your results after treatment.
Smileie also offers flexible payment plans from as little as £54 per month at 0% APR, making it accessible for a wide range of budgets. Their customer care team is available around the clock via chat, phone, and email.
If you receive your 3D smile preview and aren't happy with the projected results, Smileie offers a full refund — so there's genuinely no risk in getting started.
