Candid Co. is a company that aims to improve the appearance of users' smiles with accessible products that focus on design and aesthetics.

The unique service offers a multi-step process for users to follow, with the first being that users must purchase the modeling kit for $95, which takes the form of a modeling tray that contains putty and takes the shape of users' teeth once inserted into the mouth. Once sent back to Candid Co., the molds are turned into [digital 3D renderings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/align-technology-itero), and Candid Co.'s orthodontists decide on how those who continue their interest in the service should be treated.

After the initial assessment, Candid Co.'s boxes of personalized [clear aligners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orthodontic-technology) and [professional-grade whitening creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/closeup-white-now) are sent to the user, with clear step-by-step instructions, along with online support if the user requires it. The brand claims to offers its teeth-straightening service for 65% less than the cost of traditional braces.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **DIY Orthodontics:** Expanding the market for teeth-straightening to individuals who would rather perform the orthodontic process themselves.
- **3D Dental Molding:** Big potential for automating and cutting costs in the dental industry by utilizing digital scans rather than traditional molds.
- **Remote Dental Consultations:** Creating opportunities for virtual consultations and treatments with dentists for those unable to access traditional care.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Dental Retail:** Opportunities for personalized dental delivery in the DTC space.
- **3D Printing:** 3D printing technology can be leveraged to digitize dental impressions and offer affordable and less invasive orthodontic treatments.
- **Telemedicine:** Facilitating the delivery of remote consultations and treatments with the help of connected health technologies.
