  I paid for a top arch back on March 19, 2024, and they sent me an impression kit. I completed the impressions, sent them and all of them were rejected. They asked me to order another kit, I did. I had an "expert" help me with the impression which he confirmed were good only to be told that they weren’t good and I needed to order another kit. I decided to get a refund and they refused to issue me any type of refund but wanted me to buy another kit from them 2 months later. I paid for 2 weeks express and it's been almost 3 months since this whole scam started. Now they stopped replying to my emails and I still haven't received my money back from them. This whole thing is * **** *** ********* are paid to promote the scam what a shame. I WANT MY MONEY BACK.

  I purchased the Shiny Smile Veneers online on Dec 19th 2023. Shortly after I saw a dentist that advised against my using the product. As I'm almost at the 14 day refund cutoff I attempted to contact the company on Dec 27 2023 and all phone numbers listed are either just beeping or listed as invalid. I did ship the impressions kit back unused and emailed them several times but have not received a reply.

  Cancelled order and returned impression kit unused. Asked for a refund minus fees and shipping costs to send kit. Was told that the two week window for returns had expired and would receive no refund despite the fact that they have done nothing toward my order. According to my records my order was placed within the two week window.

  This place has been giving me the run around since August 18th. They keep telling me the moldings I made are okay and to send them in and when I do they come back and say they aren't good enough. I paid them an extra $150 to have mine expedited and 4 months later I am still waiting . They mailed me a bottom set of veneers that didn't fit whatsoever and looked like I had a bad set of dentures in my mouth. The manager told me that I would get a refund if I had any more problems with them and the problems just keep continuing to happen. They are saying now I can't get my money back. I can never get a manager on the phone and when I do they just lie and assure me I will be happy. This is so not okay. I have paid them almost a grand and have a bottom pair of veneers that are a joke. My real teeth look better than these. I want a full refund back from this place. And someone should really consider shutting them down. I will take this as far as I have to go until I get my money back. So I'm hoping to get some help from you guys. Again I will send in the copy of my bank statement to show how much I've paid them. These emails I've included shows the lies where they said the veneers were ready to go and how they told me I would get a full refund if I took down the bad review. I did that once already and they promised me I would not have anymore problems, and they lied, they sent me bottom veneers that didn't fit, they told me they would refund me the amount I paid to have these expedited, a week later still no refund , so I had to call and get on their butts again. I'm not even sure if that amount even went in my account yet. I told them after I get my full refund and my veneers free of charge is when I'll take down the reviews. Until then I hope there customers see how bad they do people and take their hard earned money elsewhere!!

  Ordered these veneers in march.. paid over $900 up front for top and bottom. Order express shipping. They arrived and look like horse teeth. So I redid molds twice and received a new set today that look like big plastic horse teeth. I just want my money back. Do not fall for this scam!!! The teeth you see on their page or YouTube reviews are NOT what you get when they arrive!

  I ordered these after researching many companies and reading many reviews. My process started back in December. I did the impressions and they were accepted. I waited about 4 weeks to get my veneers which upon arrival did not fit. First let me explain that I got these to temporarily hide a space on my back left side as I lost a tooth due to a bone infection. I still have my wisdom tooth back there. So imagine my surprise when I receive these veneers and not only do they not fit! There is this floppy tooth on the back left side as they didn’t put an anchor tooth to support it. Now let’s go in to the fact they are misrepresenting what these actually look like. Their website shows these in a case and they look pretty and actually look like they could snap in perfect. The thing is that isn’t what they look like when you get them. What you get is a cheap piece of plastic that is uneven and cuts up your mouth. The picture on the website is actually a picture of a snap-on smile. This procedure is done only by prescription by a dentist. They also don’t tell you they only cover 13 teeth. Not your whole arch. Which makes zero sense because hey.. how are they supposed to snap and function properly? I have had mine remade 4 times and still they are as cheap and non functional as the first pair. This is after they asked me to redo my bottom impression and finally asked me to go to my dentist at my expense to have impressions custom made. In the 4 times they redid these do you think they offered rush shipping? Oh heck no. I left a review on their website giving them one star. This is after they sent me an email before I even received my first pair to give them a 5 star rating and they would give me a $25 gift card or a free veneer. Shady right? Needless to say, they did not put my 1 star review on their website. So basically you are only seeing reviews from persons who are bought off by a gift card. I would like my money back as I am not 100% satisfied. Not close! Buyer beware.

  I ordered a set of Shiny Smile Veneers on November 29, 2022 and paid $484 for them. I was sent an impression kit which I completed to the best of my ability and sent back to them. They rejected my impressions and told me that I must make a new set. I told them that making the impressions was very different from what I expected and something that I do not want to repeat. I asked for a refund. They refused to send me a refund and told me my only option was to make another set of impressions. I do not think I can adequately express how strongly I feel about making another set of impressions. I am seeking help to be released from this deal and to recover the monetary amount to which I am entitled.

  Hello , I bought the full set plus paid to get it sooner I also did not receive the percentage off on the product even though I used the promo code on the website but I decided to let it go . I paid on 12/1 got the set on 12/16 and today it's only 15 days since I got them and they already cracked when I clicked them out super gently. If you look at the Cracked spot there is no way I did it by misusing it . It's extremely narrow and was very thin when arrived . I absolutely love them !!! But paid almost $900 ( even though I put promo code and after paying just noticed that the promo code did not change the price . I treated those teeth with extreme care . Now I went to the website and noticed that the basic warranty they offer does not cover cracks ? Only if it came damaged and only once . That's extremely unfair. If the manufacturer made them too thin or not as strong of course it's not going to arrive cracked . It will Crack after a few times of use. I want a replacement of this set of veneers and also understand how to avoid the yellow stains starting to appear after a few times I put it on I do not eat nor drink anything but water with it . It's a shame I experienced good costumer service with them . I'm a single parent to a new born and saved for months to buy them . I don't even want a refund I just want a normal good product.

  Hello Lou,
  
  We are sorry about your veneer.
  
  We understand that you would like to get a new replacement, and we hope you understand that our website offers a warranty against breakage due to a manufacturing error. After checking the picture, we see that your veneer was broken due to a forced bite.
  
  However, our customer service will email you the solution, and we will wait for your response.
