Hybrid Treatment.

Hybrid treatments combine different modalities for efficient, effective results.

Brackets and aligners, one plan.

Hybrid treatment puts brackets and aligners in one treatment plan. Brackets go on first through 3D indirect bonding, aligners carry the remaining movement, and clear retainers hold the result at the end.

  • You review bracket placement before trays are made
  • Pontics and attachments available on the aligners
  • Retainers included, with no additional scans needed

What does hybrid treatment solve?

Hybrid treatment starts in brackets to correct torque, tip and verticals, then moves the patient to aligners for the finish. Brackets come off sooner, and the rest of treatment is easier for aesthetics and oral hygiene.

  • Torque, tip and verticals corrected in brackets first
  • Finishing that’s difficult with fixed appliances
  • Patients who want aligners for most of treatment
