Hybrid Aligner Treatment in Colorado Springs and Woodland Park
We at Inner-Smiles Orthodontics think that your treatment plan should work for you, not the other way around. That’s why we offer hybrid orthodontic treatment, which is a versatile and very successful option that combines the benefits of traditional braces with the ease and privacy of transparent aligners.
Hybrid therapy can be the best choice for you if you want to fix your smile, receive orthodontics for adults, or get treatment for teens.
Hybrid Orthodontic Explained
Using both braces and clear aligners at different times during your treatment is what hybrid orthodontic therapy is. This could mean:
- First, use braces to fix more complicated problems with crowding, rotations, or bite. Then, move to clear aligners to finish.
- Putting braces on one arch (typically the lower teeth) and aligners on the other (usually the upper teeth)
- Putting on braces for a short time during a hard part of aligner treatment
- Using different techniques to speed up, smooth out, or make your therapy more predictable
Every smile is different, and hybrid therapy lets us tailor your care to help you reach your goals in the most effective, efficient, and comfortable way possible.
Why Choose Hybrid Treatment?
For many patients, clear aligners are a terrific choice, but not every case is a perfect fit for aligners from start to finish. With hybrid orthodontics, we can use braces for strength and aligners for subtle flexibility, depending on what your smile needs.
Benefits of Hybrid Orthodontic Treatment:
- Results come faster in cases that are moderate to complex
- More accuracy for difficult movements, including correcting a bite or rotating teeth
- More comfort and ease with fewer trips to the office during the aligner phase
- Treatment that is made just for you and changes as your smile gets better
- When aligners are put on visible teeth, they look discreet.
