Hybrid Treatment
Personalized Orthodontic Treatment in Chelsea, NY
The benefit of seeing an orthodontist who specializes in tooth movement is that your treatment can be highly customized and adapted to your needs. Sometimes, it’s most appropriate to do a combination of orthodontic treatments, such as lingual braces on your upper teeth and clear aligners on your lower teeth, or clear aligners in the front and braces on the side where they are less visible. We are flexible and understand that treatment has to meet your or your child’s specific needs and lifestyle. Luckily, there are many methods for achieving great results!
Why Hybrid Treatment?
Every patient has specific orthodontic needs—whether they have crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, an overbite, underbite, crossbite, etc. Furthermore, every patient has a different lifestyle—some patients prefer discreet options, whereas others prefer to straighten their smile with traditional braces. Similarly, some patients are comfortable with their treatment duration, whereas others want to speed up the process as much as they can. The hybrid method of treatment allows for a fully personalized and customized treatment experience to meet all needs and lifestyles!

Benefits of Hybrid Treatment
There are many benefits to straightening your smile using multiple treatment options. Benefits will vary based on your specific treatment methods. However, most patients using the hybrid method of treatment can enjoy a completely personalized treatment, reduced overall treatment time and increased comfort.
If you are ready to get a healthier, straighter and more radiant smile, request a consultation with Dr. Pompei at High Line Orthodontics. In some cases, Dr. Pompei can determine whether hybrid treatment is right for you during your initial consultation. In other cases, she may recommend a hybrid method once you have already started orthodontic treatment to best adjust to your unique needs.
