Hybrid case by Dr Faye Goodyear
How would you treat this patient?
- Age: 25
- Class II division 1
- Incisor relationship on a Class I skeletal pattern
- Upper and lower crowding
Initial Situation
Why Dr. Faye Goodyear takes a hybrid approach:
- More predictable having a fixed appliance in the lower arch
- More aesthetic having aligners in the upper arch
“Due to slightly increased overbite and the position of the 33, I felt that fixed appliances
in the lower arch would be more predictable. The patient's preference for a more aesthetic option
in the upper arch combined with less difficult movements allowed for a combination of upper aligners
and lower fixed appliances to be considered.”
– Dr. Faye Goodyear, Australia.
From start to finish
This case was done using Clarity™ Aligners Flex and Clarity™ Digital Bonding with Victory™ Series Low Profile APC™ Flash-Free Brackets.
