Edward H. Angle, the father of modern orthodontics, was born in Pennsylvania in 1855. Angle entered the Pennsylvania College of Dentistry, graduating in the spring of 1876.  During his training Angle developed an interest in orthodontia, finding it a field in which he could apply his interest in mechanical design and invention.  In 1880 Angle invented his first dental appliance, a jack and traction screw.

Orthodontics

Angle contributed to the design of orthodontic appliances and operations.  He was best known for devising the first simple classification system for malocclusions, based on the first molar as the key to occlusion.  His classification system is still in use today for orthodontic diagnosis.
