Angelalign Replaces Torque Ridges with Pressure Points in Europe

The upgrade leverages refined engineering to move away from the inconsistencies of hand-made dimples, which have long served as the industry standard for applying targeted force. By utilizing a simplified geometry, the system ensures that pressure is applied precisely at the center of the intended point. According to company data, this configuration results in a 25 percent increase in tooth surface contact when paired with scalloped trimlines, offering orthodontists tighter control over torque corrections.

General Manager Xavier Cherbavaz noted that the rollout represents a sustained effort to solve ongoing clinical challenges through research-backed innovation. While the feature currently addresses torque corrections in a single configuration, Angelalign plans to expand the technology to include rotation and intrusion movements. The company, which has surpassed two million cumulative cases globally, intends to scale this digital approach across its international markets following the initial European launch.
