Initial career
In 1886, he took a position as a faculty to teach comparative anatomy and orthodontia at the University of Minnesota. He at the same time retained his own dental practice in Minneapolis. Angle's original interest was in prosthodontics, and he taught at the department in dental schools in Pennsylvania and Minnesota in the 1880s. In 1887, he published a 14-page paper in a textbook by Loomis Haskell, eventually known as the "first edition" of the seven editions he published from his famous book. He was later elected President of the Minneapolis City Dental Society in 1888 after he published the second edition of a textbook in 1890. He resigned his position as a faculty at the University of Minnesota and formally limited his practice to Orthodontics. In 1892, he published a third edition of a textbook called " Angle-setting and dental retention systems. Fourth edition, Angle-setting and dental retention and fracture systems from maxillae , was published in 1895. He then moved to St. Louis, Missouri with his family and his assistant, Anna Hopkins whom he hired in 1892. He earned a Bachelor of Medicine degree from Marion Sims College in 1897.
From 1892 until 1898 he was an orthodontist professor at Northwestern University Dental School, between 1886 and 1899 he was an orthodontist professor at Marion Sims College of Medicine and from 1897 to 1899 in the University of Washington Medical Department. He published the sixth edition of his textbook in 1900.
Orthodontics
In November 1899, he taught a Graduate course on orthodontia in his office at St. Louis where his students urged him to set up a school to teach Orthodontics. He founded Angle School of Orthodontia at St. Louis, Missouri 1900, where he formally established orthodontics as a specialization. With Angle, orthodontic specialties receive new impetus. He coined the term "malocclusions" to refer to anomalous positioning of the teeth and classified various abnormalities of teeth and jaws, creating equipment for their care and designing some surgical techniques as well. The standard angle device in a series of books and pamphlets, including the text he wrote, Treatment of Dental Malocclusion and Maxillae System Fracture: Angle .
His increased interest in dental occlusion and in the care necessary to obtain normal occlusion leads directly to the development of orthodontics as a specialization, with itself as the "father of modern orthodontics". The development of Angle classification of malocclusion in the 1890s was an important step in orthodontic development because it not only divided the main types of malocclusions but also included the first clear and simple definition of normal occlusion in natural teeth.
Angle is concerned with orthodontic aesthetics as well as functionality and so he collaborates with artist and arts educator Edmund H. Wuerpel in applying aesthetics into his field. Artists and dentists worked together for many years and Wuerpel often gave lectures on Angle's request, at St. Louis, as well as in Pasadena.
The Angle Orthodontist, founded in 1930, is the official publication of the Edward H. Angle Society of Orthodontists, a society founded in 1922, and published bi-monthly in January, March, May, July, September and November by The EH Angle Education and Research Foundation Inc. In 1901, he also founded the Society of Orthodontists who later became the American Society of Orthodontists.
Edward Angle has 46 patents on his behalf.
