angelButton
Award-Winning Innovation, Built Into the Aligner
Elastic mechanics play a critical role in managing complex orthodontic movements, but traditional bonded buttons can introduce challenges related to debonding, patient comfort, and additional chair time.
angelButton addresses these challenges by embedding the anchorage directly into the aligner design. This integrated approach improves structural stability, reduces the need for emergency visits, and supports a more consistent elastic experience for patients, particularly in longer or more demanding cases.
angelButton Features and Clinical Benefits
Integrated Structural Design
Manufactured directly into the aligner using precision positioning and structural optimization, angelButton resists deformation that can occur with traditional elastic cutouts - helping preserve aligner fit and tracking.
Flexible Elastic Placement
Buttons can be positioned at multiple locations along the arch, allowing orthodontists to customize elastic mechanics based on individual case requirements.
Ergonomic, Patient-Focused Geometry
A smooth, rounded mushroom-head profile reduces soft-tissue irritation, while optimized height and undercut design support reliable elastic engagement and improved patient comfort.
Versatile Clinical Applications
angelButton supports a wide range of elastic configurations, enabling orthodontists to apply auxiliary forces confidently without adding appliance complexity.

Complex cases simplified with the angelButton™
By Dr. Isaak Yelizar | Fall 2024: Orthopracticeus.com
Dr. Isaak Yelizar illustrates how he used Angel Aligner treatment plans with angelButtons to simplify complex cases. Like many of you, my first experience employing aligners was with the leading brand. Since then, I’ve had considerable involvement with various aligner systems and am always open to exploring new options, driven by Leonardo da Vinci’s maxim, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”
As an early adopter, any new offering must demonstrate a distinct advantage over current techniques to simplify the complex case management issues we encounter in daily practice. When I was introduced to Angel Aligner, it was explicitly the angelButton that intrigued me.
Angel Aligner with integrated angelButtons have transformed my approach to demanding cases. The angelButtons can be positioned on four to eight points on any tooth (Figure 1). With traditional hooks and bonded buttons, multidirectional movement is limited, and force is concentrated on the specific tooth to which the elastic is engaged...
