If your torque control begins and ends with the bracket prescription, you are relying on prescriptions and hoping for the best — and torque is deciding your outcomes, not you. Uncontrolled inclination is why treatments drag on, cases get stuck in mechanics, and complications like root resorption, fenestration and bone loss appear at the worst possible moment.

All About Torques in Orthodontics rebuilds torque from its foundation: the couple. Prof. Kleber Meireles starts with the types of tooth movement — translation, rotation and their combination — and how the line of action of force relative to the center of resistance determines what actually happens. Then the concept most clinicians never apply chairside: real torque vs relative torque, and how to assess relative torque clinically by reading the wire's position in the bracket slot or molar tube. From there, every major clinical scenario: inclination control during anterior retraction in Class II (sliding mechanics vs entire arch, 19x25 vs 17x25 wires, friction management), compensation and decompensation in Class III within the limits of the symphysis, controlling protrusion and extrusion side effects in biprotrusion and open bite retraction, individual tooth torque with TMA wires, and the finishing torques that lock in intercuspation and occlusal stability.

What's inside — 3 modules, 8 lessons

• Module I — Understanding the Basics: Types of Movement — Mastering the Couple
• Module II — Everything About Rectangular Wires: Real Torque; Relative Torque — including the clinical assessment of wire position in the slot
• Module III — Clinical Application of Torques: Torque in Class II Cases (Parts 1 and 2 — retraction without losing inclination, wire sizes, friction); Torque in Class III Cases (compensatory and decompensatory movement within bone limits); Torque in Biprotrusion and Open Bite Cases (profile improvement and bite closure during retraction); Individual and Finishing Torques (TMA wires, final intercuspation and stability)Included bonuses:

• Bonus 1 — Explanatory torque video library: 15+ short clinical videos, including real vs relative torque differences, retraction torque correction, the right moment to correct inclination (3 parts), the L-loop for intrusion, the two-couple torquing arch, the wagon wheel effect, and torque in excessively proclined teeth
• Bonus 2 — Torques e-book: Rectangular Wire — TorqueWho this course is for: orthodontists working with fixed appliances who want control beyond prescriptions — especially if you manage Class II, Class III, biprotrusion or open bite cases, or treat periodontally compromised patients where every millimeter of root position matters. It assumes you know the fundamentals (line of action, center of resistance); it is not for complete beginners, and its focus is fixed-appliance mechanics, not aligners.

15-day money-back guarantee. Watch Module II and check the relative torque on your next patient's working archwire — if it does not change what you see, request a full refund within 15 days.

Prof. Kleber Meireles has taught 700+ students across 131 countries, with treatments that used to take 4–5 years resolved in under 2 — by controlling movement instead of correcting it.
