About the turn of the twentieth century, Wuerpel became friends with the early Orthodontics pioneer Edward Angle.
Angle was concerned with the aesthetics of orthodontics as well as functionality and so he collaborated with the artist and art educator Edmund H. Wuerpel in applying aesthetics to his field.
Edward Angle, who is considered the father of modern orthodontics, was the first to classify malocclusion.
