MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641094894 A) filed by Dayananda Sagar College Of Dental Sciences on August 05, 2026, for A Degree-Marked Orthodontic Torque Measuring Plier For Direct Chairside Assessment Of Archwire Torsion.
Inventors include Dr. Prajwal Prabhu; Dr. Hemanth M; Dr. Poukhuan Panmei; Dr. Afshan Saman; Dr. Abdul Naisam; Dr. Dipasha Rao; and Dr. Dharini M.
The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.
Abstract: An orthodontic tool intended for precise and effective archwire torque assessment during clinical procedures is the subject of the current invention. Protractor-based conventional torque evaluation is labor-intensive, operator-dependent, and prone to subjective mistakes. The invention presents TorqPro, a degree-marked torque measuring plier with calibrated angular marks built right into the plier's design. Without the use of additional tools, the gadget allows for the direct chairside measurement of the torsional angulation of rectangular archwires. TorqPro increases torque evaluation's accuracy, dependability, and clinical efficiency by lowering operator variability and measurement time.
