Tools: Hemostat/Mosquito pliers and ligature director with a small head (optional)
Ligature material: Conventional o-ring
When to use it: When alignment is almost normal. This ligature will not provide tip control when used with the vertical slot.
Technique: Place o-ring behind the occlusal tie wing and over the gingival hook. When ligating lower anterior brackets, it is important to go occlusal to gingival when placing regular o-rings.
