The Morelli Stainless Steel Twirl-On Ligature Applicator is a one-piece stainless steel hand instrument used for attaching and removing elastic ligatures. It carries two active tips: an applicator tip that seats the elastic ligature onto the bracket wings and an extractor tip shaped for lifting the ligature off again. The solid stainless steel body runs from tip to tip, giving a rigid, corrosion-resistant instrument for daily chairside use.
