Introduction: When treatments are performed in the mixed dentition, it is very common to need anterior alignment to correct large rotations or even to position the teeth properly in the arches.

Objective: The purpose of this article is to present a simple and very effective technique to solve problems in this phase, with greater control and comfort for the patient.
