An orthodontic appliance includes a latch that comprises at least one clip with a region for receiving an archwire. The clip also includes a recess for receiving a post of the appliance and for coupling the clip to remaining components of the appliance. The clip includes at least one protrusion that extends between the post-receiving recess and the archwire-receiving region, and the protrusion serves to retain the clip in place on the post.
