LOCATOR® Overdenture

 

The LOCATOR Overdenture System represents a paradigm shift in implant-retained prosthetics, offering dentists a versatile, predictable solution that dramatically expands treatment possibilities for edentulous and partially edentulous patients.

This innovative system combines narrow-diameter implants (2.4-2.9mm) with pivoting attachment technology accommodating 40 degrees of divergence, making it ideal for patients with compromised bone, financial constraints, or medical limitations.

The CAD/CAM-designed components ensure passive fit and optimal force distribution, while requiring fewer implants than fixed alternatives, reducing surgical complexity and cost.

The LOCATOR system provides a streamlined workflow with predictable lab fees that enhance practice efficiency and patient satisfaction.

Clinical Benefits

 

  • Expanded Patient Pool: Treats patients previously deemed unsuitable for implant therapy due to bone limitations or medical contraindications
  • Simplified Surgical Protocol: Narrow-diameter implants reduce osteotomy trauma and enable placement in confined spaces
  • Forgiving Placement Tolerance: Pivoting technology compensates for implant angulation discrepancies up to 40 degrees
  • Cost-Effective Treatment: Requires fewer implants than fixed solutions while providing significant functional improvement over conventional dentures
  • Patient-Friendly Maintenance: Removable design allows for optimal hygiene and easy component replacement
  • Versatile Retention Options: Multiple insert levels accommodate varying patient needs and allow progressive retention adjustment
  • Preserved Bone Health: Implant stimulation helps maintain alveolar bone compared to conventional dentures
