Locator^® Fixed Prosthesis

Unlike the Locator Implant Overdenture, the Locator Fixed Prosthesis is designed to stay in position using Locator technology and cannot be removed by the patient. Supported by at least four implants, the Locator Fixed Prosthesis gives patients the confidence to smile and ability to chew food and speak with ease. Available in four materials, including high-strength BruxZir Zirconia, each Locator Fixed Prosthesis is carefully crafted by Glidewell's lab technicians to ensure an optimal fit and natural esthetics.

Further, existing Locator Implant Overdenture patients with at least four implants can upgrade their removable Locator Overdenture to a fixed restoration with relative ease, as this prosthesis can take advantage of their existing Locator abutments. Unlike the Locator Implant Overdenture, the prosthesis features a convex intaglio surface that allows for easy maintenance while remaining fixed in the oral cavity.

Glidewell’s Locator Fixed Prostheses are fabricated through a simple, predictable clinical workflow, and are an excellent option for patients looking for a permanent alternative to dentures that offers maximum dental function and a simplified maintenance regimen. The Locator Fixed Prosthesis includes proprietary rigid inserts within gold housings that seat over Locator Abutments connected to the implants. The strength of the inserts are such that the prosthesis can only be removed by the clinician (a Locator seating and removal tool is recommended for this purpose).

At Glidewell, we employ a dedicated full-service team of specially trained implant technicians to restore your case with the utmost care. Our all-inclusive pricing eliminates the fear of hidden costs. When you prescribe removable implant solutions from Glidewell, you will discover an easy, predictable and profitable approach to dentistry.
