LOCATOR FIXED is a revolutionary FIXED full-arch treatment that uses the exact same abutment and workflow as the original removable LOCATOR attachment system.
It’s all in the inserts and housings! Whereas the Removable LOCATOR solution uses a flexible nylon insert and silver housing, the FIXED offering uses proprietary rigid inserts and a special gold housing.
With LOCATOR FIXED, you can easily convert your existing LOCATOR Removable overdentures into a permanent FIXED prosthesis, without the need for any changes to the underlying LOCATOR abutments. You just need a minimum of four implants to begin the LOCATOR FIXED journey.
Fixed Or Removable, We’ll Make It Affordable
Each solution mentioned above comes with its own set of life-changing advantages as well as its own unique price. After performing a thorough oral examination, reviewing 3D cone beam CT scans, and learning more about your specific goals, Dr. Gleave will provide a treatment plan and payment plan that meets your particular needs and specifications. Although full arch fixed dental implants are frequently what we recommend, we understand this treatment can have a higher price tag. That’s why we partner with trusted third-party financing companies and will file on behalf of your dental, and at times medical, insurance policies to ensure you receive a manageable monthly payment. Come in to learn more about your options!
