- Abstract
Various attachment systems have been used to facilitate the retention, stability, and support of overdentures. The low profile design, pivoting technology, and durability of the Locator attachment made it one of the commonly used tissue‐supported implant‐retained overdentures. It has been successfully used to retain overdentures as well as partial dentures. This article describes the uses of the new Locator R‐Tx abutment and illustrates both the direct and indirect techniques used to process the denture attachment housing into the prosthesis to retain overdentures and partial dentures.
