CARLSBAD, Calif.—Zest Dental Solutions is preparing to welcome the newest
member of its tried-and-true Locator family: Locator Fixed. With no new abutment required,
the mo
ve to a Locator Fixed full-arch solution is seamless, and in most cases requires less bone
reduction and chairtime than traditional, screw-retained restorations.
Driven by flexibility and the goal of making an affordable, permanent teeth solution more
accessible, clinicians can now utilize patients’ existing or newly placed Locator abutments to
provide a fixed full-arch solution. Locator Fixed empowers them to offer staged treatment
planning—removable overdentures today followed by fixed full-arch tomorrow, simply by
switching out the Locator inserts and housings in the existing prosthesis followed by fabricating a
new prosthesis later.
Because Locator Fixed is designed to be less invasive, require less bone reduction, and is less
costly than traditional screw-retained approaches, patients will gravitate toward the chance to
experience the life they had with their permanent teeth with this paradigm-changing, permanent
teeth solution. Locator Fixed helps to address the challenge of tooth loss and make full-arch
fixed dentistry more attainable for more patients.
Clinicians can request more information and reserve a starter package, shipping in Q4 2022, and be among
the first to use Locator Fixed before the full market release in early 2023, by visiting
