In this video we're going to talk about locator attachments and hen you might replace the males for increased retention. Chris, talk to me about locator attachments and what goes wrong and why you might need to replace those males? Sure. So there's eight different retention levels of locator attachments. There could be a number of reasons why you would need to replace the males. On average once every 12 months you're gonna want to have the patient come back in for a recall visit you're going to want to check for a realign clean the denture and also replace the inserts. Okay, but they sort of wear over time is that just part of normal wear and tear on benches? Absolutely. And the whole idea is that we have we're on the nylon easily replaceable components instead of on the abutments. Right. It's one of the reasons that the locator works better than other implant abutments is that all the movement in the locators between the metal housing and the insert so the insert stays in intimate contact with the abutment as opposed to previous systems where the insert is moving up and down on the abutment all the time and it wears the above. Okay, that makes a lot of sense. What we got here is a lot of different colors. Sure. So there's actually eight different retention levels for the locator attachment. There's the extender range that give more pivot and movement. It's great for patients with limited dexterity people who might not have the best hygiene and have food clog up the inside of the abutments. Anytime you have three or more implants I recommend using the extended range. Okay. The standard inserts are great for a two implant over denture. Grabs them the above inside and out it gives a lot of retention. So if we have a patient come in and say my prosthesis feels loose or I want more retention first thing I look at is a realign. After I look for a realign it's very easy to remove the inserts so I'm going to loosen up the tool a couple turns place it inside the denture I'm going to grab the insert So basically all you need to do is jump in use the tool take out that insert and then use the tool to put the second one back in it. Up and snap it ready. Okay cool. So is it as simple as that pretty much take out the old one put in the new one as long as you've got the right sizing and so forth patients are reporting pretty good results in? Absolutely. There's only one size for the locator attachment this is the one tool you need to work with insertion and removal very simple. Thanks very much Chris.
