COURSE OVERVIEW

Incorporating the locator fixed treatment option into an implant-based practice requires a clear understanding of patient identification and case selection.

By distinguishing between traditional options and the locator fixed modality, professionals can then make informed decisions in their practice and understand the nuances, benefits, and potential challenges of each approach. With hands-on techniques and real-world case studies, this session provides actionable insights for immediate application in a clinical setting.
