Denture Attachments

What Are locator type Abutments Used For?

Locator type abutments are specially designed prosthetic components used to retain and stabilize implant-supported overdentures. Their low-profile design and pivoting mechanism provide excellent retention, comfort, and ease of insertion, making them ideal for patients with removable prostheses. PSD Loc system are commonly used in full-arch edentulous cases where implants support a removable denture.

At IPD, our PSD Loc system are compatible with major implant platforms and include denture PSD Loc abutments, housings, and inserts. These systems improve patient satisfaction by delivering secure, easy-to-maintain overdentures with predictable retention levels.

PSD Loc System Available

• PSD Loc Abutment for Overdenture: Standard locator abutments designed to retain full or partial overdentures, available in multiple cuff heights and diameters.

• PSD Loc Denture Inserts: Available in multiple retention strengths.

• PSD Loc Housing Implant Kits: Complete housing assemblies with metal casing, insert, and cap.

• PSD Analog: Designed to replicate PSD Loc geometry in stone and digital models.

All PSD Loc attachments are platform-specific, color-coded, and modular, providing clinicians with flexibility and patients with comfort and reliable retention.

Materials and Technical Specifications of Our PSD Loc Abutments

PSD Loc abutments and denture attachments are manufactured from high-grade titanium, ensuring wear resistance, biocompatibility, and long-term durability.

• PSD Loc Denture Inserts: Made from resilient nylon polymers, available in multiple retention strengths.
• Locator Housings: CNC-milled for precision fit, minimizing wear and noise during function.
• Anti-rotational design, torque control compatibility, and polished collars ensure tissue-friendly emergence.
• Certified under ISO 13485 and CE-marked.

These features allow IPD PSD Loc abutments for implants to integrate seamlessly into restorative workflows while maximizing patient comfort and retention.

How locator´s Abutments type Integrate with Digital Dentistry

IPD PSD Loc attachments are designed to support modern restorative workflows:

• Compatible with digital planning, CAD/CAM design, and 3D printing for precision prostheses.
• Facilitate accurate alignment and retention modeling for denture locator abutments and implant overdenture protocols.
• Reduce chairside adjustments and streamline laboratory workflows.

By integrating PSD Loc abutments into digital dentistry, clinicians can improve efficiency, precision, and patient satisfaction.

Clinical Applications of locator type Abutments

PSD Loc abutments are widely used to provide secure retention and stability for implant-supported overdentures. These systems, including locator type abutment and overdenture components, are ideal for restoring both partial and full-arch edentulous cases.

PSD Loc abutment overdenture solutions help maintain prosthetic stability while allowing easy insertion and removal, improving patient comfort and confidence.

By using PSD Loc attachments for dentures in conjunction with color-coded denture locator inserts, clinicians can customize retention strength to match patient needs while integrating seamlessly with the underlying implant platform. These applications make PSD Loc attachments a reliable choice for predictable, long-term prosthetic outcomes.

Custom Designs and Material Options for locator type Attachments

IPD offers a full range of locator types abutments, denture attachments, and denture abutments, designed for both conventional and digital workflows. PSD Loc housing implants and inserts are available in various retention strengths and colors, allowing precise adjustment of overdenture stability.

All components are manufactured from high-grade titanium for durability and resilient nylon polymers for inserts, ensuring biocompatibility, wear resistance, and tissue-friendly performance.

These material options and designs ensure that each PSD Loc abutment denture or overdenture attachment provides predictable fit, reliable retention, and long-term functionality, supporting clinicians in delivering high-quality, patient-centered prosthetic care.
