    • Smile in a Box works great

      There should be a local dental lab that can fabricate for you as well

      I purchased a Phrozen 3D printer with KeyGuide resin and now make my own. Send out my scans through RapidGuide from my Sirona CT on simple cases. More complex I will utilize 3Shapes guide service.

      • Heard good things about Implant Concierge. I’ve used 3DDX. Also, my buddies Nate Farley and Kent Howell are prosthodontists who started their own lab and they do loads of guided stuff: https://renewdigitaldesign.com

        • So if you were able to put locators on there and get rid of the bar and the new one snaps on and fits well, then the gap should be an easy fix where you can just do a reline of the denture and have the lab correct it so that you can have proper tissue support with no gaps. Again, when you do this kind of thing, I would always communicate to…

          • My best advice is to call your lab and have a good discussion on what they are able to do the most accurate as it will vary greatly depending on the lab. I’m sure you will be able to get the impressions you need and info for lab use what you have. Any other thoughts @ivan-chicchon ???

            • Hi @nairysekayan Preat.com has been such a tremendous resource for me. I would go on there and download some of their guides on bar attachments. These look like Hader Bar Clips btw.

              Also you want to make sure to use LOTS of block out when you do the pick up. I mean LOTS of it. Use wax or putty to get into the big undercuts

            • Hello hope all is well. If anyone can help me with this situation that will be nice.! I recently delivered a snap on denture on a patient. I use Neodent implants and I have used zest locators. I wonder if that’s right and if not what I should do because I figured that Neodent is not compatible with Zest and I had to go with Novalok.

              And if it’s…

              • Zest locators are made for Neodent implants and you would use the same zest locator driver to torque them to your implants. You always can call them in the future as well and they can confirms those questions as well as their website

                • Yup, i think that Zest is basically the go-to solution for denture snap-in abutments. You can’t go wrong with them.

                  I also like to use DESS abutments for denture snap-ins. Both work great.

                  Each of these denture snap in abutment systems has its own corresponding driver. One of the reason i like the DESS abutments, is that you can use a regular…
