LAS VEGAS, Nev., USA: The latest technology in narrow-diameter implants was the highlight of the ZEST Anchors Pre-Symposium program at the ICOI Spring Symposium. The sold-out program, held at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas, was the ideal gathering place for clinicians wanting to learn more about treating the large overdenture patient population with the latest technology in narrow-diameter implants.

The four-hour program, titled “Utilizing The Next Generation of Narrow-Diameter Overdenture Implants to Expand Your Practice Revenue Opportunities,” was presented by Drs. Ara Nazarian and Paresh Patel.

It reviewed the demographics of the quickly expanding aging edentulous population, as well as products and techniques that clinicians can incorporate into their practices to help gain patient acceptance for the implant-retained overdenture treatment option.

Of particular interest to attendees was learning how the new LOCATOR Overdenture Implant System, incorporating narrow-diameter dental implants and a world-leading overdenture attachment — LOCATOR, culminates into a complete system offering new options for patients with limited finances or those who decline bone grafting.

“When patients don’t accept an implant-retained treatment option, they are rejecting a better treatment in the long-run,” said Steve Schiess, president and CEO of ZEST Anchors. “We believe the LOCATOR Overdenture Implant System serves both the patient and practice by offering an effective, economical technique to secure patient’s dentures, ultimately resulting in increased treatment acceptance and increased practice revenue growth.”

The program concluded with a question-and-answer session with the presenters, as well as an optional opportunity to utilize LOCATOR Overdenture Implant system instrumentation to place the LOCATOR Overdenture Implant in sawbone mandibles.
