FAQ
I need Pink Caps or Clear Caps!
- Caps need to be ordered based on the system, not the color. There are many different systems utilizing the same colors for caps. The graphic above labeled "Which System is this for?" should be used to reference what system you need to order for. The Locator R-Tx Caps are only compatible with the Locator R-Tx System which has a Metallic Pink color abutment as opposed to most systems that utilize a Gold color for the anchor.
The Caps I got are too big. Are those sold here any smaller?
- All Locator R-Tx Caps are the same sizes. They vary in retention strength, not size. If caps do not fit, then wrong system caps have been purchased. It is the best to determine which system you have prior to purchasing any caps.
Is it better to get the strongest retention caps!
- No it is not. Correct retention caps are determined for each person individually based on a number of factors. Mainly comfort and length of time caps last before they no longer hold. The target time frame is 6 months, but no more than 1 year. Most patients do not need the strongest retention. They just need the follow proper technique to maintain and take care of the Caps they have.
How long should my new caps last and need replacement?
- Original genuine caps designed to function for about 6-12 months. Proper maintenance and regular cleaning is the key. If caps last you less than 6 months, then you may want to consider getting next level strength caps. Once you reach 6 months of comfortable use stay with that color.
- Make sure to use thumbs to press the fixture down into place in the first few days after replacement of caps and NOT jaw to snap in place.
Do I need a tool to remove and replace caps?
- Yes you need either the Locator R-Tx Insertion/Removal Tool (part number 30021-01) or the Universal Multi-System Insertion/Removal Tool (part number 488EIP-IQ)
- Without a tool you most likely will damage the Caps at the very beginning and they will not work.
Caps I bought do not fit. Can they be returned?
- The only way caps do not fit is when they are purchased for the wrong system. If manufacturer's seal is broken, package cannot be returned as it is considered a HAZMAT.
- Check which caps you need and for which system prior to purchasing. Our pre-sale support is available if needed.

These made all the difference for me, I was so disappointed that I was having so many issues snapping in my dentures. As soon as they swapped these for the the two side implant locators I didn’t have any more problems, they snapped right in.CHECK THE PACKAGE this last set I purchased only had three in the tube factory sealed. Unfortunately I didn’t open it until 3 months later.

If you don't want movement then these are perfect. Glad I went with them. I did notice that they don't fit on the pusher tool like the other ones but as long as you place them by hand you can use the tool to push them in.
