Hader Clips and bars - what is this?
The Hader bar system is the most popular of all bar systems due to its simplicity and economy. This system allows the prosthesis to rotate around the bar. The riders may be either plastic or the precious metal Ackermann clip. Another advantage is the superior retention, stability and the option of abutment splinting. Recommended use is processing the Horix Metal Housings into the denture using the Horix Processing Spacers, and then using one of the three grips of plastic Horix clips in the metal housings.
Locator attachments - what is this?
The Locator abutment is a very short abutment allowing the 'working area' of the attachment to be very near the soft tissue.
The Locator cap is the active portion of the attachment and this is large enough to allow for easy placement of the attachment over the abutment while still offering a very small and inconspicuous over-denture attachment. It is therefore easy for most patients to place this attachment and their prosthesis into the mouth and the retention and stability that is attained is excellent.
