Question 2

Does this tool work with the locator male green and red replacement caps extended range?

This Locator Core Tool is specifically designed for the Locator Legacy (aka Locator Classic) system , which Green and Red caps are part of.
Word of caution, so not to confuse other systems that may have similar color caps, but would not fit, they should be referred to by catalog numbers.  Green Extended Range Locator Caps are 08547 and Red Extended Range Locator Caps are 08548.  Those numbers would be mentioned in the listing.

Question 3

I have two questions. !.  How do I know that this tool is right for my denture?  2. Does this tool come with clear instructions?

Accepted Answer

First you need to know what overdenture system you have. There are several out there with Zest Locator Classic, Locator R-Tx or Equator/OD Secure being most used in USA.  That is extremely important as none are compatible with each other.  This tool is for Locator Classic system only.   It is also the only tool for this system as it covers everything.  You will need to ask your dentist.  Also most of our listings on Amazon for replacement caps have 2 photos of a mini guides to see key difference.
The tool is very simple to use, but still comes with manufacturer's Instructions of USE as well as an info flyer with simple to use pictures and descriptions.   There are also videos available by simple search for Locator Core Tool.   There is always our famous customer support and can assist almost 19 hours per day by phone.
