IARPD in South Korea

IARPD is a treatment method that combines a small number of dental implants, typically placed in the front or premolar region, with a removable partial denture. Instead of replacing all missing teeth with multiple implants, this method uses 4–5 implants strategically to support and retain the denture. As a result, the denture becomes more stable, functional, and comfortable than a traditional removable denture, while requiring fewer implants compared to a full-arch implant system. The approach offers improved retention, better chewing function, and natural esthetics at a reduced cost.
