Abstract

Implant-fixed prostheses and removable partial dentures are widely used as a traditional treatment method for partially edentulous patients who have lost multiple teeth. Recently, there has been increasing interest in implant-assisted removable partial denture (IARPD), which additionally obtains retention and support using a small number of implants. The IARPDs have higher retention, stability, and aesthetics than conventional removable dentures. It also has the effect of reducing the cost as well as the burden of surgery by placing a small number of implants at the edentulous site. In this case, the patient with a partial edentulous state that has multiple numbers of tooth loss in maxilla initially planned to be treated with implant fixed prosthesis. However, the treatment plan was changed to IARPD using Bar and Locator due to several factors. The clinical results were satisfactory on the aspect of esthetic and masticatory function.
