Implant Placement (2-4 Fixtures)
Two to four implants are placed in the areas of the upper or lower jaw where the bone is strongest, identified through 3D diagnosis, to serve as anchors for the denture.

Implant Denture in Korea
An implant denture anchors a removable denture on a small number of implants, combining firmer chewing than a conventional denture with a lighter treatment scope than full-mouth implants.
Final treatment plan, cost and duration are confirmed after in-clinic diagnosis.
Quick Answer
An implant denture (overdenture) fixes a removable denture onto 2 to 4 implants placed in the strongest areas of the jaw. Compared with a conventional denture, it grips firmly without adhesives, restores stronger chewing, and snaps on and off for easy cleaning. It suits patients who find full-mouth implants burdensome in cost or bone condition; if your jawbone is healthy, multiple individual implants may be recommended instead.
Who it fits
Patient concerns this page answers
- The cost of multiple individual implants feels burdensome.
- Your jawbone is not healthy enough and would require extensive bone grafting.
- You wear a denture but find it loose or uncomfortable.
- You are older and worried about extensive surgery with heavy bleeding.
Process
From photo consultation to in-clinic diagnosis
Attachment Fabrication
Once the implants integrate with the jawbone, custom connectors that link the implants and the denture are fabricated to fit your mouth precisely.
Denture Fixation and Adjustment
The denture is secured onto the implants with button-type attachments tightened to the set position so it does not slip, then the fit and bite are fine-tuned. You can still remove it yourself for daily cleaning.

Honest Recommendation Between Options
If your jawbone is healthy, multiple individual implants may serve your gum health better, and we will tell you so. The implant denture is recommended when it genuinely fits your bone condition, comfort needs, and budget concerns.
Designed for Daily Comfort
Button-type attachments hold the denture without adhesives, helping prevent the gum sores that loose dentures often cause, and chewing strength improves because the denture is anchored to the bone through the implants.

FAQ
Questions Patients Ask
How is an implant denture different from a conventional denture?→
A conventional denture rests on the gums and often needs adhesive, while an implant denture clips onto implants anchored in the bone. This gives a firmer grip, stronger chewing, and less rubbing on the gums. It also snaps on and off without adhesives, which makes daily cleaning easier.
How many implants are needed for an implant denture?→
Usually two to four implants per arch, placed where the jawbone is densest. The exact number depends on your bone condition and the design of the denture, and is confirmed after 3D CT diagnosis.
Can I remove and clean the implant denture myself?→
Yes. The button-type attachments are designed so you can snap the denture on and off easily without adhesives. Cleaning the denture and the attachment areas regularly, along with periodic check-ups, keeps both the implants and your gums healthy.
