Description

Flexible removable partial dentures (RPD) per arch are cost-effective prosthetic devices designed to replace multiple missing teeth in an arch with added comfort and aesthetics due to their flexible base material. Description for Flexible RPD Per Arch Material and Design: Flexible RPDs are made from nylon-based thermoplastic resins or similar flexible materials, which adapt comfortably to the gum’s contours. This flexibility reduces irritation, enhances comfort, and eliminates metal clasps, providing a more natural look compared to traditional acrylic or metal-based partial dentures. Function: They restore function and aesthetics for patients missing some teeth but retaining others, offering improved retention and ease of use due to the flexible base. Advantages: Lighter weight, fewer adjustments needed, better comfort, and no visible metal parts. Ideal for patients sensitive to rigid acrylic or allergic to metal. Cost Range: In India, flexible partial dentures per arch typically range from ₹7,500 to ₹20,000 depending on the number of teeth replaced, material quality, and clinic/laboratory standards. Suitability: Recommended for patients seeking a moderately priced, comfortable, and aesthetic alternative to conventional partial dentures with metal clasps.
