What Is Denture Stabilization?
Stability is key to the success of dental dentures. If you've ever worn dentures, you know that they can be quite uncomfortable, and if not properly fitted, they can cause a great deal of undesirable movement within the mouth. This is where denture stabilization comes in.
Instead of worrying about their dentures moving around in their mouth, people can now enjoy the benefits of stabilized dentures.
In short, denture stabilization refers to the process of adding implants to hold the dentures in place. Thanks to denture stabilization, people can now take advantage of the affordability of dentures without having to deal with many of their disadvantages.
While single-tooth implants are the most common, dentures are a great way to replace a larger number of teeth. Dental stabilization can restore a patient's ability to chew, improving digestion and overall health.
Implants are used to keep the dentures firmly in place, making them a viable option for those who may have otherwise refused to wear them.
Not only that but stabilized dentures make it also easier to speak and are considerably more comfortable than their traditional counterparts. They are easy to clean, which can help patients maintain the health of their oral cavity and reduce irritation and inflammation.

Benefits of Denture Stabilization
Denture stabilization is a game-changer procedure that can positively impact different aspects of your life. Here are some of the benefits you can expect:
- Improved digestion and chewing: Properly chewing food is essential for good digestion. Denture stabilization allows patients to chew their food with ease, leading to better digestion and overall health.
- Increased comfort: Traditional dentures can be uncomfortable, but stabilized dentures provide a more comfortable fit. Patients no longer would worry about their dentures shifting or causing irritation.
- Easy to clean: Stabilized dentures are just like real teeth. Patients can brush and floss as they normally would.
- Reduced risk of gum infection: Traditional dentures can cause gum irritation and sores. With stabilized dentures, patients can say goodbye to these uncomfortable side effects.
- Better speech: Stabilized dentures are unable to move around in the mouth, which means patients can speak more clearly and with greater ease.
- Permanent solution: Implants used for denture stabilization provide a long-lasting solution to missing teeth. Patients can feel confident knowing that their dentures will stay securely in place.
Types of Stabilized Dentures
Denture stabilization comes in two types: ball-retained and bar-retained dentures:
Ball-Retained Dentures
Also called stud-attachment dentures, these dentures are designed with metal attachments that fit onto implants in the jawbone. These attachments typically take the shape of a ball and socket, with the implant attachment being the ball and the denture attachment being the socket.
Bar-Retained Dentures
These dentures require at least two to five implants in the jawbone. The denture is placed over the bar, and either the implants or dentures may have attachments to clip them all together.
The Procedure of Denture Stabilization
The dentist will begin by conducting a comprehensive exam to evaluate a patient's eligibility for implants. They will also inspect the current denture to ensure it is in good condition and can work well with implants: The procedure steps include:
1. Examination
The dentist will only proceed with the implant procedure once they have verified that the patient's jaw and gums are healthy enough to support the implants. After all, proper placement requires a sturdy jawbone and healthy gums.
2. Placing the implants
The implants will be surgically placed into the jawbone through a small incision, and osseointegration will take anywhere between 3 to 6 months to occur.
3. Attaching the bar
Once the gums have fully healed, a bar or abutment will be attached to the implant. This process requires reopening the tissue and attaching the device directly to the implant, and it takes approximately 2 weeks to heal.
4. Denture fabrication
While the patient is undergoing the above process, the lab will be fabricating their dentures to ensure a perfect fit according to their specific impressions.
Risks of Denture Stabilization
Denture stabilization is an excellent solution for many dental issues, but like any procedure, it comes with potential drawbacks and side effects. Here are a few drawbacks to consider before deciding whether this is the right option for you:
- One of the primary concerns associated with implant placement is the requirement for oral surgery. Surgery is always a risky procedure, particularly for patients who have pre-existing medical conditions.
- While dental implants have a high success rate, they are not foolproof. There is always a small risk of implant failure, which can occur for a variety of reasons.
- The attachments may require tightening over time. Additionally, the overdenture may need to be replaced periodically due to wear and tear.
Cost of Denture Stabilization in Turkey
The cost of denture stabilization can be quite variable. In sum, the exact cost depends on a number of factors such as the type of implants used, the number of implants needed, and the complexity of the procedure.
In Turkey, clinics charge between 280-450 US dollars for the procedure. In other countries, such as the United States, the cost can go up to 3000 US dollars. This makes Turkey a more desirable destination for such procedures.
