Prosthetic dental treatments are the branch of dentistry that repairs the patient’s missing teeth and surrounding tissues. There are several therapy options for this. Dentures therapy is one of them. Dentures are effectively applied in Turkey based on the overall oral state of the patients and their requests, both fixed and mobile.
Fixed and removable dentures come in a variety of styles. As a result, we decide on the best course of therapy for our patients after completing a thorough oral evaluation.
In Turkey, we effectively apply all permanent and removable flexible dentures to our patients at a reasonable cost. Furthermore, compared to the United Kingdom and Europe, the price of dentures in Turkey is relatively low.
What Are Dentures and Dental Prosthesis?
Dentures are synthetic teeth that may be used when a person’s natural teeth are lost due to accident, illness, or age. Poor oral hygiene may be the root cause of various dental disorders, such as periodontitis.
Dental prosthesis may replace all teeth and even portions of the gums and surrounding tissues if root rot is present, but they can also replace only a few lost teeth.
Dentures may also be permanently set in the mouth or removed depending on the patient’s preferences and requirements.
How Do Dentures Work?
Dentures can do their job because they mimic the form and function of natural teeth. They may provide the look of natural teeth while also allowing people who have lost teeth to bite and chew food in ways that would not be feasible with missing teeth.
Some dentures are detachable and fit over the remaining teeth and oral tissues, while others are permanently glued. Both achieve the same goal, although their stability and strength vary somewhat.
While both removable and permanent dentures may increase chewing abilities, permanent dentures are sturdy and allow for a more substantial bite than detachable dentures.
Types Of Dentures:
There are several varieties of dentures available, and they are available in both detachable and fixed configurations. Your dental health and lifestyle determine the optimum kind for you.
- 1
Traditional Dentures:
Traditional dentures are a complete set of dentures designed to replace all teeth. These detachable dentures are worn over the patient’s gums.They can be personalized, but even so, the patient’s chewing and speaking skills may still need to be recovered to the level they previously had to lose their teeth and replace them with dentures.
- 2
Partial Dentures:
As the name implies, partial dentures do not replace a whole set of teeth. There are several forms of partial dentures, depending on whether they are removable or fastened.Removable partial dentures may be worn and removed as needed. In contrast, fixed partial dentures utilize some remaining teeth as anchors.
These are also termed implant-supported bridges and are held in place by metal posts placed in the jaw.
What exactly are permanent dentures? As the name indicates, permanent dentures cannot be removed, and fixed partial dentures are a form of permanent denture.

Snap-in Dentures:
In terms of permanency, snap-in dentures lie between fixed and regular dentures. They still need implants into the jaw, but the dentures “click” on these natural teeth substitutes.It offers them better stability than traditional dentures and enables people to chew harder meals than typical detachable dentures allow. Furthermore, they seem more natural than detachable dentures.

Custom Dentures:
Custom dentures enable patients to guarantee that their dentures are correctly fitted to their mouths, resulting in a more natural look and enhanced functioning—most dentures, whether conventional, partial, or snap-in, may be personalized.Immediate dentures are the polar opposite of personalized dentures.
What are immediate dentures? These dentures may be worn after teeth have been extracted, meaning they will not be custom-fitted to the patient’s mouth.
Cost of Dentures & Prosthesis in Turkey
The price of dentures in Turkey varies depending on the kind of prosthesis.
-
Average Price $500 to $1000
Complete and removable dentures cost in Turkey.
The cost of dentures in Turkey is determined by the material and technique employed.On the other hand, the cost of fixed dentures in Turkey would rise even more because fixed dentures need implant surgery. Fixed dentures are more expensive in Turkey since they are more comfortable and require more complex installation.
How Long Do Dentures Last?
Due to regular wear, your denture will need to be recoated, rebuilt, or rebased over time. Rebasing is creating a new foundation while maintaining the existing denture teeth. Also, as you get older, your mouth changes.
Because of these changes, your dentures get looser, making chewing difficult and hurting your gums. You should schedule an annual checkup with your dentist.
- Here are some recommendations for maintaining your dentures:
- Stand over a folded towel or water bowl while handling your dentures. Dentures are fragile and may shatter if they are dropped.
- Avoid allowing your dentures to dry out. Soak them in water or denture cleaning solution when you’re not wearing your false teeth. Never use hot water on them as this might cause them to distort.
- Brushing your dentures will remove food deposits and plaque and help avoid staining. Your dentures may be cleaned with an ultrasonic cleaner. Still, it should not be utilized instead of complete daily cleaning.
- Using a soft bristles brush, clean your gums, tongue, and palate daily before inserting your dentures. It increases circulation in your tissues and aids in the removal of plaque.
- Consult your dentist if your dentures are broken, chipped, cracked, or become loose. Don’t try to modify them yourself; this might permanently harm them.
- This will keep the dental prosthesis from getting damaged.
Conclusion:
Dentures are removable prosthetic teeth that are custom-made to replace lost teeth. Dentures are classified into two types: full and partial.
Once your teeth have been placed, it may take time for you to adjust to them, which might impair your saliva production, speaking, and eating. Dentures are essential since they are still vulnerable to tooth decay and damage.
