A Complete and Natural Smile with Dentures
Tooth loss isn't just an aesthetic concern; it directly impacts your digestive and speech functions. At Inter Dental Turkey, we offer advanced denture solutions to restore your missing teeth and bring back your confident smile. Whether you need full or partial replacements, our custom-made, natural-looking, and comfortable dentures are designed to fit your unique facial structure and lifestyle.
Our Denture Treatment Options
1. Full Dentures
Ideal for patients missing all their teeth in an arch. This traditional, reliable solution supports your facial muscles, preventing the "sunken" look and restoring a youthful appearance. We offer two main types:
- Metal Framework Full Dentures: Features a biocompatible, thin metal base inside. It conducts heat better, allowing you to feel the temperature of your food naturally, and allows for a less bulky, thinner design.
- Full Acrylic Dentures: Crafted entirely from high-quality, gum-colored acrylic. It is an economic, lightweight option that is easy to repair or reline in the future.
2. Partial Dentures
If you still have some healthy natural teeth, partial dentures use them for support. They seamlessly fill the gaps while preserving the balance of your jawbone.
- Metal Framework Partial Dentures: Attaches to your natural teeth using thin metal clasps. The cast-metal framework provides maximum durability and a secure fit.
- Full Acrylic Partial Dentures: Made entirely of acrylic, often used as an immediate, temporary solution before permanent treatments, or as a more budget-friendly alternative.
3. Implant-Supported Dentures (Snap-On)
The ultimate modern solution for patients who struggle with loose or shifting removable dentures. These securely attach to titanium implants placed in your jawbone via a special locking mechanism. This provides maximum stability, completely eliminating sore spots and the fear of your dentures slipping while eating, speaking, or laughing.
Ball Attachment Supported Overdenture Prostheses
This system utilizes a classic ball-and-socket mechanism to anchor your denture securely to the implants. It provides excellent retention, making it a highly reliable and cost-effective option for stabilizing your prosthesis, especially in the lower jaw.
Locator-assisted Overdenture Prostheses
Featuring a more advanced, low-profile attachment system, locator abutments snap the denture firmly into place. They offer superior durability, easier maintenance, and allow for a slight pivoting action which reduces stress on the implants. It is also an ideal choice for patients with limited vertical space in their mouth.
4. Precision Attachment Dentures
An excellent aesthetic alternative for those who dislike the visible metal clasps of traditional partials. The supporting natural teeth are crowned, and the denture attaches via a hidden interlocking mechanism. It offers a completely natural smile, superior retention, and absolutely no visible metal.
5. Flexible Dentures (Valplast)
Designed for patients allergic to traditional rigid acrylics or those who dislike the feel of metal. Made from a translucent, gum-colored flexible material, they contain no metal clasps, are highly resistant to fracture, and are so lightweight you’ll barely notice you are wearing them.
6. Immediate Dentures
Ensures you never have to go a day without teeth. Placed immediately after tooth extraction, they maintain your aesthetic appearance and help shape your gums as they heal, serving as a perfect transitional solution until your permanent dentures are crafted.
7. Denture Repair and Relining
Over time, natural changes in your jawbone can cause your dentures to become loose. Whether your denture is fractured, cracked, or has simply lost its snug fit, our laboratory can quickly repair and "reline" it to perfectly match your jaw's new contours, safely extending the life of your prosthesis.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will my new dentures look natural?
Absolutely. Our multidisciplinary team meticulously designs your dentures to complement your facial structure, gum color, and natural smile. We use high-grade acrylics and porcelain materials to ensure they look virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth.
How long does it take to get used to new dentures?
It usually takes a few weeks. You may notice slight differences in speaking and eating at first, but as your cheek and tongue muscles adapt to the new appliance, it will begin to feel completely normal and comfortable.
Can I eat normally with dentures?
We recommend starting with softer foods cut into small pieces during your adjustment period. Once adapted, you can enjoy most foods comfortably. Implant-supported dentures, in particular, restore a chewing force very close to that of your natural teeth, allowing you to eat whatever you like.
How long do dentures typically last?
With proper care, traditional dentures can last 5 to 10 years. However, because your jawbone naturally changes shape over time after tooth loss, your dentures may require periodic relining or rebasing by our clinic to maintain a perfect, snug fit.
Do I need to use denture adhesives?
A well-fitting denture crafted by our experts shouldn't require adhesives for everyday use. However, some patients prefer a small amount for extra confidence. If you find your dentures constantly slipping, it is a sign they need relining or you might want to consider our implant-supported options.
How should I properly clean my dentures?
You should brush them at least twice a day using a soft, non-abrasive denture brush and specific denture paste (regular toothpaste can scratch them). Soaking them overnight in water with a denture-cleansing tablet helps maintain hygiene, removes stains, and extends their lifespan.
Is it safe to sleep with my dentures in?
It is highly recommended to remove your dentures at night. Taking them out gives your jawbone and gum tissues time to rest and breathe, which helps prevent potential fungal infections or tissue irritation.
Can I complete my denture treatment during a holiday in Turkey?
Yes! Many of our international patients enjoy a relaxing holiday in Antalya while receiving their treatments. Depending on the specific type of denture, the entire process usually takes about 5 to 7 days, leaving you plenty of time to explore the beautiful Turkish Riviera.
