Abstract
Retention, support and stability are discussed extensively in the literature. Various methods, choice of techniques, materials and concepts have been elaborated to attain the maximum of these factors. Stability prevents the unseating of dentures due to the horizontal forces acting on the denture. These forces are most of the time muscular but can also be foreign in nature. Studies have been carried out to modify various steps of complete denture therapy to improve stability in the final prosthesis. A literature search has been performed using PubMed, Google Scholar to identify studies published before 28th February, 2018 with key words complete denture stability, Evidence-based. 16 articles were hand sorted to be included in the current review. The criteria for selection was a direct discussion of one of the above key words as main focus of the literature. The present article is a compendium of researches which have been carried out in context of stability in complete denture, it also consists of evidence-based studies which have questioned some current practices.
