REPAIR & RELINES
Creating the best fit for you
Denture relining is a procedure performed to improve the fit of existing dentures by modifying the base material to match changes in the shape of the patient's oral tissues. Over time, the bone and gum tissues in the mouth can change due to factors such as bone resorption, weight loss, or natural aging. These changes can cause dentures to become loose, uncomfortable, or unstable, leading to difficulties in eating, speaking, and general discomfort.
During a denture reline, the existing denture is refitted by adding a new layer of material to the tissue-bearing surface of the denture base. This new material conforms to the contours of the patient's gums, creating a snugger and more secure fit. Denture relines can be either soft or hard, depending on the patient's needs and the recommendation of the dental professional. Soft relines are made of a pliable material that provides cushioning and comfort, while hard relines involve using a more rigid material for better stability and durability.
Denture relining is a non-invasive procedure that can often be completed in a single visit to the dentist or denture clinic. It helps improve the fit and function of dentures, enhancing comfort and restoring confidence for denture wearers. Regular relining of dentures is recommended to accommodate changes in the oral tissues and ensure optimal performance and comfort.
