What are Relines?

As your mouth changes due to natural aging, weight fluctuations, or dental health issues, your dentures may become loose or uncomfortable. A reline involves adding a new layer of material to the fitting surface of your denture, restoring proper fit and function without the need for an entirely new one.

Why is a denture reline necessary?

Once teeth are lost or extracted, the soft tissue and the bone that once surrounded your teeth start to resorb (shrink) and change their shape. In the event of extractions, this process starts immediately and is quite significant during the first three months. Over time, resorption will be ongoing, however some people experience it more than others.

These changes lead to the denture not fitting snuggly and becoming loose and uncomfortable. Patients often find that it is difficult to speak or eat due to the denture becoming unstable.

How long does it take to reline a denture?

We understand that for most people, going without their dentures is a daunting prospect. Relining a denture takes a few hours. If timed properly, in most cases, patients get to have their dentures back on the same day. It is important that relines are planed and scheduled in advance to avoid disappointment. If you would like to find out more about the process, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
