Denture Relining
Bone loss or residual ridge resorption is one of the common after-effects of tooth loss and aging. As the bone shrinks, dentures that once fit perfectly start to become loose. Loose-fitting dentures can lead to discomfort, oral health issues, and getting food or air trapped under your dentures. That’s where denture relining comes in! Relining the dentures, which involves the addition of a new lining at its base, is a cost-effective and easy way of improving a denture’s retention and stability.
Relining a denture is a must if your dentures are not fitting the way they should. Dentures tend to become uncomfortable due to age, jaw bone atrophy, or weight loss. Customers can count on us for:
- Soft relines
- Hard relines
- Temporary relines

How Do You Know if You Need a Denture Reline?
No matter how well-fitting your dentures are initially, with time they will eventually become loose. If you are experiencing any of the following issues, know that your dentures might need to be relined:
- Constant soreness or discomfort in your gums
- Discomfort or pain while chewing food
- An uncomfortable fit or a feeling that your dentures are loose
Even when these signs are absent, you should opt for denture relining at least once every two years. As dependable denturists, we can cater to your relining needs and provide quick services. With regular relining, you can maintain your overall oral health and prevent infections.
We offer flexible, personalized denture treatment plans that address all of your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I fix my dentures myself?
In the event of an emergency, there are denture repair kits that allow you to repair some of the damage to your dentures so you can still wear them. However, taking your dentures to a professional denturist for repairs is always recommended over this option. If you try to fix your dentures yourself, you could do more damage and the fix might not last.
How often should I reline my dentures?
Most patients have their dentures relined every year or two. However, this can depend on a number of things so it varies from patient to patient.
