Dentures are a great way to improve the appearance and chewing functionality of anyone with missing teeth. However, aside from routine maintenance, from time to time you'll need to have your dentures relined. Denture relining is the term for re-fitting and re-shaping dentures after they've become loose.

Your mouth and gums shrink as your mouth changes with age, and your dentures can become loose and uncomfortable. Denture relining ensures a new, comfortable fit.

2 types of denture relining

Permanent Reline: Typically, this is done in a dental lab. The advantage is that the plastic will be cured professionally, and the results will be long lasting and precision crafted. These can be made with both hard and soft relines for comfort.

Soft Reline: Typically this is done in the dentist's office. They're less precise, and the results do not last as long as hard relines. Soft relines are generally done only for minor adjustment.

• Your dentures will fit better
