What is a Denture Reline (https://www.newyorkdenturedental.com/dentures/denture-relines/)?

Denture relines (https://www.newyorkdenturedental.com/dentures/denture-relines/) alter the shape of a denture or build up the interior with additional material to improve the fit and make it more comfortable. A soft reline uses a soft polymer layer to add a gel-like cushioning inside the arch of the denture where it sits on the gums. It can be helpful for individuals who are new denture wearers or experiencing bone resorption. A hard reline is made of harder plastic material to reshape dentures for a better fit.

A hard reline is ideal when dentures are otherwise in good condition however, the gums may have shrunken or changed shape, resulting in loose dentures.  A soft reline may be a better option if the gums are very thin or irritated. Often a full lower denture is only comfortable with a soft reline.  Our denture experts can determine if you need to reline your dentures and which type of reline (https://www.newyorkdenturedental.com/dentures/denture-rel...) each denture would need.

While some dental practices have to send dentures (https://www.newyorkdenturedental.com/dentures/) to an outside laboratory for relines, adding many days or up to a week to process, The Denture Center has its own on-site denture laboratory and a team of experienced denture experts.  We have been New York's place for quality Same Day Dentures (https://www.newyorkdenturedental.com/dentures/same-day-denture-repair/) as well as  Denture repairs (https://www.newyorkdenturedental.com/dentures/same-day-denture-repair/) and relines While-U-Wait (https://www.newyorkdenturedental.com/dentures/same-day-denture-repair/) since 1977.   Because your gums are dynamic and change shape, it is advisable to have your dentures relined every two years to ensure a comfortable, functional fit and prolong the life of your dentures.   If you have had multiple extractions or have recently lost multiple teeth,  shrinkage within the first year after that immediate denture will be substantial but will stabilize therefore, a reline check in one year rather than two is needed.
