DENTURE RELINING IN BOULDER, CO

Why Denture Relining Is Necessary

  • Improved Comfort: Denture relining enhances the fit of dentures, ensuring a comfortable and secure feel. It helps prevent sore spots and irritation caused by loose dentures.
  • Enhanced Functionality: Relining restores stability to dentures, allowing for better chewing efficiency and improved speech. It prevents dentures from slipping or moving around during daily activities.
  • Preserves Jawbone: Denture relining helps maintain the proper fit of dentures, which can minimize bone resorption and preserve the underlying jawbone structure. This supports overall oral health and helps maintain a natural facial appearance.

Over time, the jawbone naturally changes shape and recedes with age, which can affect the fit of dentures. Even though dentures are customized for each individual, it is common for them to become less well-fitting after a few months of use. This is where denture relining becomes important. Relining allows for adjustments to be made to the denture base, improving the fit and accommodating the changes in the jawbone. Regular check-ups with a dental professional are recommended to monitor the fit of dentures and make any necessary adjustments or relining to maintain comfort and functionality.
In summary, due to natural changes in the jawbone, dentures may not fit as well over time. Denture relining helps address this issue by adjusting the denture fit and ensuring a more comfortable and secure fit. Regular dental check-ups are crucial to monitor the fit and make any necessary adjustments for optimal comfort and function of the dentures.

Always Make Sure Dentures Fit Your Teeth

During the process known as resorption, the body leaches calcium from the jawbone that no longer has teeth stimulating it. The body then distributes the calcium to other areas of the body. While natural tooth loss is a common part of aging, we can help prevent resorption with dentures. Since the jawbone will continue to recede over time, the dentures will need adjustments from a professional. Fortunately, altering the size of dentures is an easy procedure that we can complete in our office, known as relining.
In simple terms, relining is the procedure in which we reshape the underside of the denture to make it more comfortable as it rests against the gums. There are two separate methods for relining, hard reline and soft reline, that we will use depending on the needs of the patient. During the relining process, we can complete this procedure in our office or send the dentures to a dental lab. With pros and cons to each, it is important to ask a professional for guidance on the most effective option.

Relining is essential for denture care

Dentures can last anywhere from 5 to 10 years. However, without proper care, their lifespan will be less than what many prefer. The most effective method for getting the best mileage out of dentures is by following care instructions from the dental professional and scheduling regular appointments for denture care. We can use a denture relining to help patients keep the same pair of dentures they are comfortable with and prevent them from spending large amounts of money on new pairs.
Soft reline
A soft reline involves the use of a liquid polymer that we layer into the denture to create depth and a cushion. This “cushion” will tend to be more comfortable than a hard reline and is a relatively quick procedure. In fact, patients can receive the soft reline chairside and avoid having to send the dentures to a lab and go several days with temporary dentures or nothing at all.
However, a soft reline may not last as long as a hard reline and can require more frequent visits to continue keeping up with the receding jaw. For some people, this can result in more visits and higher costs that they may not be able to spend. We understand that dentures are crucial to one’s lifestyle, including the ability to speak and eat. Thus, we will do everything we can to efficiently and properly repair the dentures.
Dental veneers
A hard reline involves using material that is much more similar to the hard base of the denture. While a hard and soft reline accomplish the same goal, the hard reline will normally produce a more permanent result. While some professionals can complete the hard reline chairside, many recommend sending it to a dental lab to ensure that everything goes without a problem.
