Relines

This consists of adding new base material to the tissue side of a denture so it fits properly. Your Denturist will need to take an impression inside your existing denture.

Relining affects only the fit of your denture and will not change the appearance.

Relines are required when tissue changes occur due to resorption (shrinkage). This can be due to:

• loss of weight
• loss of teeth
• loss of bone
• ageing
• disease or illness
