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 of the denture.

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

• weight loss
• tooth loss or wear
• bone loss
• ageing
• disease or illness
