Who Needs Reline?
Relines are for individuals who already have dentures but may be experiencing changes in the shape of their oral tissues. Over time, the jawbone and gums can undergo alterations, affecting the fit of dentures. Relines help in adjusting and improving the fit of existing dentures.
Right Time for Reline
Relines are recommended when:
- Dentures become loose or uncomfortable.
- Changes in weight or oral health lead to alterations in oral tissues.
- There is discomfort, soreness, or difficulty in chewing with the current dentures.
Benefits of Reline
Enhanced Comfort
Relining helps improve the fit of dentures, reducing discomfort and irritation caused by loose-fitting prosthetics.
Optimal Functionality
Well-fitted dentures contribute to better chewing efficiency and speech.
Preservation of Oral Health
Properly fitting dentures prevent issues like sore spots or ulcers, promoting overall oral health.
Types of Reline
Soft Reline
Soft relines involve the use of a pliable material that conforms to the contours of the oral tissues, providing added comfort. This type of reline is often recommended for individuals with sensitive or tender gums.
Hard Reline
Hard relines use a more rigid material to reshape the interior of the denture. This type of reline offers a longer-lasting solution and is suitable for individuals who need a more durable adjustment to their dentures.
