We at Encino Dental Practice understand the importance of having dentures that fit comfortably. As your dentures age, they can become looser, causing discomfort, slippage, and difficulties eating or talking. Denture relines can help. Our team of professionals in Encino, CA, offers professional denture lines to improve fit and comfort.
This comprehensive guide will explain denture relines, why they are necessary, and the types of relines available. It will also show how Encino Dental Practice helps maintain a functional, comfortable smile.
Denture relining is the process of reshaping or resurfacing the denture surface in contact with the gums to improve the fit. Your gums can change over time due to various factors, including natural aging, weight loss, and bone resorption. These changes may cause your dentures to become loose and uncomfortable, causing sores, discomfort, and difficulty keeping them in place.
Relining your denture involves adding new material to the base, filling the gap between your denture and gums. This not only improves the fit and comfort of your dentures but also extends their lifespan. It is like giving your dentures a new lease on life, making them feel more secure and comfortable in your mouth.
It is a common experience that, as you age, your dentures become looser.
Relining your dentures can restore comfort and prevent issues such as sores, irritation, and difficulties in eating or speaking.
