Adjust your denture for a more secure and comfortable fit.
A denture reline reshapes the inner surface of your denture so it fits your gums more closely and comfortably. Over time, natural bone and gum changes can cause dentures to loosen, rub, or become unstable.
A reline adjusts the fit without needing to remake the entire denture. The process may be completed in the clinic or through a dental lab depending on the type of reline needed.
The advantage is improved comfort, stability, and chewing ability at a lower cost than a new denture. However, a reline is not suitable if the denture is badly worn or damaged, in which case replacement may be recommended. Alternatives include denture replacement or implant-retained dentures for greater stability. After a reline, allow a short adjustment period and return for minor pressure adjustments if needed.

A denture reline works by reshaping the internal surface of the denture so it better conforms to your current gum shape.
