Our dentures are customized to fit each patient, but they may not fit perfectly after a few months of wearing them as they do on the first day. Mostly, this happens when your jawbone changes shape and recedes as you age. At Calistoga Dental Group, we help you address all denture-related problems under one roof. We offer various services to achieve optimal dental health, from designing to relining dentures. Your search for reliable orthodontists to offer inexpensive services for denture relining can end by calling (707) 709-6058.

Whether Dentures Fit Your Teeth Properly?

Resorption occurs when the body takes calcium from the jawbone that your teeth no longer stimulate. This calcium is then dispersed to other areas of the body. Aging often results in natural tooth loss, but we can avoid such resorption through dentures. However, you need to adjust dentures occasionally as the jaw continues to recede. Choosing a relining procedure within our office makes this alteration possible. Fix an appointment today, so we can determine if your denture always fits the tooth.

Relining is the process of reshaping the underneath of dentures to increase comfort when they rest against the gums. We can choose from a hard or soft reline, both with their own merits and drawbacks. Patients either opt for in-house services or send dentures to a lab. We recommend consulting our dental professional to decide which solution is best for you.

Our Denture Relining Types

Soft Reline

With soft relines, we use liquid polymers to create depth and a cushion in the denture. This "cushion" is usually more comfortable than a hard reline and takes a relatively short time. Patients can receive the soft reline chairside and avoid having to send the dentures to a lab. Walking into our office will allow you to go several days with temporary dentures or nothing.
In contrast to a hard reline, a soft reline requires more frequent visits to keep up with receding jaws and may not last as long. At Calistoga Dental Group, we advise on relining solutions depending on one's lifestyle, including communication and eating habits.

Hard Reline

A hard reline involves using material much more similar to the rigid base of the denture. While hard and soft relining accomplish the same goal, the former solution yields a more permanent result. While some professionals can finish the hard reline chairside, many recommend sending it to a dental lab to ensure everything goes smoothly.
A hard reline, however, will require more time as it is done in a dental lab. We will discuss possible replacement options in this case and help to determine the best course of action for the patient. Relining dentures can be complex; we suggest visiting our office rather than performing it at home without involving an expert.
