Denture Relines: All You Need to Know

denture relines

Are your dentures loose and causing sore spots or trouble eating? At Premier Dentures, we make loose dentures fit like new quickly, affordably, and comfortably. Over time, natural bone loss and gum changes can cause dentures to loosen, making them uncomfortable or unstable. A denture reline restores a secure fit so you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.

What is a Denture Reline?

A denture reline is the process of refitting the inside of your existing denture, so it matches the current shape of your gums and jawbone. Our on-site lab makes this process fast and convenient. Patients walk out the same day with a denture that feels more comfortable and secure.

What to Expect During your Visit

  • Evaluation – We’ll examine your denture and gums to determine the best type of reline.
  • Impressions – A new mold of your mouth is taken to ensure a perfect fit.
  • Reline Process – Our on-site lab adds the new acrylic or soft liner inside of your denture to restore fit and comfort.
  • Same-Day Results – You leave with a snug-fitting denture and relief from discomfort and sore spots.

Types of Relines

  • Standard Reline – Adds new acrylic to fill any gaps between your denture and gums. Great for improving overall fit.
  • Soft Reline – Uses a soft, cushion-like material (Usually Silicone) for patients with sensitive gums or frequent irritation. 
  • Rebase – Replaces the entire worn-out acrylic base of your denture while keeping your existing teeth, great for dentures with constant cracks or breaks.

Cost of a Denture Reline

At Premier Dentures, we keep pricing simple and affordable:

  • Relines range from $275-$375 Per arch, depending on the type of reline needed.
  • We also offer temporary relines starting at $75 per arch. A great option for when you’re healing after extractions or need a budget-friendly short-term fix.

Benefits of Denture Relining

Denture relining offers you the following benefits:

  • A better fit — A relined denture fits better giving you the confidence to eat, talk, and smile without worry.
  • Improved hygiene — Reduces gaps where food and bacteria can get trapped.
  • Prevents cracks and breaks — A relined denture distributes pressure evenly preventing unwanted cracks and breaks.
  • Longer lifespan — Extends the life of your denture by re-strengthening the denture base.

DIY Denture Relines at Home

It is not recommended to reline your dentures at home. The denture DIY home kits are only meant for temporary fixes or emergencies. If the DIY procedure goes wrong, it can make your denture unusable. It’s best to have your denture relined by a professional to ensure comfort, durability, and safety.

FAQs About Denture Relines

Most relines are completed the same day.

If your denture teeth are still in good shape but the fit feels loose or uncomfortable, a reline is usually the best option. If the denture base is severely cracked, worn, or discolored, a replacement may be recommended instead.

If your dentures are loose, slipping, causing sores, or require frequent adhesive, it’s time for a reline.

Most relines are done the same day in our on-site lab. You’ll only be without your denture while the work is being completed.
