Denture Repairs

Apple Denture & Implant Solutions offers same-day denture repairs and relines in Scarborough and Port Hope. Dentures can crack or break due to underlying issues. We examine both your mouth and denture to identify the cause and ensure it doesn’t happen again. Most repairs are completed the same day, and emergency repairs can be done within 1-2 hours.

Denture Relines

After tooth extractions, a continuous process called bone shrinkage or resorption occurs, with rapid bone loss in the first 6-12 months. To maintain a proper fit, dentures need relining every 2-3 years to adapt to changes in your gums. The frequency of relines depends on tissue changes and bone resorption, which can vary due to several factors.
• Loss of weight
• Poor oral hygiene
• Medication & substance use
• Disease or illness

Following a denture reline, you will notice decreased accumulation of food under the denture, along with an improved fit and increased comfort.

Types Of Denture Relines

There are three types of denture relines: soft, hard, and temporary, each suited for different levels of tissue and bone resorption and denture types.

Check out our blog: The Different Types Of Denture Repairs

Soft Denture Reline: Ideal for tender gums, it adds a cushioned buffer for a comfortable fit, lasting about 1-2 years.
Hard Denture Reline: Offers a longer-lasting solution with a solid material, ensuring a precise fit, typically used for full dentures.
Temporary Denture Reline: Used for very sore gums to reduce inflammation, meant for short-term use until a permanent solution is ready.

 Denture Rebase

A Denture rebase is needed after about 5 years of wearing the same dentures, as the acrylic base wears out faster than the teeth, and gum changes affect the fit.

Rebasing replaces the denture base for a better fit without needing a whole new set. Apple Denture Clinic offers various Denture solutions to restore and repair dentures to feel like new. Contact us today for a free consultation or to schedule a repair appointment!

Denture Reline & Rebase FAQ

What is the difference between a reline and a rebase?

A denture rebase is a more comprehensive adjustment of your denture. Rather than replacing the lining on the tissue side of the denture, a denture rebase replaces all of the acrylic material in the base of the denture. This type of adjustment is used when the teeth are in good condition, but the base needs a large adjustment that can’t be solved by a reline alone.

How often should you have dentures relined?

This can depend on a number of factors. A soft reline will last between 1 and 2 years, while a hard reline can last between 2 and 3 years. Other factors include how well cared for the dentures are, the patient’s oral hygiene habits, and the rate of degradation of the patient’s gums and bone structure.

Why is denture relining necessary?

Denture relining is a pretty routine procedure for denture wearers that helps ensure a comfortable fit. You should consider getting your dentures relined if:

  • Your dentures become loose
  • You feel pinching or rubbing on your gums
  • Your teeth are extracted 
  • Your dentures have just been repaired
  • You are experiencing constant discomfort

What is the difference between a hard reline and a soft reline?

The difference between these types of relines lies in the materials that are used. A hard reline uses materials that are similar to the hardened materials used to make the base of the denture. A soft reline uses softer materials that tend to be more comfortable for the patient when wearing the denture.

Why would I need to get my dentures rebased?

A denture rebase is a more drastic adjustment of your dentures and is typically needed when the denture teeth are in great condition, but the acrylic base needs to be adjusted. A denturist might recommend getting your dentures rebased if:

  • The base of your dentures is becoming weak
  • Your dentures aren’t fitting comfortably
  • You’ve damaged or broken your dentures
  • You want to make your immediate dentures your permanent set of dentures

How often should you get your dentures rebased?

The exact timeframe varies from one patient to the next depending on how rapidly their gums change shape, how they maintain their dentures, and their oral hygiene habits. However, on average denture wearers should consider rebasing their dentures after 5 years to ensure a more comfortable and precise fit.

Can I reline my dentures myself?

We would not recommend you relining your dentures. Odds are that doing so on your own will result in your dentures not fitting properly, and will put you at risk of irritating your gums and accelerating the degradation process. In the best-case scenario, this will lead to the dentures needing more work to properly fix the lining, which will cost you more. In the worst-case scenario, you may need to have the denture replaced altogether.

I just got my new dentures from Apple Dentures in Port Hope and I have to compliment Serghei for the great, great job he did on them! The new dentures are awesome! With the new method of making dentures that the clinic is using, I went in for one fitting and my full set of dentures were ready in two weeks without any further appointments! They fit perfectly and I haven't had even a minor problem with them. They are so good, I hardly even know I got new dentures! Serghei is always so pleasant and knowledgeable and takes all the time necessary to ensure a proper fit. I recommend them to anyone looking for a positive experience getting dentures.
