Rebase & Repairs
Rebase
A soft liner is a layer of soft, pliable material that is fitted between the surface of a denture and your oral tissues. It absorbs shock between the hard base of your denture and your gums. Soft liners can be used when creating new dentures or retrofitted into existing dentures.
Permanent soft liners provide comfort and relief for individuals with receded and flattened gum tissues that don’t respond well to the stress of dentures. They may also be a suitable solution for patients with chronically sore gum tissues or gums with sharp bony areas.
Reasons for the rebase procedure may include:
Broken or damaged denture
Weakened or old pink denture base
Replacement of an immediate denture
Denture Repairs
A variety of circumstance can lead to a damaged denture and should be addressed immediately. Repairs restore a fractured or damaged denture close to its original condition. Wisteria Dental Care can often provide denture repair procedures on a same day basis. Dr. Patel will advise you of the condition of your denture and will recommend steps needed in preventing further breakage.
