At Goonellabah Denture Clinic, we understand the natural changes in the mouth after tooth loss, where the gums and bone gradually shrink and alter shape. This unavoidable process affects everyone with missing natural teeth and can lead to discomfort and ill-fitting dentures. If you find your dentures becoming loose and causing discomfort, it may be time for a denture reline or rebase.
Our same-day denture relining service aims to minimise the time you spend without your dentures. Additionally, we offer soft relines, which provide a softer and more cushioned base for your lower denture. This spongy material is designed to alleviate pressure on the gums, offering relief for those experiencing constant pain or ulcers.

At Goonellabah Denture Clinic, we recognise that the fit of your dentures may change over time. Relining involves adding new material to the inside of your dentures to improve their fit and comfort. This process helps compensate for the natural changes in our gums and jawbone, ensuring your dentures fit snugly and function properly.
Our team uses materials and techniques designed to achieve optimal results. Whether you require a standard denture reline or prefer the added comfort of a soft reline, we are dedicated to restoring the fit and function of your dentures.

Denture relining is a procedure used to adjust the fit of removable dentures by reshaping the portion of the denture that comes into contact with the gums. Over time, the bone and soft tissues in the mouth may change, causing the dentures to become loose or uncomfortable. Relining involves adding a new layer of material to the fitting surface of the denture to improve its fit and stability.
The frequency of denture relining varies depending on factors, such as changes in the shape of the jawbone and gums, as well as the quality of the denture materials. In general, dentists may recommend having dentures relined every two to three years to maintain optimal fit and function. However, individuals experiencing significant changes in the fit or comfort of their dentures should consult their dentist for an assessment and possible reline sooner.
Determining whether denture relining is necessary depends on individual circumstances and oral health factors. If you experience discomfort, looseness or difficulty chewing with your dentures, it may indicate a need for relining. Additionally, changes in the fit or appearance of your dentures over time could signal the need for adjustment. To assess your situation accurately, it's best to consult with a dentist who can evaluate your dentures and recommend appropriate treatment based on your specific needs.
