Comfortable Denture Relines in Sacramento

Denture “fit” is ever-changing. The ridge part of your jaw begins to remodel itself as soon as teeth are extracted. The greatest change in this bone happens in the first several months after tooth removal. Eventually, the rate of bone shrinkage becomes less and less, but bone shrinkage never entirely stops happening. Bone and gum shrinkage is inevitable. What can be done to accommodate this changing foundation? Denture Reline. Denture Reline is a process we use to re-fit an existing denture to a mouth that has changed enough that the fit is uncomfortable, loose, or both. How often the need for refitting (Denture Reline) depends upon the individual. Some people need denture relining as often as once or twice a year. Others can go longer. No two people are the same. New impressions of your mouth are made, and new material is bonded to the existing denture, thus making the comfort and stability as up-to-date as possible.
