Denture relining is a procedure used to correct or improve existing dentures to provide a better view of the teeth. This process is usually performed by a dental technician or dentist. Here are some common steps of this procedure:
Consultation: First, you should consult with your dentist to review the condition of your current dentures. The dentist will assess whether rebasing is necessary and what changes should be made.
Preparation of dentures: The dentist will remove your current dentures and make the necessary preparations for relining. This includes cleaning and preparing the surface of the old denture to be rebased.
Use of new materials: In some cases, new materials can be added to dental prostheses or their color can be changed to improve the aesthetic picture.
Rebasing: The dentist will perform the rebasing of the dentures using the appropriate techniques and specific materials for this purpose. This process involves changing the shape, size, color and position of the dentures to provide an improved view of the teeth.
Testing and adjustment: After the rebasing is done, a test of the dentures will be done to ensure that they fit correctly in the mouth and do not cause any discomfort. If necessary, the dentist will make additional adjustments.
Finalization: After refitting and testing is complete, the dentures will be finalized and delivered to you.
It is important to have a clear agreement with your dentist about what you expect from the rebase procedure, the possible costs, and the time required to carry out this process. Also, be sure to store and use dentures carefully after relining to ensure they last as long and are effective.
Maintaining your dentures is important to ensure they stay clean, durable and fit. Here is some information and advice on how to care for dentures:
Regular cleaning:
Brushing dentures is important. Clean them after every meal with warm water and mild soap, or use products specially designed for cleaning dentures. Use a soft brush to remove the residue.
Avoid high temperatures:
Dentures can be damaged in high temperatures, so avoid washing them in hot or boiling water. Use warm water to wash them.
Avoid the use of hard meat and difficult foods:
Remember that dentures are susceptible to possible damage. Avoid digging into or touching hard foods, such as nuts, dried carrots, or hard candy.
Care of prostheses at night:
To maintain the shape of your dentures and avoid them from being damaged overnight, place them in a clean, cool water bath overnight.
Periodic check-up at the dentist:
Regular dental check-ups are important to assess the condition of your dentures and make repairs if necessary. The dentist will also provide you with more detailed advice on caring for your dentures.
Protect dentures from dust and debris:
When not in use, keep your dentures in a special case that protects them from dust and debris.
Wild mouth care:
Regular cleaning of your mouth is also important for the maintenance of dentures. Washing the mouth, brushing the natural teeth and taking care of the oral mucosa is important to prevent infections and complications.
Additionally, consult your dentist or prosthodontist for personalized advice on denture care and maintenance.
