Relines
Dentures can become loose for a number of reasons including:
- Trauma
- Bone loss due to tooth extraction
- Bone loss due to medical conditions such as osteoporosis
- Weight loss and weight gain
A reline fills in any gaps between the denture and the gums formed when the gum and bone shrinks and changes shape after a tooth is extracted.
Come and see Bessie to discuss whether a reline is right for you.

Over time dentures can be difficult to clean, plaque can build up and staining can occur.
Come and see Bessie to discuss whether a same day deep clean and polish of your denture may be right for you.
