Due to the change in the bone density or bone resorption, may result in ill-fitting dentures.

Reline or rebasing is a process whereby an impression is taken with the denture in-situ and sent to the lab whereby the fitting surface of the denture is trimmed and an additional layer of Acrylic is added to the denture. This may improve the stability and retention of the dentures but it also adds to the thickness of the acrylic making it bulkier.

However, Relining may not always be the option and it needs to be examined by the dentist or the clinician to ensure, if it is the right option for you.
