    How Much Does Denture Relines Cost?

    By Danny | Dental Knowledge | Comments are Closed | 29 March, 2020 | 1

    If you are planning to get dentures or already have dentures, you probably have heard the term “denture relines.” It is one of the most necessary procedures in the process of caring for your dentures. Dentures or partial dentures provide a relatively affordable option to restore every patient missing tooth. However, over time, these dentures may not fit as well as when they were new. For this reason, your dentist may recommend getting a denture reline.

    Also, mouth tissues and the bony structure that supports your dentures can be affected by some factors and even your health status. If this case happens, your dentures need adjustments, or a relining, to restore their efficacy.

    Technically, a denture reline is exactly what it sounds like. It is putting a new lining in your dentures so they fit properly in your mouth as if it’s new. Considering to reline your dentures is simple and affordable. This can also make your everyday life so much more comfortable.

    What is Denture Relines?

    A dental relining is a restoration of your dentures. Maintaining the fitting surface between your denture and mouth tissue. It is an effective way to improve the fitting of your dentures and to extend the lifespan of your dentures. Basically, denture relines are normally part of your denture care so there is no way for you to avoid it. Relining improves the stability of your dentures and seals off space between your mouth and the denture from food particles. When it comes to the upper denture, relining may also improve suction.

     

    Why Do You Need to Get Denture Relines?

    The upper and lower jaws often change as you grow older so if you have dentures, an adjustment is needed. A well-fitted denture is subject to loose over time. This can bring uncomfortable feeling due to changes in bone levels after teeth are extracted. Shrinking gum may also affect your dentures fitting. When this happens, a dentist may recommend a denture relining to resolve the space between your denture and gum tissue.

     

    How Does Denture Relining Works?

    A prosthodontist performs the denture relining by placing a hard or soft material into the space on denture’s gums. This is done to recontour the fitting of your dentures. First thing is, the dentist will measure the bone and gum’s degree changes in the patient’s mouth through an impression. After assessing denture’s function and condition, they will determine if there is enough support for a reline procedure. Sometimes they do the most cost-effective, which is to remake the entire prosthesis.

     

    Types Of Denture Relines

    There are two main types of relines you can get depending on the severity of tissue change. Denture relining also depends on what type of dentures you have. The two main types of denture relines are: hard and soft relines.

    Hard Denture Reline

    If you have full dentures, the most ideal denture reline for you is a hard one. You should get it every two years. It is the best way to make your dentures fit comfortably without getting a whole new fitting, again.

    When getting a hard reline, your dentist needs to remove some of the plastic from the inside of your dentures. Then, they will place putty wherever the denture makes contact with tissue. Your dentist will make an impression in the putty by placing the denture back into your mouth.

    Afterwards, they will take out the denture and let the putty harden with your mouth’s impression. Then the putty turns into a rubbery consistency. The lab will replace the putty by adding acrylic to the tissue side of the current denture. 

    Soft Denture Reline

    A soft reline is sometimes offer to those patients who can’t wear their dentures because their gums are too tender. Thus, leading to sore spots in their mouth. 

    If you need a soft reline, your dentist can reline your dentures with a pliable material. Anything from a waxy material to a more rubbery material. This material usually lasts for a year or two. This is also a good alternative to the standard acrylic material that most dentures are made of. A soft reline uses a more comfortable material and it needs more adjustments than a hard reline.

    Most dentists consider a soft reline the best type of relining you can get. It is ideal because of its long-lasting and more comfortable effect on the patient. 

     

    How Much Does it Cost to Get Dental Relines?

    The average cost of a denture reline is actually quite affordable. However, it still depends on some factors. Also, your insurance company may not cover this procedure, but it’s always best to check with them first. The average cost of denture relines falls anywhere from $300 to just under $500. The cost still depends on the type of denture, whether it’s a complete or partial denture. 

     

    Final Thoughts

    Denture and partial denture reline costs vary based on what material is used. Sometimes, what method the dentist uses, what type of dental relines and whether the reline involves a dental laboratory. In most cases, denture relines cost is more affordable than the complete fabrication cost of a new denture.
