Need your dentures relined? Carter Street Denture Clinic can help

Whether you’ve had them for a long time or are just embarking on your first set of dentures, it’s important to be aware of the option to have your dentures relined. This simple procedure is more affordable than buying a new set and can make your existing plates fit more comfortably. For expert denture relining in Uttoxeter, call on us.

Why Dentures Need Relining from Time to Time

Denture relining is exactly what the name suggests: a new lining is inserted into your dentures so that they fit comfortably in your mouth. While your new dentures may fit perfectly when you first receive them, over time your mouth will change shape as your gum tissue adapts to the loss of a tooth or teeth along your jawline.

It is recommended by dentistry professionals that dentures are fully relined every two years or so. The process involves stripping off the base material from the plate and completely replacing it. This helps preserve and prolong the life of your denture and ensures it continues to fit correctly without rubbing and creating sore spots, ulcers or more serious problems. In the interim, you can have your dental plates partially relined if needed – just call and make an appointment with us and we can usually do this while you wait.

The Benefits of Having Your Dentures Relined

Even a full relining of your dentures will only cost around half the price of having an entire new set made. Additionally, if you bring your dentures to our Carter Street Denture Clinic, the procedure can usually be done within 24 hours of us receiving them. It’s therefore far quicker than being fitted for replacement sets, which can take around a week or more.

Here at the clinic, we also carry out repair of dentures, or can measure and design a complete new set that are made to measure for your mouth. We offer free consultations, so why not book yours now?
