Over time, your mouth can undergo changes due to factors like gum resorption (shrinkage), weight loss, or natural aging. These changes can affect the fit of your implant-supported dentures, causing them to become loose or uncomfortable. When this happens, a reline may be necessary to restore the snug fit of your dentures.

Relining involves adding new material to the inner surface of your denture plate—the part that rests against your gums. This process helps to fill in any gaps that have developed, ensuring that your dentures once again fit securely and comfortably.

1. The Benefits of All-on-4 Relines

   Relining your All-on-4 dentures offers several important benefits:

   • Improved Comfort: A proper reline can eliminate the discomfort caused by loose-fitting dentures, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
   • Enhanced Stability: By restoring the close fit of your dentures to your gums, relining reduces movement and slipping, which can otherwise lead to irritation and difficulties with chewing.
   • Extended Denture Life: Regular relines can extend the life of your All-on-4 dentures by maintaining their fit and function over time, delaying the need for a full replacement.
   • Cost-Effective Solution: Relining is a more affordable option than replacing your entire denture, making it a cost-effective way to maintain your oral health and comfort.

   What to Expect During Your All-on-4 Reline

   When you come to Smile Again Sydney for an All-on-4 reline, the process typically involves the following steps:

   1. Consultation and Assessment: During your initial consultation, our experienced dentists will assess the fit of your current dentures and discuss any issues you’ve been experiencing. We’ll also check for any signs of wear or damage to ensure that a reline is the appropriate solution.
   2. Customised Reline Process: Once we’ve determined that a reline is needed, we’ll carefully add new material to the inner plate of your dentures. This material is shaped and adjusted to ensure a precise fit against your gums, restoring comfort and stability.
   3. Final Fitting: After the relining process is complete, we’ll have you try on your dentures to ensure they fit snugly and comfortably. Any necessary adjustments will be made to achieve the perfect fit.
   4. Aftercare and Follow-Up: We’ll provide you with care instructions to maintain the fit and comfort of your relined dentures. Regular follow-up appointments may be recommended to monitor the condition of your dentures and make any further adjustments as needed.
