Denture Rebase & Repairs

Rebase

A denture specialist repairing denturesRebasing may be recommended when the the denture base material is much more worn than the teeth.

Rebasing involves replacing the entire acrylic denture base, providing a stable denture without replacing the denture teeth. You may require a denture rebase if your denture is old or cracked. A rebase is very similar to relining. However, a rebase replaces all the pink-acrylic denture base material instead of just the lining.

Reasons for the rebase procedure may include:

  • Broken or damaged denture
  • Weakened or old pink denture base
  • Replacement of an immediate denture
