Denture Rebase & Repairs
Rebase
Rebasing is the process of replacing the entire acrylic denture base providing a stable denture without replacing the denture teeth. Rebasing may be recommended when the teeth of your denture are still in good condition and have not worn out compared to the denture base material. A rebase for a denture may be required if your denture is old or cracked. A rebase is very similar to relining, the difference being that 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
Denture Repairs
A variety of circumstances can lead to a damaged denture and should be addressed immediately. Repairs restore a fractured or damaged denture close to its original condition. Paradise Valley Dental can often provide denture repair procedures on a same-day basis. Dr. Fialkoff will advise you of your denture's condition and recommend steps to prevent further breakage.
