Rebase

Rebasing is the process of replacing the entire acrylic denture base, providing a stable denture without replacing the denture teeth. A rebase for a denture maybe required if your denture is old or is 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 circumstance can lead to a damaged denture and should be addressed immediately. Repairs restore a fractured or damaged denture close to its original condition. North Country Smiles can often provide denture repair procedures on a same day basis. North Country Smiles will advise you of the condition of your denture and will recommend steps needed in preventing further breakage.
