Have Better Dentures with Quality Dental Reline

Function and comfort are the most important features of dentures. However, many denture wearers can attest that over time these can be affected due to many different factors. Among these are changes  in a person’s gum condition as they grow older and the condition and quality of the dentures as they are used. Rather than bearing the pain and discomfort, you can get a new set of dentures; but for a more cost effective option, you can get a dental reline. Dental practitioners advice regular dental  reline as part of proper denture care.

A dental reline is a way of adjusting the fit of dentures by replacing the inside portion touching  the gums with a new lining. The denture liner becomes the cushion between the hard denture material  and the sensitive gums. Denture liners are available in different types of elastic material. Each  has their pros and cons, but thanks to the continued product development of Lang Dental, there is a dental reline product that features all the benefits of comfort and convenience.

From Lang Dental, the Novus Denture Liner is made with a semi-organic polymer, polyphosphazene, which has proven its advantages over acrylics, silicone rubbers, and other materials. The qualities of polyphosphazene—its biocompatibility, energy absorption, acceptance of fillers and pigments, compatibility with an interpenetrating network of di- and tri-functional cross-linking acrylic monomers, and its ability to be compounded in different hardness levels-- make it an ideal material for soft denture liners. With this material, Lang Dental has come up with a dental liner that offers permanent resiliency, has low surface tension, low water absorption, and is resistant to fungal growth. This means it will not harden; it will absorb shock; and it won’t be prone to odor and discoloration. Aside from these, the Novus Denture Liner bonds well to acrylic denture bases; can be ground, adjusted, and polished with most rotary instruments; is radiopaque, for easy identification if swallowed; and features other useful characteristics. Choosing a product such as Novus can
definitely have a better impact for continued function and the comfort every patient seeks.

For denture wearers, a quality dental reline should always be a priority. It not only provides immediate relief but ensures your dental and overall health in the long run. If you want better dentures, ask for Novus Denture Liner from your denturist.
