INTRODUCTION
•Both biological supporting tissues and materials used in complete denture fabrication are vulnerable to time- dependent changes.
•When denture needs to be refitted, it usually indicates undermined retention, sore spots, and variable denture bearing tissue hyperemia.
•The relining and rebasing of complete dentures involves solving all of the problems encountered in the construction of new dentures, except positioning individual teeth.
DEFINITIONSRELINING –
- It is the process of adding some material to the tissue side of a denture to fill the space between the tissue and the denture base. (Winkler)
Or
the procedures used to resurface the intaglio of a removable dental prosthesis with new base material, thus producing an accurate adaptation to the denture foundation area (GPT-9)
REBASING –
- It is a process of replacing all the base material of a denture. (Winkler)
Or
- The laboratory process of replacing the entire denture base material on an existing prosthesis. (GPT-9)
TREATMENT RATIONALE
► The foundation that supports a denture changes adversely as a result of varying degrees and rates of residual ridge resorption.
► These changes may be insidious or rapid, but they are progressive and inevitable and are accompanied by:-
Loss of retention and stability.
Loss of vertical dimension of occlusion.
Loss of support for facial tissues.
Horizontal shift of dentures:- Incorrect occlusal relationships.
Reorientation of occlusal plane.
Reline Rebase
Minimal to moderate Moderate to maximal
changes changes
► The reasons for relining are:-
1) To Improve Retention & Stability:-
- Loss of fit will make the maintenance of peripheral seal impossible and will greatly impair the retentive effects of adhesion & cohesion.
2) To Restore the Vertical Dimension:-
- If the vertical dimension to which a denture was made is reduced, masticatory efficiency is impaired, but the previous efficiency can usually be restored by relining.
3) To Improve the Appearance:-
4) To Restore the Evenness of Occlusal Pressure:-
- When there is any alteration in the fit of the dentures, there will be some alteration of the pressure transmitted to the tissues when the teeth are brought into occlusion.
5) To Relieve Pain:-
- If a denture has been worn with comfort and then becomes painful, it is usually due to the alteration in the supporting tissues allowing the dentures to tilt, rock or move, and transmit undue pressure on one area.
INDICATIONS► Immediate dentures at 3-6 months after their original construction.
► When the residual alveolar ridges have resorbed and the adaptation of the denture bases to the ridges is poor.
► Persistent denture sore mouth.
► Congenital or acquired oral defect: (Acquired defect due to surgery for malignancy, trauma, congenital defects like cleft palate)
► The need for promotion of mucosal healing.
► Irregular foundation: Sharp knife edge residual ridge, maxillary or mandibular tori, prominent mylohyoid ridge.
► Single denture opposing natural teeth.
► Radiation therapy for tumors of face and neck.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
PRETREATMENT PROCEDURES► TISSUE PREPARATION:-
DENTURE PREPARATION:-
► PRINCIPAL PITFALLS:- 1) Do not increase the occlusal vertical dimension.
2) Multiple even contacts should be present in centric relation.
3) Do not permit the maxillary denture to move forward during impression making.
4) Ensure that CR and CO are identical.
5) Ensure that an accurate PPS has been established.
6) An equal thickness of final impression material should be used.
Ideal requirements of successful materials

Closed–mouthtechnique
Open- mouthTechnique(Bouchers)
STATIC IMPRESSION TECHNIQUE
Static impression technique involves the use of either a closed
or open mouth reline/rebase procedure.
In closed mouth technique the dentures are used as an
impression trays and either the existing centric relation
occlusion (CRO) is used or the centric relation (CR) is
recorded before the impressions are made.
TECHNIQUE A
Centric relation: - a new centric relation record is made using wax
or modelling compound
Denture preparation: -
•large undercuts are relieved
•borders are reduced 1-2 mm except the posterior border of maxillary
denture
Shaffer FW, Filler WH: Relining complete denture with minimum occlusal error. J Prosthet Dent 1971;25:366-370
Closed Mouth Relining Techniques:- Maxillary Denture
Special suggestion:-
Shaffer FW, Filler WH: Relining complete denture with minimum occlusal error. J Prosthet Dent 1971;25:366-370
A part of the palate of the maxillary denture is removed to aid in the proper positioning of the denture when the final impression for the reline is made.
Border molding:- The borders of the dentures are reformed to their
functional contours by using low-fusing modelling compound.
Impression:- Zinc oxide-eugenol impression paste is suggested as
the impression material.
Shaffer FW, Filler WH: Relining complete denture with minimum occlusal error J Prosthet Dent 1971;25:366-370
Light jaw closure on the interocclusal record is maintained with the mandible in centric relation until the final impression material has set.
A fast-setting impression plaster fills the palatal opening in the denture.
Advantages:
1.The opening of the palatal portion will allow better seating of the
maxillary denture
2.The premade interocclusal record helps to position the dentures
Shaffer FW, Filler WH: Relining complete denture with minimum occlusal error J Prosthet Dent 1971;25:366-370
Disadvantages
1.The possibility of moving the maxillary denture
2.The wax interocclusal record is not an accurate and safe record
3.Relining of both dentures at the same time.
Shaffer FW, Filler WH: Relining complete denture with minimum occlusal error J Prosthet Dent 1971;25:366-370
TECHNIQUE B
• Centric relation Existing centric occlusion and intercuspation are
used as a means to seat the dentures.
• Denture preparation The same as for technique A.
Hansen NJ: Rebasing and relining complete dentures: A technique. Dent Clin North Am 1964;8:693-704
Special suggestion A large part of the palatal section is prepared to be
removed as follows:
•outline of the area should be indicated and deepened on the polished
surface up to half the thickness of the base.
•Holes are drilled at 5- to 6-mm intervals inside this groove.
Hansen NJ: Rebasing and relining complete dentures: A technique. Dent Clin North Am 1964;8:693-704
• This procedure is suggested for easy removal of the palatal portion
during packing and processing
Border molding Low-fusing modelling compound (green stick) is
suggested for border molding.
Impression: Impression wax is material of choice in this technique
Hansen NJ: Rebasing and relining complete dentures: A technique. Dent Clin North Am 1964;8:693-704
Disadvantages
(1) Wax impression material is difficult to work with and the possibility
of distortion exists.
(2) Errors of existing centric occlusion can produce an inaccurate
impression.
Hansen NJ: Rebasing and relining complete dentures: A technique. Dent Clin North Am 1964;8:693-704
TECHNIQUE C
Centric relation The same as in technique B.
Denture preparation The same as in techniques A and B.
Special suggestion The labial and palatal flanges of the denture are
perforated.
Christensen FT: Relining techniques for complete dentures. J Prosthet Dent 1971;26:373-381
Border molding The same as techniques A and B.
Impression No specific impression material recommended.
•Pt is cautioned to use light force and only tap the teeth together as
occlusal pressure may squeeze too much of impression material out
of dentures resulting in sore points.
Christensen FT: Relining techniques for complete dentures. J Prosthet Dent 1971;26:373-381
TECHNIQUE D
Centric relation The existing centric occlusion is used to seat the
maxillary denture.
Denture preparation The same as in the other techniques.
Jorden LG : Relining the complete denture. J Prosthet Dent 1972;28:637-641
Impression Plaster of Paris or zinc oxide eugenol is suggested for the first step of
impression making, and plaster of Paris for the second step (the palatal portions).

Centric Relation:- Existing centric occlusion used to seat dentures.
Advantages:-
1) The loss of vertical dimension can be compensated for during relining procedures.
Disadvantages:-
1) Time consuming.
2) The procedure for establishment of occlusal vertical dimension is questionable.

Tissue conditioner in dentures
Plastic stage (tissue conditioner) Denture base responds to functional/ parafunctional stresses; fit is improved
(Few hours to few days)
Elastic stage Stress is cushioned;tissue (tissue conditioner) recovery takes place
(1 to 2 weeks)
Firm stage Surface is similar to polymerized (reline impression) resin surface, except it is vulnerable to deterioration
3) Chairside Technique:-
Disadvantages:-
1) The materials often produce a chemical burn on the mucosa.
2) The result often was porous and developed a bad odour.
3) Colour stability was poor.
4) If the denture was not positioned correctly, the material could
not be removed easily to start again.

Denture repairDenture repair
► Complete dentures often fractures when in function or when dropped onto a hard surface.
►The most common denture fractures are those along the maxillary and mandibular midline.
►The repair of dentures is often handled as a laboratory procedure, but a knowledge of preparation as well as the technical phase is essential for successful repair.
CAUSES OF FRACTURE OF DENTURE1) FRACTURE OF THE DENTURE BASE► Improper mandibular occlusal plane► High frenum attachments► Occlusal morphology► Beyli M.S. (1981) concluded that midline fracture of a denture base
was a flexural fatigue failure resulting from cyclic deformation of the denture base during function. Buccally arranged upper posterior teeth to the crest of the ridge will transmit flexing component of forces to the midline of the denture during function and leads to midline fracture.
► Denture base thickness: The denture lined with resilient denture base liners are more susceptible for fracture due to excessive reduction of the denture base to allow the space for liner material will result in thinning of denture base and prone for fracture.
► Overdenture abutment too prominent.
METHODS FOR REPAIR
► Anterior Tooth Replacement:- Fractured tooth is
removed by grinding
with no. 8 round bur.
Care must be taken not
to perforate denture base
Labial gingival margin should
be left intact to preserve
esthetics.
Remove the resin from the lingual
aspect of the denture base .
Select a resin tooth
of same size and
shade and grind its
ridge lap for proper
positioning on the
denture.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Verify the tooth position and secure it in
position with sticky wax.
If the tooth position is
acceptable, pour a
plaster index or silicone
index onto the labial
surface of the tooth to
be replaced and on the
labial surfaces of adjoining
teeth on each side.
After plaster sets, the index and tooth
are separated and sticky wax removed.
Shallow indentations can be
placed in the ridge laps of the
tooth with a no. 6 bur to ensure
stronger repair.
Replace the index and
tooth on the denture,
and carefully paint the
autopolymerizing resin
to the lingual or palatal
prepared area,
allowing the resin to flow between
ridge lap and denture base.
Resin is added to build up slight
excess, which will be finished to
original contour after polymerizing.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Repaired denture is placed in a pressure pot of warm water, and
cured at 20 psi for 30min.
Remove the denture, and reduce the excess bulk with no. 8 bur and resin is smoothed with mounted rubber point and repair is polished with flour of pumice & handpiece mounted prophy cup.
Posterior Tooth Replacement:-
Mount the denture in an articulator
Remove the fractured resin tooth by grinding it with a no. 8 round
bur. Take care to preserve the facial
gingival margin of the denture base
and not to perforate the base.
Ridge lap area of
denture is hollow ground
and of the replacement
tooth is modified for the
correct placement of
tooth.
Close the articulator
and check the occlusion.
If correct, seal the
replacement tooth to
opposing tooth with
sitcky wax.
Paint the autopolymerising resin into the ridge lap area to seal the tooth to the denture base.
Place the denture in a pressure container of warm water, and cure it for 30min. at 20 psi. Adjust the occlusion and polish the repair.
Repairing Fractured Denture:- ( Non-separated Fracture)
Examine denture to determine the
extent of the fracture. Gently flexing
denture will aid this determination, but
take care to prevent breakage.
If fractured denture self-approximates,
block the undercuts with clay,
and pour the repair cast.
Full cast is not necessary if the
fracture is small.
If undercut is there in
the region of repair,
silicone mold material
can be placed in the
undercut, resulting in
flexible cast permitting
removal of denture,
Remove the denture from the cast, and
widen the fracture line from beginning
to end with no. 558 bur.
Widened cut is beveled outwards
to increase bonding area.
Dovetails can be placed on the
palatal surface to further strengthen
repair joint.
Paint the stone cast with tinfoil
substitute and allow it to dry.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Denture is replaced on the cast carefully.
Repair resin is painted in groove,
taking care not to create voids.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Excess resin is built up Denture is secured to the
for finishing cast with a rubber band, and
cured in a pressure container for 30 min.
Cured denture is removed, finished and polished
► Denture Fractured into Two or More Parts
Examine the denture to determine that all pieces are present.
Assemble the pieces and lute them with sticky wax.
Modeling clay can be used to hold pieces while luting denture with sticky wax and reinforcing with wood sticks before removing from clay.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Alginate can be used in
pronounced undercuts
in mandibular denture.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Remove the denture
from the cast. Bevel the
margins of each fragment
with bur and make grooves
and dovetail. Use wire
reinforcement to strengthen the desired region desired.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Replace the denture on the cast, and paint autopolymerizing resin in each groove and dovetail, and build up excess.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
Secure the denture to the cast with plaster or rubber bands, and cure in a pressure container of warm water for 30min. at 20 psi
Finish and polish dentures
SUMMARY
►Resurfacing and replacement of the denture base of a complete
denture is complicated procedure requiring astute clinical judgment
and skill if the therapy is to be successful.
►When the denture bases are under-extended, when there has been a
gross loss in the occlusal vertical dimension , and when centric relation
and centric occlusion do not coincide, then fabrication of new denture
would be treatment of choice.
►Relined or rebased dentures should be given the same care as new
dentures, and the patient should be recalled as often as necessary for
examination of the tissues and the jaw relations.
