Adjusting the Fit of Dentures
Smiles on Hudson provides denture relining services at its clinic in Hamilton, supporting patients across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and Port Stephens. Relining is the process of resurfacing the underside of an existing denture so it fits more closely against the gums. Over time, changes in the mouth can affect how dentures sit, making relining an important part of ongoing care. Both hard and soft relining options are available, depending on suitability and comfort.
- Hard relines for longer-term adjustments
- Soft relines for flexible, short-term use
All relining work is completed in the onsite laboratory, allowing adjustments to be made without needing to replace the entire denture. This process helps extend the life of dentures and can usually be completed in a shorter timeframe than making a new set. To book a denture relining appointment, please call 0432 194 603.
Options for Hard & Soft Relines
Hard relining uses the same durable material as the denture base, creating a more permanent adjustment to the fit. This option is often chosen when the gums and mouth are stable. Soft relining uses a pliable silicone material that cushions the denture, providing flexibility for those with sensitive oral tissues. Soft relines generally require replacement more often, as the material does not last as long as hard acrylic.
Smiles on Hudson offers both types of relining to suit different requirements. Patients can discuss which option is most appropriate during their consultation. For more information about relining or to arrange an appointment, please get in touch today.

FAQ
Do you offer same-day relining?
If your current dentures are causing you discomfort, getting in touch with Maurie is the ideal place to start. We can book you in as soon as possible for same-day relining service, allowing you to leave our clinic with a better fit and higher level of comfort.
Am I a suitable candidate for hard relining?
Hard relining is a permanent solution to the shaping of the denture base. This harder substance is typically the same hard-wearing material as the denture base. If your mouth is healthy or you’ve had no problems with hard denture lining in the past, this option may be suitable for you.
When is soft relining the better choice?
Soft relines are created from flexible, soft silicone that needs to be reapplied each year. If you’ve struggled with hard relines or your dentist has determined that your mouth is sensitive to harder materials, this soft silicone may be a better fit. Speaking to our specialists will give you a better idea of the right choice.
How long does relining take?
During a relining appointment, we remove the existing material from your dentures and use a soft impression material to place your dentures comfortably in your mouth. Once this is complete, we use the impression to make a soft or hard reline to your particular requirements. We can offer emergency repair options to suit your needs if you require urgent service.
How often should I reline my dentures?
If you have a soft lining, relining should be done yearly to ensure the material doesn’t break down. If you have a hard lining on your dentures, it’s a good idea to speak to us if you feel any discomfort or looseness. These indications can suggest your dentures need relining for a comfortable fit.
