Denture Soft Reline
Denture soft reline materials are made of silicone and they have a very soft and rubbery texture. They serve as a cushion to the gum tissue, and often provide a tighter fit for a period of time while you are healing and waiting to be ready to have a reline done. Here are some suggestions to keep the reline material soft and extend the time that it lasts.
- Gently brush several times per day under running water with a toothbrush and neutral soap. If using a cleaning bath, allow denture to remain in the bath for a maximum of 10 minutes.
- The surface of the silicone is very smooth. If you brush your reline, be sure to use only a soft brush and brush gently. Hard brushes and vigorous brushing is not necessary and may damage the silicone’s smooth surface. This could create pits where bacteria can grow.
- Do not use highly alkaline soaps or ethylene solutions to clean or soak the denture. This could cause pits in the silicone where bacteria can grow.
- Lastly, the only care that your denture will need is lightly soft brushing or rinsing in water and/or neutral pH soap.
