Denture Rebase & Repairs in Chillicothe, Ohio

What Is a Denture Rebase?

A denture rebase may be recommended when the teeth on your denture are still in good condition, but the pink acrylic base has weakened, cracked, or worn out. Instead of replacing the entire denture, we replace only the base material.

This process provides you with a stable denture while preserving the teeth you’re already used to.

Reasons for a Denture Rebase:

• Broken or damaged denture base
• Worn or weakened pink acrylic
• Replacement of an immediate denture
• Restoring stability without replacing denture teeth

Denture Rebase & Repairs FAQs

What’s the difference between a reline and a rebase?

• A reline reshapes the inside of the denture to match your gums.
• A rebase replaces the entire pink acrylic base but keeps the denture teeth.

Can you fix dentures the same day?

 In many cases, yes. Depending on the type of repair needed, we can restore your denture in-office or with quick lab support.

How long do dentures last before needing repair?

 Dentures typically last 5–7 years, but repairs may be needed sooner if they become damaged, loose, or worn.

Should I try to fix my denture at home?

 No. Store-bought glues and adhesives can damage the denture and irritate your mouth. Always have dentures repaired professionally.
