Caring for Dentures with Soft Liners
Soft liners require regular follow-up visits at our Chillicothe office. Dr. Schwalbach or Dr. Holland will:
- Check the condition of the liner
- Monitor the health of your gums and tissues
- Ensure the denture remains stable and functional
Like all denture services, maintenance is key to long-term success.
What Are Soft Denture Liners?
A soft liner is a cushioned layer applied to the inside of a denture. Unlike the hard acrylic base, soft liners conform more gently to your gums and absorb pressure from chewing.
Soft liners are especially helpful for patients with:
- Receded or flattened gum tissues
- Chronically sore gums
- Sharp or bony areas in the mouth
- Dentures that feel too rigid or uncomfortable
