Soft Liners

Soft liners are a comfortable option for denture wearers with sensitive gums. Applied to the base of your dentures, soft liners provide a cushioning effect that reduces gum irritation and enhances comfort. They are particularly beneficial for those with thin or sensitive gum tissues, making dentures more bearable to wear for extended periods.

Process of Getting Soft Liners

01. Consultation

Discuss with your denturist or dentist about the possibility and benefits of adding soft liners to your dentures. Your dental professional will assess the condition of your oral tissues and dentures to determine if soft liners are appropriate for you.

02. Preparation

The interior of your denture may be adjusted to create space for the soft liner.

03. Application

The soft liner material, a medical-grade silicone-type compound, is applied to your denture and shaped to fit comfortably against your gums.

04. Curing and Final Adjustments

Depending on the type of soft liner used, it may be cured on the spot or sent to a lab. Final adjustments ensure a proper fit.

05. Follow-Up Care

You’ll receive instructions on how to care for your dentures with soft liners and may need follow-up visits to check the fit and condition.
