Denture wearers often experience discomfort from hard, rigid materials pressing against sensitive gum tissues. For those seeking a more comfortable solution, processed soft denture linings can provide significant relief. At Community Denture Centre in Oliver, we offer soft linings for dentures, ensuring a more comfortable and flexible fit for our South Okanagan clients.
What Are Processed Soft Denture Linings?
Soft denture linings are made from medical-grade, pliable materials designed to cushion the surface of the denture that touches your gums. Unlike traditional hard acrylic linings, processed soft liners are much more forgiving, providing a gentle barrier that adapts to your gums and mouth structure.
The Benefits of Soft Denture Linings
Enhanced Comfort: The most significant advantage of soft denture linings is the comfort they provide. For individuals with sensitive gums, sore spots, or thin gum tissue, a soft lining reduces irritation, making it easier to wear dentures for extended periods.
Better Fit: Processed soft liners are designed to mold to the shape of your gums, providing a snug fit and preventing the rubbing or shifting that can occur with harder materials.
Shock Absorption: Soft liners help absorb the impact of chewing, reducing pressure on the gums and making eating more comfortable, especially for those with tender or healing tissue.
Things to Consider
While processed soft denture linings offer increased comfort, they may require more regular maintenance compared to traditional hard linings. Soft liners can be more prone to wear and may need periodic replacement to maintain their effectiveness.
