A soft liner is a layer of soft, pliable material that is fitted between the surface of a denture and your oral tissues. It absorbs shock between the hard base of your denture and your gums. Soft liners can be used when creating new dentures or retrofitted into existing dentures.

Permanent soft liners provide comfort and relief for individuals with receded and flattened gum tissues that don’t respond well to the stress of dentures. They may also be a suitable solution for patients with chronically sore gum tissues or gums with sharp bony areas.

Advantages

More comfortable to use
Virtually all patients respond well to soft liner materials
Easier chewing
A proven technology with over 20 years of innovation

Soft liners require regular follow-up visits with College Avenue Dental Associates to examine the fit of dentures and general oral health.
