Make your denture feel secure again
If your denture has started slipping or pressing where it used to sit comfortably, a reline or rebase reshapes the fit around your gums — without touching the teeth you already wear. We look after it for Perth and the wider Lanark County area, with the work done in our clinic’s own lab. A snug, comfortable fit again — for Perth and Lanark County.

Which of these sounds like your denture?
Pick whichever is closest to how things feel today. If you are unsure whether a reline, a rebase, or a repair is what you need, Smiley can talk it through with you before you book a Perth visit.
A fresh fit, with the same denture you wear today
Gums and the ridge of bone beneath them gradually settle and reshape, so a denture that hugged closely a few years ago can begin to wobble or chafe. A reline renews only the inner surface that rests against your gums, while a rebase rebuilds the body of the denture — and in both cases your own denture teeth stay exactly as they are.
When the rest of the denture is in good shape, refitting it gives you back three things:
- A hold that stays put Re-shaping the inner surface lets the denture seat firmly so it stops shifting and slipping.
- Easier days at the table and in conversation Taking the pressure off tender areas settles sore spots, so wearing it feels comfortable again.
- Your familiar teeth, kept Only the base is reworked — the denture teeth you’re used to are carried straight across.
What a Perth reline visit looks like
Drop in with your denture and one of our licensed denturists will look at how it’s sitting, then talk you through the option that suits it.
-
01
Tell us how it feels
Describe what’s different — whether it’s slipping, lifting, or pressing on a sore patch — so we know where to focus.
-
02
A close look at the fit
Your denturist examines how the denture seats against your gums and explains whether a reline or a rebase is the better route.
-
03
The reline or rebase is made
Our skilled lab technicians handle the work in our clinic’s own lab, renewing the inner surface or rebuilding the base.
-
04
A final fitting
Before you head back out onto Beckwith Street, we settle the fit and ease any tender spots so it feels right.
Planned by your denturist, made by our lab
A licensed denturist reviews and fits your reline or rebase, and skilled technicians shape it in our clinic’s own lab — so the people who understand your denture are the ones working on it.
- One team, from assessment to craft The denturist who studies the fit maps out the reline or rebase; our lab technicians then build it.
- Relines, rebases and adjustments together Whether it’s a light refit or a full rebase, it’s seen to through your Perth clinic.
- Tuned until it feels natural We refine the seat and relieve pressure points so it stays comfortable to eat and talk in.
In our patients’ own words
A renewed fit and dentures that feel comfortable again — described by the people who came to see us.
“We called and were seen the same day. Caner carefully assessed the situation and provided immediate relief.”
“From day one to final install, Caner was excellent. A perfect fit, total comfort, and best of all, a great smile.”
“The service was amazing. Caner was helpful, considerate, and patient. The fit and look is very natural.”
The quotes above are taken from published Google reviews. Whatever brings you in, we start by listening to how the denture feels now — and what a comfortable day would mean for you.

Not at all — everything from the first consultation through to the fitting and any later adjustments is handled right here at 3 Beckwith Street East in Perth. Patients come to us from across Lanark County, including Smiths Falls, Lanark and Carleton Place.
-
When a denture that once sat well begins to wobble, lift, or rub up a tender spot, it usually means the fit has shifted — and a reline may be what brings it back. Bring it along and our licensed denturists will take a look.
-
A reline renews just the inner surface that rests on your gums to bring back a close fit. A rebase goes further, rebuilding the body of the denture while your existing teeth stay put. Your denturist will suggest whichever matches the state of your denture.
-
There’s no set timetable — everyone’s gums and jaw reshape at their own pace. Instead of watching the calendar, it’s better to come in whenever the denture starts feeling loose or uncomfortable so we can check how it’s sitting.
-
For eligible patients, a reline can be covered through the Canadian Dental Care Plan. We confirm what your plan allows before any treatment starts and let you know any estimated out-of-pocket portion up front.
