[QUOTE="Cleo, post: 356112, member: 9104"] If it is 100% a fit/impression issue a reline impression should fix it. Bigj1972 is right and it could be many one of many variables. In general I do the following when I seat a denture. Hold it in place make sure it is not rocking and it seats fully. Adjust any sore spots they might feel. Check the bite and make sure when they hit in centric that there is not an interference that causes a shift or loosening of the denture, even if it is minor. If it is still loose I check the extensions. Last of all I will try a lite body wash in the denture. If that wash improves it I send it for reline or rebase. When I get called to check loose dentures it is usually a bite issue. We try to catch the poor impressions early in the process. [/QUOTE]
