Abstract
In order to provide a relining for prosthesis and a process for the manufacturing thereof with improving the performance of the relining and the application-technical characteristics of the individual components as compared with the state of the art, it is proposed to prepare the relining from a one-component relining adhesive, a two-component relining silicone and optionally a two-component sealing lacquer.
