Acrylic dentures can be heated and reshaped to some extent; however, this process should be done carefully to avoid damaging the material. Heating acrylic can soften it, allowing for minor adjustments, but excessive heat can lead to warping or loss of structural integrity. It's best to have any necessary adjustments performed by a dental professional to ensure proper fit and function.
