English term or phrase: to reduce a uniform level of hard acrylic
Estoy traduciendo un folleto sobre rebase de dentaduras:

"Xxx is an addition curing vinyl silicone polymer for soft relining the hard acrylic denture base to increase patient comfort and solve difficult prosthodontic problems. Together with zzzz, xxx is used for improved retention of overdentures.

Depending on the conditions and professional preference, xxx can be used as a chairside procedure or used indirectly in the dental laboratory. In both techniques, the most important factors are the preparation of the denture base: **to reduce a uniform level of hard acrylic**, and to obtain a balanced denture-tissue interface. "

Hay una base de dentadura hecha de resina acrílica que es dura. A ésta, se aplica un caucho de silicona para crear un rebase más cómodo o confortable para el paciente. No entiendo la expresión entre asteriscos.

Mil gracias por su ayuda
