Rinse after eating
- Remove your dentures and rinse them under running water to eliminate food particles.
Brush Thoroughly
- Use a soft-bristle toothbrush or a denture brush.
- Clean all surfaces, including the grooves that fit against your gums.
- Avoid using regular toothpaste, as it can be abrasive and damage the material.
- Do not use bleach or abrasive cleaning agents as they can weaken the material and affect appearance.
Soak Overnight
- Place your dentures in a mild denture-soaking solution to keep them moist and free of bacteria.
- Always follow the product’s instructions.
- Rinse thoroughly with water before wearing them again.
Clean Your Mouth
- Clean any remaining natural teeth.
- Even without natural teeth, you should clean your gums and your tongue.
- Use a soft toothbrush or gauze.
Maintenance Tips
- Keep dentures in water or a denture solution when not in use to prevent drying and warping.
- Never use hot water, as it can distort the shape.
- Avoid dropping your dentures as they can break.
- Hold them over a folded towel or a basin of water when cleaning.
