Denture Care
Brush and rinse your dentures daily. Like natural teeth, dentures must be brushed
daily to remove food and plaque. Brushing also helps prevent the development of permanent stains on the dentures. Use a brush with soft bristles that is specifically designed for cleaning dentures. Avoid using a hard-bristled brush as it can damage or wear down dentures. Gently brush all surfaces of the denture and be careful not to damage the plastic or bend attachments. In between brushings, rinse your dentures after every meal.
Clean with a denture cleaner. Hand soap or mild dishwashing liquid can be used for
cleaning dentures. Household cleansers and many toothpastes may be too abrasive for
your dentures and should not be used. Also, avoid using bleach, as this may whiten the pink portion of the denture. Ultrasonic cleaners can be used to care for dentures. These cleaners are small bathtub-like devices that contain a cleaning solution. The denture is immersed in the tub and then sound waves create a wave motion that dislodges the undesirable deposits. Use of an ultrasonic cleaner, however, does not replace a thorough daily brushing.

Not only can dentures restore your smile, but also they can make it easier to eat. Dentures are used to replace a person’s natural teeth when their teeth must be removed, are decayed, or if they fall out as the result of an accident or disease. Some people need to have a full set of false teeth to replace all or most of their natural teeth. Other people can achieve results with a partial set.
There are two types of dentures available, conventional and immediate. Those who receive immediate teeth can have them inserted soon after you have your teeth surgically removed. This product is acceptable for people who do not want to be without their teeth for a period of time. You may need to have other follow-up visits with your dentist to have the new teeth adjusted and refitted. Your dentist will closely monitor the teeth, and you should tell him or her if you experience any pain or discomfort. In both cases, you should also let the dentist know if you find that your dentures are ill fitting.
You must remove your false teeth periodically so that they can be cleaned. You can brush them as you brush your natural teeth, but they should also sit in water to keep them moist. Most people take their false teeth out at night and place them in water, so they can soak as they sleep. Brushing them cleans stains and soaking them overnight in a cleanser can also help remove stubborn stains. The false teeth can last a long time when they are cared for, but they can crack or chip if they fall onto a hard surface.
