Denture Care


Posted on 7/3/2024 by Ashley

•  Only your dental professional is qualified to diagnose your oral health and adjust your denture or partial.
•  Dentures should be brushed inside and outside daily with a soft, large nylon denture tooth brush with round-ended bristles.
•  Use denture creams instead of toothpastes, which are too abrasive and will scratch your denture. Rinse with cold water.
•  Dentures warp if placed in hot water.
•  Inspect your denture regularly for worn teeth.
•  Worn and stained dentures can make you look older and cause your dentures to function poorly.
•  Discuss all your current medications with your doctor and dental professional.
•  Be sure to visit your dental professional regularly.
•  Have loose dentures checked immediately as they can cause friction and pressure on the gum tissues and bones.
•  When not in use, cover dentures with water or a denture-cleaning solution to prevent them from drying out.
•  Most dental insurance policies provide coverage for new dentures every 5 years.
