Denture Care
Advice and tips on caring for your dentures
- Only your dentist 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 toothbrush with round-ended bristles.
-
Use denture creams instead of toothpastes, which are too abrasive and will scratch your denture. Rinse with cold water.
-
Dentures may 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 dentist.
-
Be sure to visit your dentist 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.
