Proper Denture Care: The Basics<\/strong><\/p>\n

Taking proper care of your dentures <\/strong>doesn\u2019t have to be a challenge. With these simple tips from Dr. Romack and Dr. Mulkey<\/strong>, you can keep your custom dental prosthetics fitting well, looking great, and feeling comfortable.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Always rinse your dentures<\/strong> after eating. This helps prevent buildup of odor-causing food particles and bacteria, and keeps your gums healthy, too.<\/li>\n
  2. Thoroughly clean your dentures <\/strong>every night. It is important that you avoid abrasive solutions, including whitening toothpastes, as these can damage the material used to make your dentures<\/strong>. Instead, use only a cleanser and brush that are specifically designed for dentures<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  3. Before removing dentures<\/strong>, prepare the area properly as a precaution. Fill the sink with water or remove your dentures<\/strong> over a soft, folded towel to cushion the counter in case of an accidental drop.<\/li>\n
  4. Never use hot water to clean or store dentures<\/strong>. While warm water is perfectly fine, water that is hot can lead to warping and bending, altering the way your prosthetic restoration fits against your palate and\/or gums.<\/li>\n
  5. Soak your dentures <\/strong>in water when they are not being worn. The majority of dentures<\/strong> require moisture in order to retain their shape. You may also use a solution especially formulated for soaking dentures.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you or someone in your family is suffering from an ill-fitting denture <\/strong>or any type of oral health condition that affects the fit of the dentures<\/strong> themselves, it is important that you call our office to discuss possible reasons for these problems, as well as solutions that fit your lifestyle.<\/p>\n
