<\/div>\n
Proper Denture Care<\/o:p><\/b><\/div>\n

<\/b><\/div>\n
Despite the fact that they are designed to withstand the pressure of biting and chewing, dentures<\/b>can still be susceptible to damage if not handled with care. The teeth portion of your dentures<\/b>, for example, should never be brushed with a regular toothbrush and toothpaste. These implements are too abrasive for the materials used to make dentures<\/b>, and can actually cause visible erosion to their surfaces over time. Instead, use a daily cleanser and special brush specifically designed for dentures<\/b>. Also remember that your dentures <\/b>should be rinsed with water following every meal to prevent the buildup of odor-causing bacteria. <\/o:p><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
When removing your dentures<\/b>for cleaning, do so over a soft, folded towel or a sink full of water. If you happen to drop them accidentally, they are far less likely to break or crack. Every night, store your dentures<\/b> in a container of water or specialized cleanser to keep them moist. If allowed to dry out, dentures <\/b>can warp and lose their shape, negatively affecting the way they fit within your mouth. As always, our doctors are here to help with answers to all of your questions about restorative dental solutions, including dentures<\/b>, crowns and bridges, dental implants, and more. <\/o:p><\/div>\n
