How to Care for Your Dentures

Dentures need daily cleaning just as natural teeth do, but with different products and a good deal more care when handling them. Most damage happens over a sink.

About This Service

Daily Cleaning

Plaque builds up on dentures the same way it does on teeth, so they need cleaning every day:

  • Rinse after eating to clear loose food
  • Brush daily with a soft denture brush
  • Use denture cleaner, not regular toothpaste
  • Clean your gums and tongue as well
  • Soak overnight unless told otherwise

About This Service

When to See Us

Your jaw keeps changing shape after tooth loss, so a denture that fit perfectly will eventually need adjusting:

  • The fit has loosened or it moves when you eat
  • Sore spots keep coming back
  • You have started needing more adhesive
  • A tooth or the base has cracked
  • An annual check even if all seems well

Do not attempt a home repair with glue. It rarely holds, and it can make a professional repair impossible.

Why Perler Dental

A Different Kind of Practice

Needing more adhesive over time is a fit problem, not a normal stage.

 

🏆

Specialist Oversight

Annual reviews check the gums and bone underneath as well as the denture itself, which is what catches a developing fit problem before it becomes uncomfortable.
