Denture Care
Denture Care Information
  • Food debris and plaque need to be cleaned from all denture surfaces daily.
  • Clean your dentures using a soft toothbrush and mild soap and water or denture paste. Standard toothpaste is not recommended.
  • Clean your dentures over a hand-basin half filled with water to prevent breakage if dropped.
  • Brush your gums, tongue and palate (roof of your mouth) morning and night with a soft toothbrush before you insert your dentures. This stimulates circulation in your tissues and helps remove plaque.
If you find that your denture has a build-up (tartar or calculus), soak it in white vinegar (1 part) and water (4 parts). If you still can’t remove the build-up, call our Dental Prosthetist and make an appointment to have your denture repolished. If your denture breaks or is damaged, stop wearing it straight away. Do not try to repair it, bend it or modify it. Call your dental clinic for an appointment to fix it.
