Denture Care

Over a period of time, your denture will need to be relined, remade, or rebased due to normal wear. Rebasing means making a new base while keeping the existing denture teeth. Also, as you age, your mouth naturally changes. These changes cause your dentures to loosen,making chewing difficult and irritating your gums. At a minimum, you should see your dentist annually for a checkup.

Here are tips for caring for your dentures:

When handling your dentures, stand over a folded towel or basin of water. Dentures are delicate and may break if dropped.

Brushing your dentures daily will remove food deposits and plaque, and help prevent them from becoming stained. An ultrasonic cleaner may be used to care for your dentures, but it does not replace a thorough daily brushing.

Brush your gums, tongue and palate every morning with a soft-bristled brush before you insert your dentures. This stimulates circulation in your tissues and helps remove plaque.​ See your dental prosthetist if your dentures break, chip, crack or become loose.Don't be tempted to adjust them yourself-this can damage them beyond repair. It will cost you more to fix the denture once you put some super glue or any other instant products.
