To effectively maintain partial dentures, remove them after meals and rinse them thoroughly to remove any food particles and debris. It’s important to brush your dentures daily with a soft-bristled brush and a non-abrasive cleanser to prevent plaque buildup and staining. When not in use, place them in water or denture cleaning solution to prevent them from becoming discolored; hot or boiling water should be avoided, as this can distort the denture. It’s important to have your dentures checked regularly by your dentist. It’s important to remember that ill-fitting dentures can lead to mouth sores and may require adjustments. Regular brushing of your remaining natural teeth and gum therapy are also essential to maintain the health of the teeth supporting the dentures.
