Tips for the New Denture Wearers


Periodontal disease, injury and tooth decay can all cause a loss of your natural permanent teeth. To restore your missing teeth or an injury of teeth Gentle Dental Dentures is the solution. Dentures are prosthetic devices constructed to replace missing teeth and are supported by the surrounding soft and hard tissues of the oral cavity. There are two types of Dentures 1. Complete dentures 2. Partial Dentures. 

For the New Denture Wearers there are some Tips and Tricks to take care of the dentures.:

1. Brush your dentures daily.

As Dentures are replaced for the missing tooth, We need to take care of the dentures properly as we take for our natural tooth. Dentures need to be brushed daily. Dentures can also get stained and develop bacteria. So first brush your teeth and denture also properly then rinse them with water to remove food particles. Dental experts say avoid bleaching agents otherwise it will damage the denture.

2. Soak dentures daily in a denture cleanser:

 After cleaning the denture with the brush, soak the denture into cleanser daily to remove plaque, bacteria. Denture cleanser will also help to kill the germs which develop bad breath. In a market different type of denture cleanser is available you can use that and can take care of denture.


3. Give Your Tissues Rest:

We always recommend sleeping without your dentures. This will give you plenty of time to soak them, and it will also give your gums a break and allow them to heal from any soreness or irritation.

4. Adjust Your Diet :

Once you fixed the new dentures, there is certain food that you need to avoid.  it is important to maintain proper nutrition as well, so be sure you are eating well-balanced meals and healthy snacks. Avoid sweet foods, sweet drinks, corns, hard nuts etc, to keep your denture clean and protected.
