The Importance of Proper Denture Cleaning

Keeping your implant supported dentures clean is crucial for maintaining good oral health. Proper denture cleaning helps prevent plaque buildup, gum irritation, bad breath, and oral infections. Regular cleaning also helps extend the lifespan of your dentures, ensuring they remain in optimal condition for years to come.

Effective Cleaning Techniques

At Lawrence Dentistry, we employ proven and effective cleaning techniques to ensure the best results for our patients. Our skilled dental professionals utilize specialized tools and high-quality cleaning agents to remove plaque, bacteria, and food debris from your implant supported dentures.

1. Brushing

Brushing your implant supported dentures at least twice a day is essential for effective cleaning. Use a soft-bristled denture brush and a non-abrasive denture cleaner or mild soap to clean all surfaces of your dentures thoroughly. Pay extra attention to areas where bacteria and plaque tend to accumulate, such as the gum line and hard-to-reach spots.

2. Soaking

Soaking your dentures in a denture cleaning solution or a mixture of water and vinegar can help eliminate bacteria and stubborn stains. Follow the recommended soaking time indicated by the denture cleaning solution manufacturer. Rinse your dentures thoroughly after soaking to remove any residual cleaning solution.

3. Regular Dental Check-ups

Regular dental check-ups at Lawrence Dentistry are vital for ensuring the cleanliness and proper fit of your implant supported dentures. During these visits, our dentists will thoroughly clean your dentures using professional-grade tools and techniques, eliminating any plaque or tartar buildup that may be missed during regular home cleaning.

Common Denture Cleaning Mistakes to Avoid

While proper cleaning techniques are essential, it is equally important to avoid common denture cleaning mistakes that can negatively impact your oral health. Here are some mistakes to avoid:

  • Neglecting Regular Cleaning: It is crucial to clean your implant supported dentures regularly to prevent plaque buildup and oral infections.
  • Using Harsh Cleaning Agents: Avoid using abrasive cleansers, hard-bristled brushes, or toothpaste that may scratch or damage your dentures.
  • Skipping Dental Check-ups: Regular visits to Lawrence Dentistry are essential for maintaining the cleanliness and proper fit of your dentures.
