Common Questions
Denture Care FAQs
How should I clean my dentures each day?
Remove and rinse them after meals, brush them with a denture brush and nonabrasive cleaner, and clean your gums, tongue, and any remaining teeth.
Should I sleep with my dentures in?
Most patients should remove dentures overnight so oral tissues can rest. Store them as directed to prevent drying or warping.
Why do my dentures feel loose?
Jaw and gum tissues can change over time, affecting fit. A professional adjustment, reline, or replacement may be needed rather than relying on excess adhesive.
How often should denture wearers visit the dentist?
Regular visits remain important to check fit, examine oral tissues, screen for disease, and care for any remaining natural teeth.
A little daily care goes a long way.
