False Teeth (Dentures)
Understanding Dentures
Dentures are custom-made prosthetic teeth and gums designed by your dentist to replace missing natural teeth. They can be full or partial, replacing all teeth on the upper or lower jaw or filling gaps caused by the loss of several teeth. Regardless of the type required, dentures are crafted to fit your mouth comfortably and blend aesthetically with your remaining teeth.
It is important to look after your dentures to keep your mouth healthy.
Clean your dentures in the morning and before going to bed at night. Itโs really important to take your dentures out before going to sleep at night. Leaving your dentures out overnight gives your mouth a chance to rest and recover. It also helps to prevent fungal infections.
Tips for cleaning your dentures:
- Take the denture out of your mouth.
- Brush all surfaces of the denture to remove food and plaque build-up. Use a denture brush with mild soap and water, or denture paste. Toothpaste is not recommended because it can scratch the dentures.
- Hold the denture gently but firmly. Do not hold the lower dentures at the ends as the pressure might cause them to snap.
- Clean dentures over a hand basin half-filled with water or covered with a towel. This means they wonโt break if you drop them.
- Rinse well with water.
You also need to clean any remaining natural teeth while your dentures are out. Use a toothbrush with a small head and soft bristles, and fluoride toothpaste. Donโt forget to gently brush any parts of your mouth that are normally covered by the dentures. This includes your gums and the roof of your mouth.
Keep cleaned dentures in a clean dry container overnight. Rinse them under fresh cold water before putting them in again. You may also like to rinse them in cold water after meals.
