How to Care for Your Dentures: A Simple Daily Routine

Good daily care keeps your dentures comfortable, hygienic and long-lasting, and it protects your gums too. The routine is simple.

Every day

• Rinse your dentures after eating to clear food debris.
• Brush daily with a soft brush and a denture cleaner, not regular toothpaste, which can be too abrasive.
• Soak them overnight to keep them moist and clean.

Handle with care

Clean them over a folded towel or a sink filled with water, so they don’t break if you drop them. Keep up with regular check-ups so we can check the fit and your oral health.

When to see a denturist

Reach out if your dentures feel loose, cause sore spots, click when you talk, or if it’s simply been a while since your last check. Small adjustments early prevent bigger problems and keep you comfortable.
