For patients who have part of their teeth in the mouth but are not suitable for porcelain bridge and implant treatment, they are dentures that are made by taking support from the existing teeth, do not contain metal, are very light in gum color and have high biocompatibility.
Cleaning of Removable Dentures
Daily cleaning and maintenance of your dentures is important to prevent plaque, food residue and tartar formation. Regular maintenance is essential to maintain the health of the tissue under the prosthesis and to prevent infections.
Remove food residues by washing your prosthesis in water after meals.
Use water, various toothpastes or denture care products before going to bed to clean your prosthesis. You should brush it. Abrasive powders should not be used in brushing as they will damage the denture surface. Special denture brushes or normal toothbrushes can be used in the brushing process.
In addition to daily brushing, chemical weekly denture care should also be carried out using special effervescent denture cleaning tablets.
Despite all this care, the denture will not be cleaned for a long time. Stains and tartar can only be cleaned by your dentist with ultrasonic tools and the polish of your denture will be renewed.
To ensure that you can use your dentures in their original condition for a long time, do not forget to visit your doctor regularly every six months.
