Daily Cleaning Routine

Patients will need to establish a daily cleaning routine to keep their dentures clean and free from bacteria. They should do this routine in the morning and at night, just as they would if they were brushing natural teeth. Patients should adhere to the following steps.

1. Rinse After Eating

Patients should rinse their dentures after every meal. They can use warm water to remove any food particles or debris that may have gotten stuck in the dentures. If a patient doesn’t rinse after eating, remaining food particles can lead to bad breath or bacterial infections in their mouth.

2. Brush Daily

Hopefully, patients have been brushing their natural teeth for years, so this step should be easy to incorporate into their daily routine. They should avoid regular toothbrushes and toothpaste because they can be too abrasive for dentures; instead, they should use a soft-bristled brush and a dental cleaner to brush their teeth. They should brush at least twice a day for two minutes each time to remove all bacteria and plaque buildup.

3. Do Not Soak Overnight

Patients should remove their dentures before going to bed and place them in a container. Unlike traditional acrylic dentures, patients should not soak their 3D Printed Digital Dentures overnight.
