How do I care for my dentures?
To care for your dentures, brush them daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush and mild denture cleaner, avoiding regular toothpaste, which can be abrasive. Rinse them thoroughly after eating and store them in a denture-soaking solution or water when not in use. Proper cleaning prevents plaque buildup and keeps your dentures fresh and comfortable.

How long do dentures last?
With proper care, dentures typically last between 5 to 10 years, though this can vary. Regular dental checkups are crucial to monitor their fit and condition, as your gums and bone structure may change over time. Adjustments, relining, or replacement may be necessary to ensure continued comfort and function.

Can I sleep with my dentures in?
While you can sleep with your dentures in, it’s recommended to remove them at night to allow your gums to rest. This practice promotes better oral hygiene and reduces the risk of gum irritation and infections. Store your dentures in water or a denture-soaking solution overnight to keep them moist and maintain their shape.
