| 1. |  | |
| Dentures can break, so always fill the sink with water, then clean your dentures over the sink, just in case they slip out of your hands by accident.
| |
| 2. |  | |
| Rinse your dentures thoroughly to remove loose food particles. Use cool or warm water. But never use hot water – it can warp your dentures.
| |
| 3. |  | |
| Apply a denture cleaning paste to a moistened denture brush or a soft-bristled toothbrush. Do not use ordinary toothpaste, bleach, vinegar or soap unless directed to do so by your dental professional.
| |
4.
|  | |
| Brush all surfaces thoroughly. Avoid using brushes with stiff bristles, as they can damage the denture material.
| |
| 5. |  | |
| Rinse dentures well under the faucet to remove all traces of cleaning paste.
| |
| 6. |  | |
| While you sleep at night, soak your dentures in a cleanser (such as Fixodent®) or one recommended by your dental professional.
| |
| 7. | Brush your gums, tongue and palate with a soft-bristled regular toothbrush to remove plaque and stimulate circulation. Then reinsert your dentures.
| |
| 8. | To give your mouth an extra, fresh clean feeling, rinse with a mouthwash several times a day. |
