Why Dentures Matter for Your Health
Beyond aesthetics, missing teeth can affect your entire body. Without proper restoration, tooth loss can lead to:
- Shifting of remaining teeth
- Jawbone deterioration
-
Difficulty chewing and
digesting food properly - Changes in facial structure
-
Increased risk of gum
disease and discomfort
By choosing dentures, you’re not just restoring your smile—you’re investing in your overall health and quality of life.
Maintaining Good Denture Health
Maintaining a thoughtful and gentle oral care routine is key to ensuring your dentures feel comfortable, function properly, and support your long-term health.
Care for Your Whole Mouth
Your dentures replace missing teeth, but your gums, tongue, and cheeks also need daily attention. Use a soft toothbrush or tongue scraper to gently remove bacteria from your tongue, and brush the inside of your cheeks and gums to keep your mouth fresh and healthy.
Soak & Rest Your Dentures
Giving your gums a break at night helps maintain their health and allows them to stay strong. Dr. Gross may recommend a specialized cleaning solution for overnight soaking, helping to keep your dentures fresh and free from buildup.
Handle with Care
Your dentures are designed for durability, but they still need gentle handling. Always hold them securely over a soft surface or a towel to prevent accidental drops.
Use the Right Tools
A soft-bristled toothbrush or denture brush is best for cleaning, as harsh scrubbing can damage your prosthetic. Regular, gentle brushing removes debris while preserving the integrity of your dentures.
Keep Them Hydrated
Dentures should always stay moist to maintain their shape and function. When not in use, store them in lukewarm water or a dentist-approved soaking solution—never let them dry out.
By incorporating these simple yet thoughtful oral care habits, you can keep your dentures comfortable, your mouth healthy, and your smile radiant. If you ever have questions or need guidance, our team at Holistic Dentists is always here to help!
