Keeping Your Dentures Protected
If you own a set of dentures or are looking into dentures, you may like to know how you keep them protected. Much like natural teeth, they thrive when you take good care of them.
Spring Into the Season With Dentures
If you have any lost teeth, it is important to have them replaced with due haste. By failing to replace missing teeth, you run the risk of letting the voids between the teeth become havens for plaque buildup and debris and even cause gum destabilization and tooth slippage to occur. Furthermore, missing teeth can weaken your jawbone and cause your face to sink in and look aged. To help reverse these effects, consider the use of dentures.
As dentures are removable tooth replacement systems that can be applied, it is important to care for them properly. In order to provide your dentures, the proper care, you will need to be cleaning them on a daily basis. However, they are fragile, so they need to be handled with care when removed. Always soak them in a denture-cleaning solution and avoid abrasive products on them such as teeth whiteners and bleach. Furthermore, rinse them off before placing them back into your mouth. Always avoid letting your dentures sit out anywhere, as they can dry out and crack. If any damage has occurred to your dentures, bring them into our denturist for repairs.
With the skilled craftsmanship of Dr. MaeNell Sullivan and our team at our office in Tenino, Washington, we can make sure your smile thrives with dentures. To book an appointment for dentures at Tenino Denture Center, please call us.

A partial denture is sometimes used to by a denturist like Dr. MaeNell Sullivan to address tooth loss related to dental trauma, chronic gum disease, or multiple untreated cavities.
