Oral cleaning routines are similar whether you have or do not have dentures. You should not only brush but also disinfect your mouth. Removing your denture makes it easier to clean them effectively. After brushing, it is recommended that you disinfect your mouth with a disinfectant such as mouthwash.

This solution not only keeps your dentures moist but acts as a disinfectant as well. Take note that different cleaning solutions should be used depending on the material your denture is made from, so ask us which solution is best for you to be using.
