Top 3 Denture Mistakes

Dentures can be a great solution for those who have lost their natural teeth, providing improved function and aesthetics. However, common mistakes can hinder their effectiveness and comfort. At Roswell Complete Dentistry, we want to help you avoid these pitfalls for a better denture experience.

1. Neglecting Proper Cleaning

One of the most frequent mistakes is not cleaning dentures properly. Just like natural teeth, dentures require daily cleaning to prevent plaque buildup, staining, and bad breath. Use a soft-bristled brush and a non-abrasive denture cleaner to gently clean your dentures. Avoid using regular toothpaste, as it can be too abrasive and damage the surface.

2. Skipping Regular Dental Check-Ups

Many people believe that once they have dentures, they no longer need regular dental visits. This is a significant misconception. Regular check-ups are essential to ensure the fit of your dentures, examine your oral health, and make necessary adjustments. Ill-fitting dentures can cause discomfort, sores, and even infections. Schedule regular appointments with your dentist to maintain optimal denture function and oral health.

3. Improper Handling and Storage

Dentures are delicate and can easily break if not handled with care. Avoid dropping them by handling them over a sink filled with water or a soft towel. Additionally, never let your dentures dry out. When not in use, keep them moist by soaking them in a denture-cleaning solution or plain water. Dry dentures can lose their shape and become uncomfortable to wear.
