Denture

Here’s a quick guide for post-denture care to ensure a healthy recovery:

1. Follow Dentist’s Instructions: Adhere to any specific guidelines provided by your dentist.

2. Clean Your Dentures: Rinse dentures after meals and clean them daily with a denture cleaner. Avoid using regular toothpaste as it can be abrasive.

3. Soak Dentures: Keep dentures moist when not in use by soaking them in water or a denture solution to prevent warping.

4. Practice Good Oral Hygiene: Brush your gums, tongue, and the roof of your mouth daily to remove plaque and stimulate blood flow.

5. Adjust Gradually: Wear your dentures for short periods initially and gradually increase the time as you get used to them.

6. Manage Discomfort: Expect some initial discomfort and minor soreness. If pain persists or worsens, contact your dentist.

7. Avoid Hot or Hard Foods: Stick to soft, easy-to-chew foods for the first few days to avoid irritation.

8. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help with saliva production and overall comfort.

9. Visit Your Dentist Regularly: Schedule follow-up appointments to ensure your dentures fit properly and make any necessary adjustments.

10. Handle with Care: Be gentle when handling your dentures to avoid breaking or damaging them.
