should be cleaned daily to remove food and plaque bacteria and people should limit the time spent wearing grills. It is also important to find out what metals the grills are made from to reduce the potential for an allergic reaction if base metals are used.

However, the Dental Council considers that fitting grills requires the same level of care as fitting a partial denture and expects technicians to first sight an oral health certificate before proceeding to fit grills.
