Today, there are new dental product lines which are solely for denture cleansing. Ask your dentist about it. Stimulating your gums keep it healthy and can reduce the rate of bone resorption. Even without the teeth, brushing your gums with a soft brisstle toothbrush is a healthy habit. Massaging your gums using your index finger and thumb stimulates the tissues and increase blood circulation on the area.
Most people encounter an uncomfortable adjustment period with dentures.
You may develop sores in some areas of the gums during this adjustment period. The lukewarm water with salt increases blood circulation and hastens sore healing. It can also help toughen gum tissue. A common complaint to denture disconfort is the uncomfortable adjustment to eating and talking. At first, it feels awkward to talk and the food tastes flat.
