Dr. Rangel will show you how to care for your new implant supported dentures following your procedure. Just like your natural teeth, you’ll need to provide proper dental hygiene to your implant supported dentures as well. Here’s how:
Remove your dentures every morning and night to rinse them.
Use a soft-bristle toothbrush and a cleanser to gently brush your dentures, making sure to clean around the attachments as well.
Be sure to clean your mouth properly, including your gums, tongue, cheeks, and the roof of your mouth.
Rinse your mouth after meals to prevent the buildup of debris.
Whenever you’re not wearing them, put them in a safe place and soak them in water so they don’t dry out or change shape.
Failure to properly clean your implants can lead to food particles getting trapped in them. This could lead to bad breath, gum disease, tooth decay, and even infection.
