Dentures and partials will eventually need replacing. On average, they can last up to a decade and sometimes slightly longer. See your Topeka dentist periodically to keep your dentures in good shape and keep your gums and prosthetics clean.
Best Practices for Dentures and Partials
You should remove your dentures and partials at night and soak them in a denture bath. You can add a cleaning tablet to this bath to help disinfect them. You should also rinse your dentures thoroughly after eating and use a denture toothbrush and paste to keep them looking their best. Use only denture paste, never toothpaste!
Signs You Need New Dentures in Topeka, KS
If you apply adhesives continuously throughout the day or visit us often for relines and adjustments, it’s likely time to consider new dentures. Dentures loosen or lose their grip due to bone loss in the jaw, a natural occurrence when teeth are missing.
If you have a cracked or damaged denture, it’s always best to talk to your Topeka dentist about a replacement prosthetic.
