How Can I Prevent My Dentures From Getting Damaged?
Proper care and maintenance are essential to prolonging the life of your dentures. By following a few simple steps, you can prevent damage and ensure your dentures remain in great condition.
Handle Your Dentures with Care
One of the easiest ways to prevent damage to your dentures is to handle them gently. Always remove and insert your dentures over a soft surface, such as a folded towel or a sink filled with water, to avoid accidental drops. At Grant Foxwell Denture Clinic, we recommend using both hands when handling your dentures to reduce the risk of bending or breaking them.
When cleaning your dentures, use a soft-bristled brush and avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could cause scratches or weaken the structure. By maintaining a careful approach, you can help protect your dentures from unnecessary wear and tear.
Regular Check-ups and Professional Maintenance
Another key to preventing damage is scheduling regular check-ups with your dentist or denture clinic. Professional maintenance allows for early detection of any issues, such as loose fittings, cracks, or changes in your oral health that could affect your dentures.
At Grant Foxwell Denture Clinic, we offer comprehensive denture care services, including adjustments and repairs, to ensure your dentures remain comfortable and functional. Regular visits to our clinic ensure your dentures continue to perform at their best, reducing the risk of unexpected damage and helping you avoid costly repairs or replacements in the future.
