Here are some simple tips that can help you keep your dentures in optimal shape for years to come.\r\n\r\n<b>Easy-to-Follow Denture Care Tips<\/b>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><b>Always handle with care. <\/b>Your dentures are crafted specifically for you using high-quality dental materials, but they can still be damaged. When you remove your dentures, do so over a folded towel or a sink full of water. This will help prevent breakage if they should be accidentally dropped.<\/li>\r\n\t<li><b>Clean daily and after meals.<\/b> Rinsing your dentures after eating will help prevent the buildup of plaque and odor-causing bacteria. Every night, remove your dentures and brush them with a special brush and cleansing agent designed for cleaning dentures; regular toothbrushes and toothpastes can be too abrasive and actually cause unnecessary damage.<\/li>\r\n\t<li><b>Store dentures properly.<\/b> The way you store your dentures when you are not wearing them is extremely important. Dentures must be kept moist so that they maintain their shape, so keep them in a container of specialized soaking solution or water. Never place your dentures in hot water, as they may warp and will no longer fit properly.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<b>Your Trusted Partners in Lifelong Oral Health<\/b>\r\n\r\nAt <b>D\u2019Amico &amp; Mauck, DDS<\/b>, we believe that every patient deserves to experience the full benefits of a healthy, happy, and beautiful smile. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betteryoursmile.com\/contact-us.html\">Contact our office<\/a> in <b>Aurora, CO<\/b> today to schedule your appointment with our experienced doctors and caring staff.
