- Do leave your dentures in for the first 24hr hours
- Do brush twice a day – Oral hygiene is just as important whether you wear dentures or have natural teeth
- Don’t persevere with sore spots or ulcers. If you are experiencing pain and / or notice sore spots and ulcers appearing, call your Denture Specialist and arrange to come in for an adjustment
- Don’t try to adjust your Dentures yourself – leave it to the professionals as you could end up causing more damage.
- Don’t leave your dentures in at night while you sleep.
Why? Because it is actually possible to swallow some of the small partials and lower dentures (we wouldn’t like that), not to mention that the underlying soft oral tissues also need a ‘rest’
- Do Smile! Well fitting dentures give you the confidence to lead your daily life as normal, retaining your jawline shape and giving you the confidence you deserve.
