First, it is important to remember that harsh toothpastes \u2013 such as those used for whitening teeth \u2013 are too abrasive for use on <strong>dentures<\/strong> and may lead to costly damage. Instead, brush and rinse your <strong>dentures<\/strong> daily with water and a special formula made for cleaning <strong>dental prosthetics<\/strong>. Avoid brushes with stiff bristles, as these can also damage the materials used to fabricate the <strong>dentures<\/strong>. In between brushings, remember to rinse your <strong>dentures<\/strong> with water after each time you eat.<\/p>\n<p>When <strong>dentures <\/strong>are not being worn, they should be kept moist in either water or a specialized solution. Water should not be hot, as this can cause the material to warp.
