How should I clean my dentures?
We recommend you brush your dentures, soak them and then brush them again. Always clean your dentures over a basin of water or a folded towel to prevent damage should you drop them. For best results, brush with a soft toothbrush and denture cleanser to help remove any stains.
Can I bleach my dentures?
Do not attempt to use bleach on your dentures as it can permanently damage them, making them brittle and liable to breakage. Not just that, it can ruin their appearance making them look less natural. Avoid using very hot water as well, as this can distort their shape and you may need to have them relined.
Can I sleep in my dentures?
When your dentures are new, we would recommend you wear them to sleep in. This helps your gums to adapt. After a week or two, we suggest removing them at bedtime to allow your gums to be cleansed by the saliva on your tongue.
Can I claim on my health insurance?
Yes. At Central Coast Denture Clinic, we accept all major private health funds. We use HICAPS so your claim can be made electronically.
