How often should denture care be completed?

Denture care should be completed at least daily to maintain good oral hygiene and prevent infections, gum disease, and odor buildup. This daily routine is essential because bacteria can accumulate on dentures just like they do on natural teeth. Regular cleaning helps ensure that any food particles and plaque are removed, keeping the mouth healthy and reducing the risk of dental health issues.

Daily care also allows for the inspection of the dentures for any damage or fit issues, which is important for the overall comfort of the wearer. By prioritizing this practice, caregivers and patients can support better health outcomes and promote comfort and confidence for those who wear dentures.
