Keeping your dentures clean is just as important as looking after natural teeth. Over time, dentures can build up plaque, stains, and bacteria, which may cause bad breath, gum irritation, or even infections. Regular cleaning helps protect your oral health and keeps your smile feeling fresh.

At Launceston Denture & Mouthguard Centre, we recommend:

• Daily care – Brush your dentures gently with a soft-bristled brush and non-abrasive cleaner (mild soap or denture paste). Use toothpaste sparingly to avoid scratching

• Soaking – Use a commercial denture solution or a simple mix of water and white vinegar to remove stubborn stains and bacteria

• Mouth care – Clean your gums, tongue, and any natural teeth daily with a soft brush

For a deeper clean, we offer a professional denture cleaning and polishing service in Launceston. In just one hour, we can remove tartar build-up, refresh your dentures, and leave them looking and feeling like new.

We recommend a professional clean at least once a year, alongside regular dental check-ups for your overall oral health.
