Denture Care
Our dentist can provide you with partial and complete dentures to help you maximize your smile. But for your dentures to serve you well, it is up to you to keep taking care of them. We invite you to call Mont Dental Aesthetics at
415-398-6344 for more information and to plan your visit. Our team can schedule you for an appointment with Dr. Alireza Khoshvaghti to learn about denture care in San Francisco, California.
Caring for your dentures properly is key to ensuring that they continue to fit and function properly. When you receive your dentures, our dentist will provide you with instructions on the best ways to care for your dentures.
Recommendations on the Best Ways to Care
for Your Appliance:
1. Do not try to make adjustments to your dentures on your own. Only dental professionals are qualified to diagnose problems and make adjustments, and you may cause damage to the denture or your mouth if you try to adjust it yourself.
5. Rinse your dentures in cold water. Do not use hot water or put your appliance in the dishwasher, as this may cause them to warp out of shape.
2. Follow all instructions provided by our dentist regarding wearing and cleaning your dentures.
6.
Inspect your appliance regularly for wear and other damage that can cause it to function poorly.
3. Brush your dentures daily. Be sure to brush all
surfaces.
7. When not wearing your dentures, cover them in water or with a denture cleaning solution so that they do not dry out.
4. When brushing your dentures, use a denture cream. Toothpaste is abrasive and can scratch your appliance.

Personalized Denture Options & Long-Term Care
While dentures are traditionally removable, our dentist may recommend anchoring them in place with implants. We will review all your options with you during your consultation to help you make an informed decision regarding your dentures.
It will take several appointments to complete your dentures and ensure that they fit properly. After you have received your dentures, our dentist will also provide you with instruction on caring for your appliance so that you can keep it in good condition. We will also check your dentures at each of your regular dental visits to ensure that they fit and function properly and determine if any maintenance is needed.
