Denture Stains and Odours: How to Keep Your Dentures Smelling Fresh

Why Standard Toothpaste Causes Denture Odours
Abrasive toothpaste scratches the polished surface of acrylic. These micro-grooves act as breeding grounds for odour-causing anaerobic bacteria.
Effective Effervescent Denture Cleansers
Soaking dentures in alkaline peroxide or enzymatic denture tablet solutions breaks down organic biofilms without scratching the acrylic surface.
Professional Ultrasonic Lab Cleaning
Annual professional ultrasonic polishing by your Dental Prosthetist removes hard calculus (tartar) build-up and restores high-gloss shine.
