How do you keep edentures(false teeth) clean?
969704
With dentures removed, rinse oral tissues at least once daily. At this time, all surfaces of the denture should be thoroughly cleaned. A special denture brush is recommend for this purpose, harsh abrasives and toothpaste should be avoided. During cleaning, the denture is carefully held over a sink half filled with cool water. The denture must not be soaked in either hot water or a strong solution such as undiluted bleach b/c these will damage the denture. As a precaution to minimize damage if the denture is dropped, place a wash cloth at the bottom of the sink. When dentures are not in the mouth, they must be stored in a moist, airtight container to prevent drying and warpage.

one of the best things yet is air abrasion for removing decay.....lots of time a small area of decay can just be "sandblasted" off and you wont even need to be numb...no pain...faster visit.\nalso, digital xrays---they can even be faxxed!\nalso again---composite fillings...the white natural tooth-looking kind! so great to have true "pearly whites" without the darkness of amalgam(silver)

Ten Top Ways to Whiten Your Teeth\n\nAnd they are all simple!\n\nBefore you try something more drastic, give these simple little tips a try. You might find that your teeth are white than you ever imagined. \n1. Avoid coffee and red wine as much as possible. Both will quickly stain your teeth.\n\n2. Raw veggies will clean your teeth so you not only have a healthy snack, you are cleaning your teeth at the same time. \n\n3. Keep an eye on your toothbrush. It can't do its job if it is worn out. It might sound obvious, but you have no idea how many people hold on to the same old brush. If you think about it, it is almost impossible to brush away film that hides your white teeth, with a brush that has worn out bristles.\n\n4. Strawberries have a natural bleaching effect and are loaded with Vitamin C, so you simply can't lose. Rub the pulp over your teeth and then rinse.\n\n5. Brushing your teeth every 12 hours is considered a rule of thumb. This will prevent plaque from forming and stains setting. \n\n6. Lemon peel massaged over the teeth is often used for whitening. Rinse thoroughly. \n\n7. Avoid smoking. This is one of the quickest ways of turning white teeth yellow.\n\n8. Floss at least once a day. Stains can easily form between teeth. \n\n9. Use whitening toothpastes that have the American Dental Association seal of approval.\n\n10. Have your teeth professionally cleaned once a year. Your teeth will feel so much cleaner. Makes you wonder about the rest of the time.

Once detected, continued care of the mouth at home can help prevent extensive periodontal disease and reduce gum problems.\nOral hygene to prevent gum disease is the same as treatment to prevent tooth decay. Ideally, the mouth needs to be cleaned after every meal. More realistically, a thorough cleansing before going to bed may minimize the chances of gum disease. Dentists suggest brushing teeth with a soft bristled brush. Gentle movements within the crevices disloge decay-causing material, while firm strokes over the teeth remove plaque.\nFlossing is recommended to clear plaque from between teeth.\nAfter brushing and flossing, vigorously rinsing the mouth with mouthwash (listerine) it contains containing antimicrobials (substances that kill bacteria) can also help eliminate bacteria formation;  but mouthwash alone cannot prevent plaque.\nFor self-checking, a dental mirror provides a view of the teeth and gums in the back of the mouth. Disclosing wafers, which when chewed discolor plaque, reveal any invisible film to be removed.\nFor advanced cases, a dentist may scrap the affected tissue pockets and apply antiseptics (germ-killers) every few months in an effort to kill the bacteria.\nShould this procedure fail to check the spread of the disease, surgery by a periodontist (gum specialist) may be needed to remove deep pockets in the gum.\nOnce the bacteria are eliminated, good oral hygene practices should control the disease.

To clean up these...get 2 dry clothes and a regular toothpaste. Put some toothpaste on a cloth, rub it on these jewelry and use other cloth to wipe. I saw it on tv then I tried it on my jewelry and it worked well. I hope this helps.

The quickest and only cure that I know of is a good professional cleaning and then ask your hygienist about avoiding the problem in the future.  Regular flossing and brushing with a soft toothbrush is a preventive measure but first you need to clear it up.  Call your dentist for an appointment.

ew...first, maintain proper oral hygiene...use some mouthwash to keep germs etc away from the site.  Also, they make non prescription pain medication for them..i think Ambisol (sp) is one of them, give it a shot.

Your dentist is the way forward, and try using a whitening toothpaste (there are loads on the market). Be very careful of 'natural' tooth whitening tips on the internet - such as using strawberries or other fruit instead of toothpaste - there are a few of these recipes around which claim to whiten teeth but in actual fact the natural sugars in the fruit will take the enamel off your teeth and cause them to rot!\nAlso try and cut out nicotine and caffeine and things like red wine that will consistently stain your teeth. \nThere are treatments you can have done at the dentists if you have money to spare but they are often very expensive.
