General Health Information

Controlling the plaque and bacteria in the mouth is the best way to
prevent the emergence of swollen gums and other symptoms of gum
disease. The right brushing and flossing techniques, as well as
follow-up rinsing of the mouth with an effective mouthwash,
is the ultimate prevention against swollen gums. Having dentures is not
an excuse for not maintaining proper oral hygiene. Although dentures
may feel uncomfortable at first, it is essential to keep dentures clean
and free from foods that can cause stain, bad breath and swollen gums.
Brush all surfaces with dental health care product at least twice a day
to ensure that bacteria and plaque does not accumulate. Also, remove
the dentures before going to bed and place them in the water or liquid
used to clean dentures.
