How to Clean Dentures to Prevent Infection (Complete System)


Introduction

Most denture-related infections start from improper cleaning — either the denture isn’t cleaned thoroughly, or the mouth isn’t cleaned at all. This guide outlines the infection-prevention routine that dentists recommend for all denture wearers.

Step 1 — Clean Your Mouth Twice Daily

Use Cleanadent Paste to remove bacteria, yeast, and residue.

Brush:

  • Gums

  • Tongue

  • Cheeks

  • Roof of mouth

Step 2 — Brush Dentures Safely

Use Cleanadent Paste instead of toothpaste.
Toothpaste causes scratches → bacterial growth.

Step 3 — Clean After Meals

Use Cleanadent Wipes.
This prevents bacteria from building up during the day.

Step 4 — Soak Dentures Overnight

Use Liquid Crystal or Powder Crystal.
These kill bacteria and yeast that brushing alone leaves behind.

Step 5 — Weekly Ultrasonic Deep Clean

Use Ultrasonic Cleaner + Liquid Crystal for maximum bacteria removal.

Step 6 — Avoid Sleeping With Dentures

This is one of the most effective infection-prevention steps.

Conclusion

With the proper daily and nightly cleaning system — plus weekly deep cleans — you can dramatically reduce your risk of denture infections.
