Should partial dentures be kept in water?

I got partial dentures 2 days ago. Should partial dentures be kept in water?

Yes if not in mouth
Good question.  The correct answer depends upon which material your partial is made from.  To err on the safe side, store it in water and consult the dentist who fabricated the partial.  She/he will be able to tell you if your partial is made from a material that requires a water bath or not.  Hope this helps.   Mary Swift DDSDallas Laser Dentistrywww.dallascosmeticdentist.us

You should store them in water when you sleep to protect them from heat that could cause distortion, and or your pets from chewing on them.
