Try to soak your partial in white vinegar for 3-5 mins, then brush the softened tartar off. It will clean very nicely.
It does depend on what type of partial denture you have. If you have one that is all gum colored and kind of flexible, there is a special cleaner to get from your dentist. If the partial has a rigid gum colored material, you can soak these in denture cleaner and use a brush designed for dentures to brush them. DO NOT use regular toothpaste or toothbrush, these are harder and more abrasive, which will lead to scratches on the surface and contribute to bacterial accumulation.
Brush the denture with a soft brush and a toothpaste and then should be soaked in a fizzy solution or OTC Mouthwash. That should be done every day
Tooth brush and soap
I would suggest something like Polident for Partials. Follow the instructions given. It's quick and easy. Do not use bleach, ever, because it can pit and damage the metal on your partial.
Warm water and salt with soft brush.
