Should I clean partial dentures every day?
Yes, you should clean your partial dentures at least once every day. There are different types of partial dentures, so it is important to know how to clean them properly. Never use toothpaste or your regular toothbrush to clean them. You will want to have a separate brush to clean your prosthesis and use only soap and water to remove debris. You can let them soak in approved partial denture cleaners that you can purchase at the store. READ MORE

It is important to see your dental provider at least every 6 months for an exam and preventative cleanings to combat gingivitis. READ MORE
What drinks to avoid with Invisalign?
Great question. Invisalign, or other clear aligner brands, can attract stains from the foods and drinks that we consume. Dark beverages like coffees, teas and wines will stain your trays if you wear them while consuming them. It is best to remove your trays before eating and drinking. It is also a good idea to brush and rinse before replacing them in your mouth. READ MORE
