Even well-fitting dentures can feel more comfortable with a denture adhesive.
Clean your dentures without scratching
Toothpaste is great for teeth, but not for dentures. Toothpaste contains many ingredients, including fluoride, detergents and abrasives. Abrasives are too harsh for denture material, which is notably softer than tooth enamel. Abrasives can scratch dentures, and odor-causing bacteria can grow in scratches. You can't see those microscopic scratches, but they are the perfect breeding grounds for bacteria.
- Toothpaste is abrasive and can scratch denture material.
- Using toothpaste instead of Polident on dentures leads to rougher denture surfaces.
Rough surfaces encourage more bacterial growth.
- Bacteria can grow in scratches, which can cause bad breath.
Polident is not abrasive. Polident MicroClean unique formula kills 99.9% of odor-causing bacteria. Plus more key microorganisms found on dentures than leading regular toothpastes.*
Cleaning your denture with Polident, as part of a daily oral health routine, helps contribute to good oral health.
