About denture cleaner
A denture cleanser removes debris from an appliance that has been taken out of the mouth. A mechanical denture cleaner is a container that agitates a cleansing solution in which the denture is submerged; it is a Class I device (21 CFR 872.3530).
Polishing is the act of making a denture or casting smooth and glossy. A well contoured and polished surface resists the build-up of food debris and bacteria. Studies put the clinically acceptable roughness of hard surfaces in the mouth after polishing at no more than 0.2 micrometres.
An OTC denture cleanser is a powder, tablet or paste that removes debris from removable appliances such as bridges or dentures; the FDA lists it as a Class I device (21 CFR 872.3520).
How denture polish, cleaner and cleaning units differ
- Denture Polish — Abrasives and compounds that smooth and shine the acrylic in the laboratory.
- Denture Cleaner — Removes debris from a finished appliance, outside the mouth.
- Cleaning Accessories — The unit that agitates the cleaning solution, and its parts.
What to look at when choosing
Polishing compound: a study of three heat-cured acrylics got its smoothest surfaces with universal polishing paste, then polishing cake, then pumice and gold rouge.
Why smoothness matters: surface roughness promotes the adhesion and retention of Candida albicans, which is of particular importance in denture stomatitis.
The base material: the acrylic and the thermoplastic polishing sets on this shelf are sold separately.
