Chlorhexidine rinse solution | Cleaning the denture

Chlorhexidine rinse solution

Thorough brushing and rinsing of the denture and the additional use of special tablets for cleaning the denture can effectively reduce both bacterial pathogens and other germs on the surface of the artificial teeth. Besides the advantages of using artificial denture cleaning products, there are also some disadvantages.One of the most relevant disadvantages of denture cleaning tablets is the fact that they are not equally effective against all pathogens. Ordinary cleaning agents cannot be effective against a certain pathogen, the fungus (Candida albicans) which is often found inside the oral cavity.

For this reason, a regular application of so-called chlorhexidine rinsing solutions should be carried out in the course of cleaning dentures. These are able to eliminate the dangerous Candida fungus and round off the cleaning of a dental prosthesis for this reason.
