These At-home Solutions Can Clean Your Dentures in a Jiffy
- Peroxide bath. This brown-bottled solution is found in almost every teeth whitening solution. Plus, it serves as great everyday cleaner. To clean your dentures with peroxide simply add peroxide and a little water to glass. Then, allow the dentures to soak overnight. Peroxide keeps dentures clean and bright; plus, it’s inexpensive and easily found in just about every pharmacy.
- Baking soda and vinegar solution. Denture cleaners usually bubble and fizz when mixed with water. If you would like a similar, cheaper alternative, use vinegar and baking soda instead. Take a teaspoon of baking soda and add it to your denture cup. Then place the dentures inside, and pour enough vinegar (white distilled) to submerge them. Let those soak overnight and follow your morning cleansing routine as usual.
- Bleach water mixture. Bleach is a known germ-killer and it can make your dentures squeaky clean, too. To make a bleach solution, your Ankeny, IA dentist suggests using two parts of water for every one part of bleach. A bleach water bath cleans and deodorizes exactly like a denture cleaner.
