  • Make sure you brush all the surfaces of the dentures, including the surface that fits against your gums. (dentalhealth.org)
  • Additionally, as described in a 1990 review by Budtz-Jörgensen from Switzerland, dentures may increase the acidity and the flow-rate of the saliva which would reduce the clearing of the tissue surfaces by the tongue. (yeastinfection.org)
