This article explains how to clean dentures with Dr Mark’s HyGenie.
- Clean dentures twice a day, morning and night. Dirty dentures collect germs and fungus.
- The HyGenie is a container with brushes inside. It cleans dentures with less handling, so they are less likely to be dropped.
- Always read the instructions that come with it.
Steps
- Open: hold the blue bottom handle and clear body in one hand. Turn the white top handle until it clicks. Lift off the top.
- Put the denture in with the teeth facing down.
- Close: line up the arrows. Press down gently. Twist until it clicks and locks.
- Hold it over a basin. Squeeze 1 to 2 big drops of DentalFresh through the holes. Add a splash of water.
- Turn the top and bottom handles in opposite directions for 30 to 45 seconds, until foam covers the denture.
- Rinse under gently running water while turning the handles. Keep going until the water runs clear.
- Wear the denture, or store it in the HyGenie.
Leave dentures out at night. This rests the gums and lowers the risk of fungus and sore spots.
