Just like regular teeth, it's important to brush your dentures daily. If your dentures aren't adequately taken care of, they can start to develop tartar and bacteria. Make sure to keep up with a consistent brushing routine every day!
In the event that you crack a tooth, gently rinse out your mouth with warm water to clean the area. Before coming into our office for full treatment, be sure to ice the area with a cold compress to reduce swelling!

Dental emergencies happen, and it's important to know what to do if you ever experience a knocked-out permanent adult tooth! Be sure to keep the tooth moist at all times. If you can, try to place the tooth back into the socket without touching the root. If that's not possible, place it in between your cheek and gums, in milk, or use a tooth preservation product that has the ADA Seal of Acceptance. Then call Centerport Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry at 503-228-1506 immediately for an emergency appointment!
