Care of removable dentures - a challenge?
The removal of plaque is the primary goal of prophylaxis for the prevention of biofilm-associated diseases such as caries, periodontitis and peri-implantitis. In the case of partial denture wearers, there are some challenges in professional and home prophylaxis measures due to patient age, underlying diseases and the design of the denture. In some cases, the dental team can support the patient with additional measures.
In this webinar, you will learn more about the following themes:
- Possible problems of cleaning dentures
- Tips for professional prophylaxis
- Tips for cleaning at home
- Supportive measure
