Is it safe to put dentures in oxi clean, & will it whiten them? (it whitens everything else!!!)?
Answers:
Well, if you soak your dentures in any kind of bleach then you are eventually going to leach the pink out of the acrylic and end up with white gums. The teeth on your denture are, more than likely, a hard type of plastic [we rarely use porcelain teeth any more due to their destruction of the bone] but in any case, the color of them is really pretty stable so you aren't going to be able to change the shade no matter what you do. You can polish the teeth with regular toothpaste periodically but don't do it a lot or you'll wear the teeth down. Hope this helps.
