Implant-supported overdenture

Care for an implant-supported overdenture

This type of removable denture is snapped on to implant abutments or a connecting bar. It is important to clean all areas properly – the abutments, the connecting bar as well as  the removable overdenture.

A single tufted brush, such as TePe Compact Tuft or TePe Interspace, is ideal for brushing the abutments. If you have a connecting bar, you can use an interdental brush for cleaning under the bar. TePe Denture brush has extra long and strong filaments for efficient cleaning of the overdenture, and should not be used in the mouth.  

Ask your dentist/hygienist for advice on what cleaning devices and techniques best suit you.
