Long Term Storage of Dentures11/02/2009 |
I just got new dentures, and want to save my old ones, for emergencies. What is the best way to store my old ones? I previously put them in water, however they become moldy. I`d appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.
I will suggest to store in a dry plastic container (small plastic box with cover). If they will be reused, you will need to put them in water for at least 24 hours prior to use.
