can biotene oral rinse harm dentures in place

It seems not to harm bridges, crowns, and caps, which I think are made of the same stuff.

No. I have been using all of the Biotene products for years and I have upper and lower partials without incident.

I have used prescribed chlorhexidine solutions and tried this product as a much cheaper alternative. This is NOT an equivalent alternative. There is a strong soap component as an inactive ingredient. There is a missing component that is responsible for taste and the sensation in the mouth is quite different (aside from the soap component.) I would strongly recommend that persons do not use this product as a substitute for prescribed dental rinse.

The name. Biotene was originally a human product for dry mouth such as toothpaste, gels, chewing gum, etc. My guess is that Leclede (Biotenes parent company), rebranded the veterinary products to avoid marketplace confusion.

No you should not put this in your mouth. Teeth need to be rinsed before put back in mouth. This solution has too much bleach and does a great job on dentures but not for in the mouth.

Well, interestingly enough I am a dentist(33 years). I found that one can place Benecol in mouth and soften with your saliva till it almost melted away. I would suggest that for a denture patient. Hope this helps.

Yes it does, it also contains, glycerin, which I was surprized to see since dentists recommend it. There is a phone number if you want to talk with them directly. 1-800-922-5856. My dentist also made dental impressions to creat dental molds and ordered floride gel. I fill the trays or molds and bath my teeth in floride for 30 minutes every night. Dry mouth leads to extra germs in the mouth and more cavities. I have been using Biotene for several years and the floride treatment for a year. I do not develop new cavities. Hope this info helps

Yes. If the inside walls get stained, use an effervescent denture cleaning tablet.

This is what I got from customer service, "GO SMiLE products are safe to use on ALL tooth surfaces and dental work. They will not strip or harm your veneers, porcelain crowns, bonding, dentures or other dental work. GO SMiLE products will help remove surface stains from artificial tooth surfaces, but will not whiten them beyond their original color. However, since dental work isn't as porous as natural teeth, your natural teeth may have become darker than your dental work. So GO SMiLE will really help make your teeth "match" again, and your whole smile will look great!"

If the implants are removable. I have implants and my denture fits over the implanted posts. If they are not removable, you cannot place this in your mouth. The denture you are cleansing needs to be placed into a container with Stain Away and water for five minutes, then rinsed.

In the product description it states it cleans dentures, I have not used it for that. I am sorry I can not testify as to its performance in that area.

Juice should be fine in it. Use the cleaning tabs often, should be no problem; the type used to clean dentures are just as good and way cheaper than the brands sold as tabs for drink bottles.

They have changed the formulation of Oral Balance. They have taken out the enzymes and xylitol and it doesn't work at all. It is thinner and burns the back of your mouth and hardly lasts 30 minutes!!! I called 1-800-922-5856 to complain and they will give me a refund for 2 tubes of Oral Balance and one tube of Biotene tooth paste(also without enzymes). I have been using this product for 10 years and it has really helped me at night (I have Sjogrens'). I managed to find some of the original OB at a small pharmacy - the originals will say on the front "Long lasting Symptom Relief" and the new formulation says "New improved pH Balance". What a joke!

I don't know. But I was not happy with the product. I had one for over 10 years and it worked great. Then I bought another and it lost water pressure in a couple of months. I bought another, same thing. I purchased a different model through my dentist with the sonic care toothbrush and I haven't had any issues with it.

I'm not sure...BUT...I have used denture cleaning tablets w/water and silver cleaning solvent and jewlery cleaning solvent undiluted and it did no damage. I have also used a drop of Dawn dish detergent w/water and 1/2 bleach/ 1/2 water. So, I think the answer is yes, you can use acetone without doing damage to the machine.

I don't think it would harm at all. I am very happy with it. My dental hygienist assured me less plaque after just 3 months of usage. I love it.

Yes, you can use this for dentures, it is the same machine that they sell for dental cleaning. As for long it has to be cleaned, I think would depend on the denture / mouth appliance. I use Listerine or that type of product when I put in my mouth appliance, and it comes out great. Then just to be sure, I do a quick brush with the toothbrush and toothpaste after I take it out. The dentist / dental hygienist always comments on how good it looks. Hope this helps!
