My denture has metal bars on it, is it safe to use?

I think it will be safe to use and it will freshen them. This is similar to Efferdent. Hope this helps!

I use it on my retainer which is partly metal and have had no issues at all. Has worked well for me.

Absolutely! I place mine face down in opposite directions. Also, I use the SonicBrite cleaner along with a Polident 3 minute pellet, turn it on at night, then again in the morning for a few minutes just to shake it up a little. Maybe this is overkill, but it melts off all the adhesive on my dentures and no more white residue that I used to see on them. The first set of batteries lasted 2 months. Best 40 bucks I spent in a very long time!

yes it is because it is a magnet which holds it up against the mouth . I would remove it

They are metal, so I would think so, plus it seems like it could hurt your teeth or make them uncomfortable to chew.

Are you drunk? Of course not! Metal is not plastic (last time I checked). Superglue is your only real option here. Unless you want to try soldering them. Or recasting them altogether (if they are lead). Seriously: cyanoacrylic or nothing for you, sir.

I leave it out on a clean washcloth and clean it again before use. I would be more concerned about anaerobic bacteria if it were stored in a closed and possibly damp container but you could possibly keep it in mouthwash, the kind with alcohol or something antiseptic.

I would say "YES". Before I got my new dentures the lab I went to said that it looked like a dentist had relined them. It is easier and less expensive.

It was a gift for a friend's son and I told them to do what I do with my thermos. Go to the store and purchase some inexpensive denture cleaning tablets. Throw a couple in the bottle over night filled with water, then wash with warm water and soap the next day. You could also use a drop of bleach in water. I keep a baby bottle/glass brush on hand if I have something like juice which is sticky and I want to be a bit more thorough. If you feel there is an after taste issue, you can also soak over night once a week with a teaspoon of baking soda in it. Several options for you, I hope that help.

I use them and the unit still works fine for months. The user manual says not to though. I think over time, the metal and ceramic might get damaged, but not if you clean it out between fillings.

Yes you can, it should work fine. However, I would suggest even thinking about investing in a more protective (expensive) mouthguard or one specifically molded by a dentist if you have that option.

I use hot water and a denture brush and a lot of elbow grease and there is always some residue left; even after soaking in smoker's Polydent tabs. How do I clean my dentures to get rid of the residue?

There's a piece of metallic tape that covers the sealing bar. It looks like packaging material, so it's very tempting to remove it. It needs to remain in place

I just use a denture care brush I got from a local store and warm water. Then soak them in Polident Denture Cleaner for 5 minutes. That's it. Never had much ofa hard time getting it off. If it came off too easily it would not be of much benefit in keeping you dentures in.

Nope! You won't be able too. It's literally plastic on your teeth. Don't buy it it's a waste.

I used muratic acid from the hardware store just make sure to rinse real good and apply sealer shortly after because the metal tends to corrode not long after treatment.

I've never noticed any of that but I would say use Bar Keepers Friend. It good for stainless steel.

Yes you can, but be warned. One of mine shorted out, blew up and burned me badly, broke my denture, palate and nose 3 weeks ago.
