FAQs

How often should I use Polident tablets?

For best results, use Polident 3 Minute tablets daily.

Can I use Polident tablets on all types of dental appliances?

Polident 3 Minute tablets are suitable for most removable dental appliances, including dentures, retainers, mouthguards, and clear/wired retainers.

What should I do if my appliance has heavy stains?

While Polident helps with stain removal, persistent stains may require additional cleaning methods or professional cleaning from your dentist. For stubborn stains, you can also let the appliance soak for a few extra minutes.

Is it safe to soak my appliance for longer than 3 minutes?

Soaking for longer than 3 minutes is generally safe, but there's no added benefit. It's more important to brush the appliance after soaking.

Can I use hot water with the tablets?

No, it's best to use warm (not hot) water. Hot water can damage some types of dental appliances and may affect the effectiveness of the tablets.

What is the shelf life of Polident tablets?

Check the packaging for the expiration date. Using expired tablets may reduce their effectiveness.

Do I need to brush my appliance after using the tablets?

Yes, brushing your appliance after soaking helps remove loosened debris and ensures thorough cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Appliance still feels dirty after cleaning.

Ensure you are brushing the appliance after soaking. If stains persist, consider using a denture brush for more thorough cleaning or consult with your dentist.

Solution is not turning blue.

Check the expiration date of the tablets. Make sure the water isn't too hot, as it can affect the dissolving process.

Rinse the appliance more thoroughly and ensure all tablet residue is removed. You can also let the appliance soak for a few extra minutes, if necessary.
