Complete dentures face a lot of backlash when it comes to things like the ability to talk and function without obstruction, to being able to maintain and use the prosthesis for as long a period as desired. To break these spoilers of social stigma, it is necessary to bring to light the various methods by which a complete denture can be used without the associated difficulties. Some of the methods to make this a reality, involve educating the patient about the different ways to maintain proper oral and denture hygiene. This paper thereby aims to bring to notice the various methods with which a complete denture wearer can maintain his oral and denture hygiene with ease.
