Abstract
A paste brushing method (Complete) and soaking in either of two denture cleanser tablet solutions (Efferdent or Polident) were compared for denture cleansing effectiveness as measured by plaque level. The 12-week product use period with weekly evaluations allowed an assessment of plaque reaccumulation on the denture surface as well as the effect of a single cleansing event and the contribution of bleaching to the total plaque-cleansing activity. The paste/brushing method was consistently the more effective procedure for removal of denture plaque. However, the bleaching effects of the effervescent tablets could be useful in an overall denture hygiene program.Mesh：
