Denture Cleansers
FDA has issued a warning on the use of denture cleansers. It has asked the manufacturers of denture cleansers to change their label to clarify that their products are designed to clean dentures in a container and not in the mouth. There has been some reports of allergies to one of the ingredients called persulfate including at least one death. Although it seems like most of these reaction were due to misuse of the cleansers but the reaction might also occur when the cleanser is used as directed. Possible signs of allergic reaction may include irritation, tissue damage, rash, hives, gum tenderness, breathing problems, and even low blood pressure. Reactions may not occur immediately and it can occur after many years of use. At Seattle Cosmetic dental office the well being of our patients is our utmost concern. People at risk are those who can not read or understand product labels.
