Introduction

Bad breath associated with dental prostheses affects more than one in two wearers. This often taboo problem can impact self-confidence, social relationships, and even overall oral hygiene.

The truth is simple:
a dental prosthesis that is not properly maintained becomes a breeding ground for anaerobic bacteria, responsible for bad odors.

1. Why does your prosthesis cause bad breath?

Bad breath is caused by anaerobic bacteria that nest in:

• micro-cracks in the resin,

• moist areas,

• biofilm plaque,

• food residues.

These bacteria produce volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), responsible for a smell of rotten eggs, plastic, or dampness.

2. The 6 main causes

1. Biofilm accumulation

Invisible but extremely odorous.

Solution: UltraClean Pro+™ (42 kHz ultrasound)

---

2. Wearing the prosthesis at night

92% of bacterial growth occurs at night.

Solution: remove and store in SecureBox Pro™

---

3. Insufficient manual cleaning

Brushing alone is not enough to eliminate embedded bacteria.

Solution: FreshTab Pro™ (antibacterial effervescent)

---

4. Coated tongue

80% of bad odors come from the tongue.

Solution: CleanTongue Pro™ (silicone scraper)

---

5. Poor hydration

A dry mouth promotes VSCs.

Solution: drink more + PureSpray Pro™ antibacterial spray

---

6. Food residues

Get trapped under the prosthesis and ferment.

Solution: HydroJet Pro™ water jet

---

3. Mistakes that worsen bad breath

• using toothpaste on the prosthesis

• wearing it at night

• storing it in a damp box

• exposing it to hot water

• drinking coffee/tea before cleaning it

• brushing too hard → micro-scratches → bacteria

---

4. Effective home remedies

1. Baking soda soak (1×/week)

→ naturally sanitizes
→ neutralizes some odors

---

2. Cleaning with mild soap

→ removes stagnant saliva
→ prevents abrasion

---

3. 10-volume hydrogen peroxide (rare)

→ lightens stains
→ limited use to avoid damaging the resin

---

4. Tongue scraping

→ essential step to reduce overall odors
