Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dentures should not be wrapped in a paper towel; they should be placed in the denture cup to carry them to the sink. The towel prevents the dentures from being damaged if the teeth are dropped. The nurse can brush the dentures as she would the teeth of a conscious patient. Apply denture adhesive (if used) and insert the dentures, inserting first the upper and then the lower plates, using 4- ´ 4-inch gauze.
