[Experimental and clinical evaluation of stomatological cleaning agents with special reference to the Eladent...

The experimental and clinical testing of certain denture cleaners, viz., Eladent, Kukident and Steradent, yielded identical good results. As far as possible, Eladent should be dissolved in warm water (35-40 degrees C). In this case, the tablets will dissolve within 15-20 minutes. For immediate cleaning, the tablets may be dissolved within 1 or 2 minutes by raising the water temperature at 50 degrees C. No striking immediate effect can be expected from this cleaner in case of stained dentures which have been worn for many years. The cleaner improves little by little the hygienic condition of the denture. It is recommended to apply the cleaning tablets immediately after insertion of the prosthesis at regular intervals. In this way, soft deposits and plaques will no longer adhere and cause the formation of hard deposits.
