After a complete denture is delivered to a patient, the next steps include providing guidance on its care and maintenance, as well as ensuring comfort and functionality. The patient should be educated on proper cleaning techniques, including brushing and soaking methods for denture. They should also be advised on the importance of regular dental check-ups to monitor the fit of the denture and address any potential issues. Instructions on handling and storing the denture when not in use should also be given. Additionally, the patient may need time to adjust to wearing the denture, so follow-up appointments may be scheduled to address any discomfort or adjustments needed for optimal comfort and functionality.
