Is this weird or possible? TIA HB w/o http://www.dentist.net/dentureFAQ.asp What are the ingredients in Polident that provides cleaning? Polident’s anti-bacterial cleaning system has several ingredients that participate in the cleaning process. The effervescent action (Sodium Bicarbonate and Citric Acid) These are not useful to plants provides mechanical cleaning action to loosen particles from the denture. The effervescent compounds also reduce odor by neutralizing the by-products of bacteria. The enzyme (everlace; Overnight only) breaks down and food proteins in plaque. The oxidants (sodium perborate & potassium monopersulfate) remove stains and whiten the denture teeth. These are likely to be harmful to plants. The detergents (sodium polyphosphate & several others) clean by removing virtually all the particles that were broken down and loosened by the previously mentioned active ingredients. These are not useful to plants either. I see nothing there that would be helpful. D Never saw the usefulness for aspirin or H2O2 for plants.... kinda sound goods, just don't find the science for it. Sounds a bit like feeding excess antibiotics to animals to prevent what you don't know. Now I have used hydrogen peroxide to disinfect my hydro systems and the reservoirs. People always want a 'magic' ingredient regardless of science. D |

Hi i comeback to this community and I have a plastic retainer for bottom teeth, and I was wondering is it safe to those those denture cleaners on it? I was told not to use hot water when cleaning it, but the denture cleaner directions say use hot water. Would it be ok to use cold/warm water please share your good suggestion here?
