Novadent contains a blend of oxidizing salts that remain active for 7 consecutive days. The Novadent solution cleans microporosities and works in depth to eliminate bacteria, viruses, fungi, tartar and plaque. Novadent dissolves organic matter at the microscopic level, eliminating the need for brushing before soaking.
Microbes, tartar and plaque are continuously building up. Daily soaking significantly reduces the risk of infections caused by dentures and appliances. Daily cleaning also helps maintain the appearance, brightness and freshness of dentures and appliances.
Add one Novadent sachet to 185 ml (3/4 cup) of lukewarm water. Rinse denture or appliance with lukewarm water. Soak denture or appliance for 15 minutes a day. Remove denture or appliance from the soaking bath. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, while brushing with a soft-bristle brush.

Novadent 7-Day Formula provides complete, deep cleaning. It kills microbes and fungi, and removes tartar and plaque. Dentures and dental appliances are left clean and smooth. Using Novadent 7-Day Formula also reduces the volume of solution to be prepared, the quantity of water needed for cleansing and the quantity of waste from packaging.
A 15-minute soak once a day is all it takes to thoroughly clean most dental appliances. Novadent solution remains active for 7 days. After 7 days, the solution must be discarded and replaced by a new preparation.
Novadent is intended for external use only. A residual taste indicates that the denture or appliance was not rinsed thoroughly. Repeat thorough rinsing with lukewarm water.

The Novadent solution dissolves the tiniest organic particles that stick to dentures and appliances. By eliminating organic micro-particles, food doesn't adhere as easily and the denture remains smoother.
Most denture and appliance cleaners contain detergents that lift and loosen larger organic particles. The particles in suspension make the water cloudy.
In contrast, Novadent 7-Day Formula contains a blend of oxidizing ingredients that totally dissolve organic micro-particles, making them invisible to the eyes.
No, the ingredients contained in one sachet are balanced for 185 ml (3/4 cup) of water. Reducing or increasing the proportion of crystals in the water will not result in a satisfactory cleaning.
Adding more crystals will not increase the strength of the cleaning solution. However, a longer soaking time will increase the cleaning efficiency.
Yes, but it should be noted that, if a denture is worn or poorly maintained, it will contain a greater accumulation of microbes, tartar and plaque.
