Denture teeth are softer than natural teeth and can get stained more than teeth.

Your dentures can stain. Depends on the materials that were used to make the dentures. The higher quality teeth are very resistant to staining. Brush your dentures daily with a denture toothbrush and soap and water. You can also soak them daily. Both of these will help prevent staining. See your dentist at least once a year for an exam. The office can also clean your dentures.
