To clean dentures of a person who has MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), first, wash your hands thoroughly and wear disposable gloves. Rinse the dentures under running water to remove any debris, then soak them in a solution of water and a diluted disinfectant approved for denture cleaning, ensuring it is safe for the material. Gently brush the dentures with a soft toothbrush to remove biofilm and bacteria, then rinse thoroughly with water before returning them to the individual. Dispose of gloves properly and wash your hands again after cleaning.
