#According to Sephardim, dentures need only be cleaned well.<ref>Yechave Daat 1:8</ref>
#According to Ashkenazim, some say that dentures should just be cleaned well, while others require hagalah. A compromise view is to avoid eating hot chametz with them within 24 hours before pesach and clean them well without hagalah.<ref>
* Dvar Charif ch. 7 fnt. 101 notes that some of these reasons don't help for if a person eats a dvar charif on pesach and the taste of the chametz comes out of his teeth.
* Reasons that dentures don't need to be kashered for pesach: our dvar charif's today aren't the ones of the gemara (Moadim Uzmanim cited by Dvar Charif p. 120), the dentures are smooth like glass and don't have beliyot (Minchat Shlomo 2:50), the taste of the food is so pagum because of one's breath and saliva that it can't even be reinvigorated by a sharp food to taste good again (Minchat Shlomo 2:50), the teeth aren't as sharp as knives (Orchot Rabbenu v. 2 p. 27-9). The Steipler said that because of the issue he advised not eating hot chametz within 24 hours of the time when chametz will become forbidden. Some of these reasons apply to filings and braces. [https://www.dafhalacha.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/DHYB-Monthly-Bulletin-Kislev-5780-English-11-29-19-EMAIL.pdf Dirshu (Kislev 5780)] summarizes some of the poskim on this topic. Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky (Kovetz Halachot Piskei Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky Pesach p. 127) is lenient on dentures, fillings, and braces no to require hagalah as long as one didn't eat hot chametz or dvar charif of chametz within 24 hours of the time of chametz becoming prohibited.</ref> According to Sephardim, dentures need only be cleaned well.<ref>Yechave Daat 1:8</ref>
